As a hotly debated topic in contemporary public library communities at home and abroad,transformation and development is a major theoretical and practical issue concerning whether public libraries can successfully meet the challenges of information technology and achieve sustainable development,as well as a call of our times that Chinese-style public library modernization should answer. This paper aims to explore the feasible pattern of the transformation and development at public libraries based on a case study of Guangzhou Library. It reviews the practice over the past ten years since the opening of the new Guangzhou Library,focusing on the library’s systematic cultural services,expanded public communication functions,intensive reading promotion programs,promotion of functional platform and knowledge services,enhanced management support and reform. The paper also analyzes the theoretical basis of “the third space”,social communication and information communication,and conducts performance evaluation of the transformation and development from five aspects,namely creating communication value,improving comprehensive service efficiency,enhancing traditional services,promoting publicity and reading,and demonstrating the value of the platform. Guangzhou Library’s experience in transformation and development has formed a feasible pattern：the direction is to offer cultural services and communication services in a broader sense;the main theoretical basis is “the third space” or the public space theory;the path is to implement a free,equal,open and inclusive service policy,and strengthen the communication function through service expansion on the basis of making full use of the new library’s architectural design;the service mode is to enrich service contents,enhance the public's library awareness,promote traditional library services and improve the comprehensive service efficiency through introducing cultural exchange and public communication activities,so as to make the library a public cultural center and a window of the city. Finally,the paper presents further thoughts on future transformation and development of public libraries and the Chinese path to public library modernization in terms of building a people-centered library,strengthening the functions of science and culture,continuously seeking the guidance of scientific theory,and sticking to the defining value of humanism.

As the next generation of integrated library system（ILS）enters a critical period,it is necessary to review the historical experience of ILS construction in universities from the perspective of technology history. This paper examines the development process of China's university integrated library management systems over the past forty years,and summarizes the background,selection process,and the effects and limitations of developing and implementing four sets of domestic and foreign integrated library systems in Jinan University Library from 1985 to 2022. The study shows that the starting point of Jinan University's ILS exploration is the same as the official development of the integrated library system in China;and like most university libraries,Jinan University Library has undergone several system changes. The paper suggests that system selection should be in line with the university's development orientation and user-centered,and proposes some strategies such as optimizing platform functions,emphasizing open design,focusing on quality control and pooling professional librarians' wisdom.

Digital living of vulnerable groups,such as the elderly,has been an important issue in building an inclusive digital society,although there are few empirical research on the subject. Using the data from a survey comprising 593 elderly participants,this paper examines the effects that digital literacy,digital social participation and digital support have on older people’s sense of digital fulfillment. The study indicates that the general digital literacy of the elderly is relatively low,with physical access skill,information search skills,communication and cooperation skills,data security awareness,and digital content creativity ranked from highest to lowest;the elderly’s sense of gain at the macro-level (government empowerment,fairness and justice） is higher than that on a personal level (personal emotion,resource access） in the digital era;digital literacy has a positive impact on the elderly's sense of digital fulfillment;digital social participation plays an intermediary role between digital literacy and the sense of digital fulfillment;digital literacy can positively regulate the sense of digital fulfillment in the seniors with low digital literacy,and the participation of those with higher digital literacy. To avoid the dulled sense of gain and the erosion of relative deprivation,we should produce a digital development strategy with respect for the principal position of the elderly,and develop a trinity development plan involving individual,family and society.

What are people talking about when it comes to metaverse? Are the topics relating to metaverse well defined? What are the connections and differences between the topics on the dimension of institutional attributes? Further analysis of the hot topics about metaverse is conducive to the thoughts on such issues. Based on the theory of informetrics,this paper uses LDA topic model to explore the similarities and differences of the connotation of metaverse topics between academia and industry in China. From a perspective of social subject analysis,it presents a focus map in the field of metaverse from the standpoint of "academia- industry-government",focusing on "research,application and governance",to illustrate the social hotspots in the metaverse. It highlights the three important challenges facing future metaverse,i.e. the impact of AIGC on the supply and demand sides of content production,the problems existing in the development of artificial intelligence ethics,and the possible ideas for China’s governance of metaverse ecology,trying to explore the potentials of the metaverse.

