1、1The library buildings in college and humanistic careAbstract. With the human society stepping into modern civilized information age， libraries which are continuously profound in their modernization， respect readers first， in order to “meet humans demand， realize their value and pursuit their develo

2、pment” which has become the goal to libraries for their development and value achievement. Gradually the concept of people-oriented is increasingly blended in library construction， document information service， business workflow and personnel management work. In the library construction work， it is

3、significant to embody the humanistic care in the library buildings and concern about the different reader groups physical and psychological requirements. Key words： library buildings； humanistic care； college 1.The library location problem The ancient library was called temple or yard. Mental pursui

4、t of “Harmony“ was the best reflection to the humanistic spirit. In selecting site and setting up environment， ancient 2library attached importance not only to beautiful sceneries， but also to humanistic factors like historic site. Besides， it further emphasized on the harmonization between human an

5、d natural environment. Most of its buildings were selected near the mountain and by the river， or to the places with certain cultural symbolism. 2.The librarys layout and humanistic care 2.1 The interior layout should highlight hommization The interior layout of the library should process hommizatio

6、n. The interior design of the modern library should be consistent with humanistic needs. In librarys indoor space， living space ranks first， followed by reading space. In detailed design， we should take more consideration to readers psychological factors. Good environment and layout can satisfy read

7、ers with their psychological needs from the vision， hearing， sense of touch， and other aspects as well as physical needs， so that it can exert relaxed and pleasant psychological effects to improve learning and reading. “The harmony of the interior design in structure and layout” is the core of a lib

8、rary. It refers to whether have the ability to provide the readers with a beautiful and comfortable learning environment. From the ornaments of furniture， lighting， 3artwork， sculpture， showcase and bonsai， we can still find the cultural connotation of the librarys internal environment！ That is a li

9、brary should be designed to meet the humanistic needs. 2.2 Use colors to create a cultural atmosphere of the library Peoples perception of colors causes physiological reaction at a shallow level， and affects their emotional and mental state at a deep level， which rises association， reminiscence and

10、other psychological changes. Different colors have different physiological stimulation effects. The research shows that： warm colors can contribute to pupil dilation and accelerated pulse rates. Especially the strong irritant colors of yellow， red， orange， can give people vigor and passion. When the

11、 color brightness and saturation are greater， their effects will be more obvious. 2.3 Manifestation of the humanistic care in the librarys environment The librarys environment includes the external environment and internal environment. A university library is not isolated. It is surrounded by green

12、space with rockery， water， stone benches， lawns， flowers and trees， which set the external environment off “static“ and “elegant“. In 4addition， the statues of educator Confucius， blending with the surroundings can highlight the unique culture in Normal Colleges Librarys external environment. The ar

13、rangement of using natural scenery and cultural landscape to cultivate and infiltration readers knowledge mentality and elegant behaviors， can easily reflect the humanistic care of the external environment. It should also be mentioned here that the external environment of the library should also con

14、sider its night lighting problem. External lighting is using light to shape the image of the building at night， thus to display a unique art style. This night lighting should be clearly distinguished from general functional lighting； it has obvious decorative and artistic effects. 2.4 Traffic space

15、of the library The cultural environmental construction of the library is to strengthen the communication among readers， which is embodied by the design of buildings contacts space. It roots from readers psychological needs of various interaction， communication and attribution. The library as readers

16、 common used place， its interaction space contributes readers to the communication of knowledge， thoughts and feeling， and the space also helps them to get recognized by others and achieve 5personal value. The library traffic space is the most frequently used sites. In transport space， walkways， ram

17、ps， stairs， ladder halls and lobbies， it plants green， places comfortable tables， chairs and sofa， or sets poster panels in order to create a comfortable， attractive space environment， and to achieve both a carrier of knowledge communicating and a place for resting and waiting to meet the various ne

18、eds of the people. 2.5 Lay emphasis on stretching variability of building space A large library building can work several decade years. During these years， the number of books， readers and staff will be increased. With the advancement of science and technology， the processing means， storage conditio

19、ns， service mode， and management methods may also be changed， so the library building should set aside room for future development， fully considering the elements that may be required by the predictable future. For example， the integrated wiring system of the library is the biggest change brought by

20、 digital library technology， and the main indicators to measure todays library are the informationized interface density provided by the integrated wiring system and connectivity between inside database and outside database. 6According to the requirements of modern architecture， the library should b

