Questions concerning some of the values we hold as librarians and the goals, standards, and other evaluation tools we derive from them are discussed in the context of the history of our profession and the present period of rapid change. The concepts of stable and changing paradigms and of "scientific communities" provide the foundation for consideration of how a changing conceptual framework can affect values and their application in the evaluation process. One of many possible scenarios for the future is briefly outlined to demonstrate how some traditional values may fare.
在我们职业的历史背景以及当前快速变化的时期中,讨论了一些与我们作为图书馆员所秉持的价值观以及我们从中衍生出的目标、标准和其他评估工具相关的问题。稳定与变化的范式概念以及“科学共同体”概念为思考不断变化的概念框架如何影响价值观及其在评估过程中的应用提供了基础。简要概述了众多未来可能情景中的一种,以说明一些传统价值观可能的发展情况。
