Main tasks: The main tasks, the solution of which will allow organizing the effective functioning of the library-media library, are: - the formation of a full-fledged media fund and fund on traditional paper media: collection, accumulation, processing and systematization of information, computer cataloging and processing of information resources; -creation of infrastructure to provide the school with new information carriers; - ensuring accessibility to various information resources; -providing the necessary information to all readers of the library: students, parents, teachers and other school employees; -providing free access to Internet resources for learning and self-education.
Preparatory stage: 1.Study public opinion: a) develop the text of the questionnaire (appendix); b) interview 1.1 Collection of primary information: a) answers to interview questions; b) completed questionnaire forms; c) sketches of the interior of the library: d) records of the research 2. Study of the intended problem: 2.1. determine the search circle (scheme); 2.2. comprehension of the received information; 2.3. creation of a dictionary of unfamiliar terms. 3. Information processing: 3.1. selection of the type of results presentation: report, table, etc. manually; 3.3. on the computer.
Design is an idea, a little fantastic and unusual, so that the artistically designed library interior items evoke in the reader a sense of satisfaction, enthusiasm for work, joy from visiting the library Design is grace and beauty, convenience and comfort
In order to consider the problem comprehensively, it is necessary to single out several zones in the library: zone 1: "Librarian's place", zone 2: "Computer zone", zone 3: "Place for easy reading", zone 4: "Theatrical", zone 5: "Reading room" zone 6: "Reference and bibliographic apparatus of the library" zone 7: "Mini printing house of the school library"
Zone 1: "Librarian's place" The zone for the librarian should be convenient, modest and at the same time everything for the librarian's work should be at hand: a computer with databases, an electronic catalog, communication with the computer zone. The corner is located so that it is convenient to control all zones. Nearby there should be a shelf with teaching materials. I think that it is pleasant for a librarian to have a modern table, of an unusual, non-standard form.
With the rapid development of New Information Technologies, especially telecommunications, media libraries should also become technology centers. New stage in their development will come with the advent of an automated library catalog and computer stations for working with CD-ROMs. automated library systems partially or completely must be installed in all school media libraries. Open access over the network to catalogs of other libraries, online databases, e-mail. For schoolchildren, it is recommended to open only limited access to Internet resources. For this, a "Computer Zone" was created. We have developed a computer multifunctional table, where shelves for both books and CDs are conveniently located. This table is also comfortable when working on the Internet. Several people can work at the table at the same time, as it involves from 3 to 4 jobs. If you do not know the rules for using a computer or how to work with the Internet, then there are booklets with such rules at the top. Zone 2: "Computer Zone"
Metal cabinet for compact storage of multimedia media for 2860 storage units. The cabinet is a full-sized vertical storage module (rack). The cabinet has thirteen drawers on full extension roller guides and a central lock for two hinged doors. Each of the 13 trays is divided by five metal dividers into 6 compartments along the depth of the cabinet. Cabinet capacity CD (compact disc) or 5720 slim CD 1 tray CD or 440 slim CD Overall dimensions - mm. 914х457х1987Н Additional accessories - a removable pull-out shelf for the convenience of working with the fund in the storage room
Zone 5: "Reading room" Frequently used items, such as furniture for the reading room, are tried to be made calm in shape and color so that they do not bother and absorb too much attention. By this, the designers want to emphasize that furniture should be an assistant to the reader, be an unobtrusive, calm subject tone, on which the reader's diverse activities unfold. The shape of the table should be simple. Coloring should not be variegated, so as not to tire the reader's eyes. Tables are painted in gray-blue, light brown and salad colors. The main criterion for a designer product is usefulness. A designer product should not only be beautiful, have external appeal, but its main purpose should be to be useful, then it will become pleasant, convenient, safe, light, not requiring additional spiritual and physical strength person.
Zone 7: "School Library Mini Printing House" A modern library-media library must have equipment not only for searching and viewing all kinds of materials, but also for creating them. Therefore, it is necessary to create a zone where there will be a mini printing house and collect all the equipment here: a risograph, sound and video recording equipment. Using this technique, students and teachers will be able to independently print up to 130 copies per minute, in a matter of minutes print the required circulation of educational and methodological materials and control tasks, texts and articles from the Internet, author's books of teachers, research works of students. With this technique, children can release school newspaper, collections the best essays, messengers and almanacs, etc. Record video editing, soundtrack for events.
