11/14/2018 Considerations- Why “Small Projects” are Important to EEF 考虑因素－为什么小型项目对青树很重要？ A Review of Literature and Research on Museums and Libraries: September, 2011 博物馆和图书馆文献和研究纵览：2011年９月 http://www.artscouncil.org.uk/media/uploads/pdf/a_review_of_research.pdf opportunity for the public to help shape the service; and services that reach out to local people – All our projects were initiated locally 公众参与设计服务的机会，以及能触及当地民众的服务－所有小型项目都是当地发起 • connecting a community of readers though reading groups, activities and recommendations –Many projects deal with Reading, writing and speech making and some with information literacy 通过阅读小组、阅读活动和阅读推荐来联结广泛的读者社区－很多项目是关于阅读、写作和演讲的，一些是有关信息素养的

11/14/2018 Considerations- Why “Small Projects” are Important to EEF 考虑因素－为什么小型项目对青树很重要？ • free internet access for all and help to get online –All our libraries have free Internet access – some projects help local farmers get online and assist the elderly in using Skype to communicate with their children who have migrated to urban locations 为所有人提供的免费互联网使用，以及帮助他们学习互联网应用－所有青树项目图书馆都提供免费上网，有的项目帮助当地农民上网获取信息，有的项目帮助县城老年人用Skype和他们在城里打工的子女通话。 • commitment to customer service and expert, helpful staff –Made improvements but have a long way to go. 致力于用户服务，以及专家型的有帮助的工作人员 – 有进步，但是有很长的路要走 • links to other public services and opportunities – made some inroads such as developing information booklets with information on government sponsorships – a long way to go. 与其他公众服务和机会的联结－有一些尝试，如和当地政府合作资助资讯小册子的制作，有很长的路要走

NEXT?下一步？ Assessments needed to evaluate需要评估体系来评估： Projects over time　项目随时间推移的效果 Participating Libraries 参与图书馆 Participating Personnel　参与人员 Effects of conducting the assessment itself – whether this activity is useful in the development of the participants　评估本身的效果，对于人员培养是否有用 Developing a feedback mechanism to use results of assessment to improve our programs. 需要开发一个反馈系统来利用评估的结果改进项目。