21、e built as an intelligent building， with intelligent premises distribution system. The common used wiring system of the library should have the existing and potential week current building function， try to be consistent with the rapid updating IT， spread the necessary elements of digital network int

22、erface all over the library and leave sufficient expansion room for users， in order to adapt to the needs of digitization and network. Otherwise， once the wiring is completed， especially after the interior decoration， changing the covered cable must break the ground and wall， which would cause a hug

23、e waste of manpower material resources and financial power. 2.6 Management mode restricts construction mode Management mode restricts construction mode， while construction mode promotes management mode. Concerning readers and staffs physical and mental health， we should build office area and reading

24、 area in well-ventilated， sunny place. Toilets can be divided into readers and employees. Readers toilet should be built in a striking position. Book collection method is closely related to the functional layout. 3.The modern informationized library and humanistic care 7We must adhere to the people-

25、oriented， which reflects humanistic care. The library， as a public welfare institution， has the purpose of serving the people. Adhering to the people-oriented， the library should take care of the weak. With the development of market economy， the requirement to people from every walk of life is highe

26、r and higher. Faced with the rapid process of modernization， everyone needs to update their knowledge， and the library is the best place to acquire re-education and self-taught. Only filled of humanistic care， will the library become the good place for studying； only equipped with beautiful environm

27、ent， will the library help those poor students to settle themselves down to search for mental food， and further help to maintain the peace and harmony of the society. 3.1 Establish the service concept of readers oriented. Bacon said： “the power of knowledge not only depends on the value of its own s

28、ize， but also depends on whether it is spread and the depth and breadth of the propagation.“ Only stick to “reader-oriented“ and meet readers increasing needs， will the library obtain readers recognition and support； only by attracting a large number of readers， will the library have vigor to flouri

29、sh. The so-called “reader-8centered” is a pursuit of respecting humanism and nature. That is to say the Library Services should consider the actual needs of readers by putting ourselves in the sake of them. And the library should hold that meeting the needs of readers on reading as a fundamental pri

30、nciple， and provide different services of knowledge， literature and information to different needs. 3.2 The library buildings humanistic care With the development of electronic computers and modern communications technology， librarianship steps in the modernization and internationalization. Library

31、construction enters into the third generation. Different from traditional library which is centered in collections， the modern library is emphasized on people-oriented. That is function， flow lines， layout， facilities design， inside and outside environments build are aimed to people-centered， sharin

32、g kindness and consideration to readers everywhere. It full considers readers willing and habits to facilitate them using document information and communicating. Its greatest goal is to providing readers with a comfortable， beautiful environment. 3.3 The library automation system The library automat

33、ion system refers to the automatic 9control system throughout the library. It is composed of intelligent building automation system， fire-fighting linkage automation system and security automation system. Intelligent building automation system covers power distribution system， lighting system， eleva

34、tor monitoring system， air conditioning system， water supply and drainage system， in addition， it also covers the monitoring of HVAC system and heat and cold sources and water system. The functionality of the intelligent building automation system is to create a safe， comfortable and warm environmen

35、t for the readers to learn and work. The fire-fighting linkage automation system is mainly for fire alarm and fire linkage. Once the library catches fire， the automatic alarm system and fire linkage system will make countermeasures， and promptly issue a directive to the other systems， so that other

36、systems can quickly get response and gain time to reduce losses. Security automation systems covers access control systems， anti-theft alarm system， TV monitoring system and patrol management system. When the TV monitor of anti-theft security system detects illegal pilfer or any bad behavior， it wil

37、l immediately signal alarm； places like entrance， exit will be able to take the appropriate measures. 3.4 Scientificalness of scale 10Networked of document information content enable university library not only to provide borrow services of printed literature， but also to add information consultant

38、and service items based on network， electronic literature， lecture hall， an exhibition hall. Therefore， the University Librarys scale is no longer running after the endless expansion of the collections space physically， but requiring the expansion of cyberspace. It should not only be equipped with r

39、eading room， retrieval hall， e-reading room， multimedia audio-visual room， network retrieval room， but also add up some other function rooms. For example， in common university libraries there are academic lecture halls， exhibition halls of science or new achievements， extracurricular study rooms， pe

40、rsonal labs， team-discussion rooms， and also ancillary cultural industrial space for graphic processing， making courseware， binding book， adopting culture and even for drinking a cup of coffee. The University Library has become an open， multi-functional and comprehensive literature information center and cultural activities center. 3.5 Reader-oriented Service is the eternal theme of the library work， and also root of a library. “Readers oriented and service foremost”