Efficiency evaluation Implementation of the project will allow: - to improve the service of the library readers; - timely and qualitatively provide students, parents and teachers with information resources on traditional and non-traditional media; - in 5 years to have a full-fledged media fund and an updated fund of educational, methodological, reference and fiction. - conduct the process of acquisition of electronic resources in accordance with the profile educational activities schools, ensuring its completeness and expediency; - have access to a variety of information via the Internet; - qualitatively change the content of the reference and bibliographic work; - respond as fully as possible to thematic requests, including the retrospective aspect and the use of world information resources; - Provide all participants educational process the possibility of mastering the skills of working in various information retrieval systems; - connect to other information centers, bases of other libraries; - to conduct training and consultations on the use of any media; - assist teachers in preparing for lessons using information technologies; - provide educational process methodological materials through databases, electronic encyclopedias, etc. - use modern multimedia technologies; - make copies on magnetic media, scan, print documents.

3. Reading has a positive effect on the environment.
If you are reading a book, it means that the tree from which it is made was not cut down in vain.

You will never get tired of reading books, because there are so many of them, several lifetimes are not enough to read them all. You have to try many different genres before you find books that you really enjoy. Don't give up until you find "your" book, because it can change your life.

Parents, teachers and other adults will be so happy to see the child reading that they will not pull it once again.

Don't be afraid to gain extra pounds. A reading person does not need high-calorie food to cope with the hardships of a boring life. With a book, you can travel as far as you want and make your wildest dreams come true. It’s harder to seduce you with popcorn: after all, the “movie” is already going on in your head.

Fund registration
Open access is the face of every library and is created primarily for readers. It depends on how it is organized and designed, how readers will perceive it, whether they will feel comfortable here, whether they themselves will be able to freely navigate in it in order to find the necessary literature.
The main principles of the design of the fund: taking into account the age characteristics of readers; finding your style in design; choice of theme, hero-mascot (library, department); artistic solution(font, color); development of themes, colors, symbols in the design of shelf dividers; a visual reflection of the close relationship between the library and the reader; accounting individual features libraries (volume of fund, area, etc.); changing the structure of the racks (where possible). How did each children's branch library implement the idea of transforming an open fund?
The staff of the Zaitsev Central Children's Hospital (head of service I. Paimysheva) updated two subscriptions and a reading room. Employees of each department came up with an emblem, symbols, chose color. So, the subscription serving preschoolers and students of 1-3 and 4-5 grades is issued in space style and is called the "Third Planet". (The design is based on Kir Bulychev's book "The Secret of the Third Planet".) Gromozeka (one of the heroes of the book) became the symbol of the department - kind, sympathetic, inquisitive. Literature indexes are made in the form of flying saucers. Their color fully matches the color of the shelf dividers: blue and green - for scientific and educational literature, red and yellow - for fiction.
The bookcase with literature for students of 2-3 grades was named "To you, pioneers!". Non-traditional names were given to shelf dividers: scientific and educational literature - "Knowers" (about the world), "There is a Russian side" (history), "Gamronauts" (games, crossword puzzles, homemade products); fiction - "Tales Gathered Together", "Country of Unread Books", "Poetic Rainbow", etc.
Pupils in grades 4-5 were offered books on a shelf with the title "To you, old-timers!". Thematic dividers received the following names: scientific and educational literature - "From time immemorial", "Teaching is not torment", "About our smaller brothers"; fiction - "Your golden shelf", "About boys and girls", "Miracles and secrets".
On a separate shelf there is an exhibition "Treasures of the Starry Sky", which demonstrates the library's concern for readers. Its sections: "The most read astronauts" - a shelf exhibition of the reader's form; "Lords of the Universe" - presented literature about the writers-anniversaries and works; "Help-ka" - a shelf exhibition of recommendatory bibliography: recommendatory lists, bookmarks, advertisements for books and magazines, as well as thematic card indexes; "The charm of old editions" - a shelf exhibition of undeservedly forgotten books.
making out open access, librarians have not forgotten about the debtors. A poster was put up saying "The Galactic Patrol is looking for them." It presents a list of those who did not hand over literature to the library on time. The unconventional name and bright design attract the attention of readers, including the penalty boxers themselves.
