文章以顾颉刚35岁前的书信和日记为中心,追溯其图书馆学思想的根源与演变,在此基础上考察其与图书馆的互动。顾颉刚的图书馆学思想植根于古籍积淀和历史研究的土壤,也受到当时图书馆改革的影响。在不同的人生阶段,顾颉刚分别作为一位学生、图书馆员和学者,在使用图书馆、认识图书馆和改造图书馆的过程中,不断塑造自己对图书馆的理解,并为图书馆事业做出贡献,实现与图书馆的互动和“相互成就”。这种认识和实践与他的其他学术事业交融在一起,如同一片盘根错节的密林,共同成为他改造社会的方式。作为学者与图书馆互动的一个个案,文章展现出民国学者与图书馆事业在互动和相互影响中不断发展的过程。

Focusing on GU Jiegang’s letters and diaries before the age of 35,this paper attempts to trace the roots and development of his thoughts on library science and,on this basis,to examine his interactions with libraries. GU’s thoughts on library science were rooted in the accumulation of ancient books and historical research,and were influenced by the reformation at that time. At different stages of his life,GU continuously shaped his understanding of libraries and contributed to the cause of librarianship through the process of using libraries,getting to know libraries,and transforming libraries as a student,a librarian and a scholar,so that he and libraries achieved good interactions and mutual success. This understanding and practice intermingled with the rest of his academic career,which together became his way of transforming the turbulent society. As a specific case of the interaction between scholars and libraries in the Republic of China （ROC） period,this study demonstrates the ongoing process of interaction and mutual influence between scholars and libraries under the ROC.