I must also say about the corner of the bibliography, made in red colors. The symbol of the Gromozek Department, present in this corner, shows the children that with the help of a systematic and illustrated catalog, a book can be selected. This cheerful, bright little man reminds children about the deadline for returning the book. It is written on a poster located at the librarian's chair.
Subscription, serving students in grades 6-9, is decorated in a marine style. And the name was given to him romantic, one might say, adventure - "Columbus". Attributes of open access have become a globe, a card file for teenagers to help school curriculum"Spark in the ocean", bibliographic game "Wind of Wanderings".
Literature of open access is located on three shelves under the following titles: "The lonely sail turns white" - fiction classic literature(shelf dividers and bookmarks are made in blue and white); "Meeting in the wardroom" - recommendatory bibliography and forms of the most active readers; "Ways-roads of a desert island" - scientific and educational literature. (Shelf dividers and header are in green and yellow.)
The reading room deserves special attention. Choosing a topic that would reflect his work, the librarians settled on detective genre, because in reading room there is a daily painstaking search for information, inquiries are being made in response to complex, sometimes confusing requests from readers, no less secret and incomprehensible than the plot in an exciting detective story.
The emblem is an open book and enigmatic, inquisitive, mysterious and inquisitive painted eyes that want to know everything. The emblem is decorated in black, blue and red colors. The same colors were taken for the design of the bibliographic search game "Connoisseurs are on the trail." The game is located in bookcases, where thematic folders and collections of local history are presented, reflecting the main direction of the library's work - local history.
A colorful poster invites readers to answer three groups of questions: about memorable places in Nizhny Novgorod and the region; about historical places Sormovsky district; anniversaries associated with the life of famous Nizhny Novgorod residents. The one who answered all the questions receives the title of True Nizhny Novgorod. The purpose of the game is to draw the attention of readers to the local history fund and teach them to independently search for information.
With great imagination and fiction approached decoration open access library named after Brinsky (head of the branch N. Potapova).
Three open access racks are combined into a large "Pochitayka House". The owner of the house is the man Pochitayka, who is a symbol of the library, he presents the best books, new magazines to readers, indicates the return date, etc. In this house, the shelves are the entrances, the bookshelves are the floors, the shelf dividers are the keys, and the reader's address of the literature on each rack is indicated on the locks of the house: 2-3 cells., 4-5 cells., 6-9 cells. Keys, locks for each age are made in a certain color: red, yellow, green. And to make it easier for children to navigate in the public domain, a "traffic light" system has been developed and presented in the form of a traffic light man.
Consonant with the open access of the Brinsky library, the design of open access at the children's department of the M. Lomonosov library (head of the branch N. Mashkina). Here, open access is presented to readers-children by a whole "Read-street", where each rack is a house with a certain number: 1/3 4/6, 7/9 (the number indicates the age of the readers to whom the books are addressed). The inhabitants of these houses are books and literary heroes: Carlson, cat Matroskin, Thumbelina and others, and each is located behind its own shelf divider. Shelf dividers are made in the form of house windows. There are many such windows, which allows you to fully reveal the fund. The color scheme of shelving-houses is also successful. Three houses - three colors: lemon, pink and white. Thanks to the color and numbering, readers can immediately find their "home" on the fabulous "Read-street". The features of the design of open access of this library are simplicity, clarity and accessibility for readers-children.
The open access library named after A. Matrosov (head of the branch L. Slastnikova) is designed in an original way. For a very limited area The subscription provides open access for readers of all ages. It is located in such a way that the children do not interfere with each other to choose literature.
For preschool children, a corner "How to be able to read well" is allocated. Colored sigils on brochure books (yellow and red triangles) help not to confuse books and to orientate in what kind of literature it is - fiction (poems, stories, fairy tales) or scientific and educational (about animals, plants, technology).
For middle-aged readers, literature is collected under the heading "Treasure Island". The guide to this "island" is made in the form of a map located on open book. On the map, books on the most different topics: "Castle of Wonders" -adventure; "Spring of poetry" - poetry; "Peak of Victory" - about the war; "Volcano of History" - historical literature; "The Naturalist's Trail" is about the natural world.
Exactly the same conventional signs placed on the boxes where the books are located, and on the books themselves. This allows children to quickly find the literature they are interested in, and librarians to quickly arrange the fund. Captain Flint has become a symbol of open access for middle-aged readers, who invites those who wish to visit Treasure Island.
Open access for students in grades 7-8 is located on the shelf under the heading "Reading Circle". Here, each thematic separator has its own color. And books behind a separator of a certain color have a stripe on the spine of the same color as the shelf separator itself (for example, the divider "In the world of fantasy" is made purple, and the books in this section have a purple stripe on the spine, etc.). This solution helps in choosing necessary literature and, of course, facilitates the arrangement of the fund.
In the children's department of the Lenin Komsomol Library (headed by N. Golomidova), the open access fund is one of the largest among the district's children's libraries. It is located on six racks. The librarians thought over the title and color of each section for readers of different age groups.
So, for students of grades 1-3, a rack with literature, decorated in yellow tones, called "Romashkovo" was allocated. Its symbol was a cartoon train, which in poetic form invites readers to get acquainted with books.
Pupils in grades 4-6 enter the "Fairytale Castle", which is made in red-brown tones, where they are met by Queen Book. She is the symbol of the fund section. And from the address poem, you can learn about what literature is presented here and for whom.
In blue and blue tones, the open access section "Book Sea" appears before readers of grades 7-9. The ship, flying at full sail, personifies the desire of teenagers for knowledge, discoveries, and travel. On a blue scroll, children can read a poem - a wish for good luck in sailing the sea of books.
This design solution for open access shelving helps visitors easily and quickly navigate the fund and find the necessary literature.
The staff of the Kassil Library (Head L. Fedotova) started working with open access by changing the location of the shelves. They were placed at a considerable distance from each other, which eliminated the illusion of a solid object and drew attention to a separate rack. Each shelf with literature is addressed to readers of a certain age: younger, middle, older. The "Corner of a preschooler" is also highlighted. Search desired book facilitate various color scheme shelf dividers for each department of literature.
A voluminous multi-colored polyhedron, suspended on a thread between the shelves, attracts the attention of readers. You can twist this "toy" and determine which theme corresponds to a certain color of shelf dividers and sigls on the book. For example: green - ecology, red - history, yellow - fiction, etc.
Summing up, it must be said that each team showed fiction, professional excellence, creativity, individuality. Thanks to this, open access in every library has become brighter, more attractive, updated, unique and more accessible to young readers.

Children's Library Design Tips
Advice for parents
Children's Library Design Tips.
What could be easier to organize at home children's library: Bought the book and put it on the shelf. But it turns out that everything is not as simple as we would like it to be, the formation of a circle children's reading depends on many factors: This age features child, his interest in literature and the tasks that we want, creating a home children's library. We can generally omit the conversation about this if we are adults at the stage of preschool childhood fully implemented the main tasks: development of interest in the book and respect for it. But, unfortunately, all this happens now rarely, because books in our homes have powerful rivals: TV, video, computer, tablets.
Have you ever thought about question: “What can a book give your child?” But the book is where children draw a lot knowledge: the first ideas about time and space, about the connection between man and nature and the objective world, which contributes to the expansion children's outlook. Through literary works kids for the first time on themselves courage and ability, good and evil, learn universal human values like humanity, justice, friendship, sympathy, i.e. books open and purify the soul, educate good feelings. Books are inexhaustible source for the development of intelligence and creativity, and not only children, but also adults. In this regard, we advise very carefully and legibly treat the organization and selection of books in the house. Adults should remember that the book is attractive small child registration. Appearance books should be attractive: different forms covers, beautiful bright illustrations.
At home library there should be different types of books.
The first stage is a toy book, a picture book, which is given to the child from an early age. (up to a year). But it is not yet literature. In these books, the visual image prevails over the verbal one, the drawings are of primary importance. K. I. Chukovsky noted that this period is important in mastering speech and a book that gives rich visual impressions will be a good helper in this matter.
The child who took early age a book in hand and who has received pleasure from communicating with it will continue to reach for the book and become an avid reader.
The second stage is the cutting book. A book with a cover cut out according to the office of the subject about which in question in the text, and its playful external decor also helps to attract the child to get acquainted with the content.
The third stage is a panorama book. It is not only vividly illustrated, but also equipped with moving figures. Action with the help of these figures in it, as it were, come to life. By manipulating them, the child not only joins the rhythm of the text, but also lives through what is happening with the characters.
It must also be remembered that in library kid must have books different type reflections reality: not only fairy tales, but also realistic literature not only prose, but also poetry.
Up to 3-4 years old, children should be surrounded by picture books such as pop-ups and toy books with predominantly illustrations and a short text: “Ryaba Hen”, “Magpie-crow”, etc. After 3 years, it is important to adhere to one of the basic rules - in the field of view of the child there should be from 3 to 5 books with vivid illustrations and plots available for this age. This books: A. Barto “Toys”, “Wolf and seven kids”, “Kolobok”, “Teremok”, “Three Bears”, etc.
It is good to update the repertoire of books in 2 - 3 weeks, introducing one new book each, and with a surprise or encouragement, For example:
Today the book brought you a very interesting book "Cat's House".
Grandma and I decided to give you a new fairy tale- you really love and take care of books.
At 4 years old and older, it is very important to tell the child that there is food at home. children's library. And together with the child, it is necessary to organize it correctly, that is, systematize according to the type adult: fairy tales, books of one author; according to the seasons, stories about animals, books foreign authors, poems, riddles, encyclopedias, etc. It is important to isolate each division with a cardboard partition with a picture - a symbol denoting a particular section. It's good to name your library(for example, “Book House”) and gradually build it up.
But do not forget that books also love care. Next to the “Book House”, you can place the “Book Hospital” corner, where materials and tools for repairing books will be stored. We recommend that you do this with your children. This will help educate careful attitude and love for books. Pay attention to printing decor illustrations and of course the content.

Every day we are confronted with information "pouring" on us from all sides. Almost everywhere, and in the library too, we see stands, leaflets, leaflets that we ... simply do not notice anymore. Do our readers read our stands? Do they find the information they need there?
I note that fellow methodologists on the topic of information stands have written pretty good recommendations. Let's start with them, actually.
..." The main goal in attracting readers to the library is not so much the introduction of various services, but ensuring their demand, promotion of intellectual products and the same services.
Promotion- This various forms information, persuasion of users, or reminders of library services and products.
Main tasks promoting library services are:
formation of a prestigious image (image) of the library in the minds of the population, representatives of local authorities, public organizations etc.;
informing about new services introduced by the library;
maintaining the popularity of existing library services, persuading users to claim them;
informing potential users about the time, place and conditions for the provision of services;
focusing user attention on specific properties and the benefits of the library services offered, on the freeness of basic forms of service.
The first photos on the topic "library", "library". The use of these words is the most popular in the name of the stands - here is the world, and the city, and the dossier, and the corner with the courier. In my opinion, any names look decent, the main thing is that the "courier" promptly changes information, the "world" reflects the "global" scale, and the "dossier" ... by the way, what is in your "information dossier", gentlemen- librarians?
We continue to study information stands. Colleagues suggest filling the resource with the following materials:
Basic information: name of the library; the library network of which it is a part; mode of operation; FULL NAME. librarian; composition of the fund
The goals and objectives of the library in the organization of library services to the population;
Rules for using the library;
Information about the services offered by the library, about the forms of their provision;
Information about amateur associations, interest clubs (if any): work plan, goals, objectives, etc.;
Diplomas, gratitude for the results achieved in the work;
Announcements about current events, monthly work plans, etc.;
Publishing products.
Each of the stands, in my opinion, is worthy of our attention. What do you think?
And while you are looking at the photos, I will continue.We all understand thatThe information stand should be located in a convenient place for users to familiarize themselves. It is desirable to glaze the stand, especially if it is located outside the library. Materials, announcements must be updated in a timely manner so that the stand does not contain outdated information. Of course, use a computer set. What else? How do you like the presence of the word "information" in the title of the stands? Here, it seems, good word but librarians sometimes get carried away and we read and read and read "information". Better to have Library City.
Just a couple of lines about design of materials. And above in the photo and below you will see the design options. This is a personal (and financial) matter for each library. But sometimes we see such a picture - some librarians, without further ado, in the proposed "pockets" contain more text and let it hang for themselves. And some are very fond of everything shiny and it turns out that the text is no longer important.
We, librarians, very often forget that our "information" will be read by ordinary people(do not forget to separate stands for adults and children), who absolutely do not care how beautiful and long our library is called. They want to see what is happening in this library - what events, what services, when and in what department it can be done, and where to bring the child. Large-scale canvases filled with texts DO NOT WORK. Alas and ah.
Of course, we follow each other's successes, focus on foreign countries Let's come up with something of our own. The stands above are not bad or in need of improvement. Each of them is good, but the READER NEEDS ANOTHER.
BRIEF. CAPACITY. NOT STANDARD.
|
| good example of brevity |
Very good reflections on the topic of stands, I suggest reading from one of our fellow librarians. The answers to these questions may be different for each librarian. And this is good, because in this case we will be dealing with a "non-general expression" which readers pass without stopping.
1. How many stands do you need?There may be several of them: in the foyer, on the subscription, in the reading room, in other departments and functional rooms. Each of them has its own goals and objectives.
In the foyer - the most general information about the library: full name, postal and email address, founders, leaders, partners, mission, awards. Probably, information about regulatory documents is appropriate: Charter, Rules, Price lists for paid services ..., according to which the library operates. hardly worth putting full text these documents, it is enough to list them and tell where they are, who to contact for them. Here is the structure of the library: the name of the departments (branches), how they can help readers/users, how to find them, who to contact... Information about general library, district/city events and promotions.
Accordingly, in the departments - more detailed information about the departments: about employees, resources, services, events, achievements ...
2. Where and where are the stands located? Spatially: closer to the fund, to the exit, next to the catalog, with the pulpit? … It depends both on the size of the room and on concept idea. On special tablets, posters, exhibition stands, bookshelves, right on the wall, using improvised materials? ... I know that there are very original finds.
3. What stands are needed: permanent or variable? Ascertaining or navigational (explaining where, what and how to find)? There may be both. It is possible to make two parts on one stand. Then what is the ratio of the parts? Frequency of updating the variable component?
4. Sections and topics of the stand? They depend on what we want to tell readers/users, what to show, what to entice… They can also be permanent and changeable to more relevant ones.
6. How will texts, sections and topics be arranged on the stand? It is possible according to the principle book page:
left to right, top to bottom. It can be centrifugal. In the center is a non-stopper, some detail that sharply attracts attention: a question mark and the question itself, a photograph, a black spot ... In children's libraries, talismans, literary heroes are used for this purpose ..., and then, to the edges of the stand - texts , revealing the meaning of non-stopper. The text and pictures located in the upper right part are best perceived: there may be the most important or urgent information here. What other ideas will there be?
7. Will the color scheme be used and how? What colors will carry the main semantic load? Be sure to clarify and correctly use color combinations. Here you can also consider what fonts can be used. Of course, computer printing looks better, but depending on the idea, why not use the exclusive work of the artist.
8. What are style features, language? Much depends on the location of the stands and, accordingly, the intended purpose. Official text - business style and language. Event invitations are naturally more emotional language. There may be style options for children and teenagers, students and retirees. The main thing is that there should be no commanding tone, prohibitive and punitive promises.
9. Will there be an appeal to readers? What kind: a greeting, a question, a call for an assessment, a review? Generalized personalized: dear friend, dear reader ..., or generalized group: respected students, pensioners ...
10. Is it supposed to be interactive? If yes, how will it be done? Feedback: special pockets for notes, questions, color tokens for voting; a place for recordings online, (“fence” of reviews), contact channels of communication? What else? IN Lately libraries began to actively use electronic information tools: a running line, a computer monitor. Maybe the time will come, we will use holograms. And what do you think? And what haven't I said yet?
But most importantly, since we live in a century high technology, which means that the information that we want to convey to the masses should be located on high-tech, modern information stands.
An interactive information board that recognizes the reader by sight is no longer a fantasy! Instead of static stands in the "monologue" format, technological solutions have already been created that integrate with Digital Signage systems and allow not only to bring information to the consumer, but also to provide feedback: analyze how many people actually read the information posted on the board, how much time they spend near it, evaluate the reaction of the consumer of information, determine age, gender, social status"readers".
P.S. How to present websites to readers (on the example of a library in Arzamas)