Research highlights,special texts with a promotional function that outline the research methods and conclusions of an academic paper,can facilitate the advancement of knowledge exchange and scientific innovation. Based on 564 paper highlights from the ScienceDirect database,this paper explores the internal and external characteristics of research highlights,analyzes its linguistic features by means of multidimensional analysis （MDA） method,elaborates on the differences between the linguistic features of highlights and abstracts,examines the relationship between the citations of papers and the linguistic features of highlights,and proposes some suggestions for highlight-writing. With the help of manual annotations,the paper identifies the topics of the highlights from an integrated and a categorized point of view respectively,using the LDA model and the VOSviewer tool. The results show that：highlights are generally more informative and non-narrative,with clearer expressions,less interactive and explicit persuasiveness,and a relatively high degree of objectivity and precision;highlights of highly cited papers tend to use more cardinal numbers,quantifiers,emphases and independent or coordinate clauses,demonstrating specific data and their correlation;highlights can be divided into method-based highlights,conclusion-based highlights and （to a lesser extent） other highlights,which indicate the key information of a scientific field,unfolding the innovative methods and focuses in the field.

In the digital transformation society,library is a transformative force for advancing cultural self-confidence and self-improvement,and the overall layout of digital China and the national cultural digitization strategy provide policy guidance for the library to open up a new prospect of high-quality development. Using the methods of literature review,practice survey,and content analysis,this article attempts to sort out the current situation and requirements for the high-quality development of library in the era of digital transformation,analyze the international policy orientation of library digital strategy,and propose a development path for China. The study indicates that the high-quality development of library in the era of digital transformation needs to meet the requirements of “people-centered” transformation and form an ecosystem that is open,intelligent,inclusive,and sharing;data empowerment,demand-driven,digital intelligence integration,value-led and innovation-driven are the important strategic directions of foreign libraries' digital strategies,which play a normative and guiding role in reshaping and integrating the core elements of high-quality development of library. To serve the vision of building a strong cultural nation,and to meet the requirements and expectations of the country,the people,the society,and the era,library should transform and renew itself in terms of system,concept,business format,and capacity under the overall layout of digital China.

Based on the theory of public policy change,this paper takes China's digital literacy education policies as the research object. With the help of Nvivo12 qualitative analysis and SPSS statistical analysis software,it conducts quantitative statistics and interactive analysis on the enactment time and policy subjects of 87 Chinese digital literacy education policies from 2002 to 2022 . The study finds that the evolution of China's digital literacy education policy is based on promoting the all-round development of all people,taking the practical needs of economic and social development as the entry point,building a lifelong digital learning system as the breakthrough point,and focusing on the coordinated integration of urban and rural areas for shared benefits. At the policy gap stage,the main focus was on infrastructure development and the application of information technology in education,and digital literacy education did not receive much attention;at the early exploration stage,the focus was on building digital resource platforms,and attention was paid to the development of digital citizens;at the initial policy-making stage,the concept of "digital literacy" was formally introduced,and the exploration of digital literacy education began,focusing on the construction of digital government and digital literacy education for the elderly and a supervisory mechanism was gradually established. At the stage of comprehensive policy development,specific policies on digital literacy education were issued to formally define the connotation of digital literacy education,and digital literacy education for citizens was fully rolled out,initially integrated into education,rural revitalisation,community governance and other fields,and emphased the construction of a lifelong digital learning system. Promoting the deep integration of all-field digital literacy education will be an important issue in the future. Therefore,it should further strengthen the integration of digital literacy education policies into the economy,society and life,accelerate the transformation of an elderly friendly digital society and the digital transformation of enterprises by seizing the opportunity of digital literacy education,and enhance the ability to work efficiently and digitally,so as to better achieve the goal of improving digital literacy for all.

The projects highlight multi-agent participation,multi-dimensional support,multi-form development,and mutual teaching. Thus,a framework of social support system for ICT intergenerational learning is established,and the joint development strategies related to stakeholders are put forward,including：strengthening the role cognition and service consciousness of stakeholders,enhancing the cooperation between social supporting subjects,developing online and offline integrated services,optimizing spaces and infrastructure,and building up a professional guidance team.

The Library of Congress is the main repository of Chinese books in the United States. The history of collecting Chinese books in the United States from 1912 to 1949 had its own unique driving factors,which were not completely synchronized with the history of Sinology. From the perspective of philology,the history of the collection of Chinese books in the Library of Congress from 1912 to 1949 can be divided into three phases. The first phase,1912-1949,was the period of collecting the basic classics,during which a large number of documentary resources and philological experiences were accumulated;the second phase,1926-1941,saw the acquisition of an enormous amount of private collections,which increased the Library’s rare book holdings;the third phase was from 1942 to 1949,after the outbreak of the Pacific War,when the new accessions were mainly contemporary materials and traditional Chinese books as cultural heritage were no longer acquired after 1949. In parallel with the accumulation of Chinese books in the collections,the level of bibliography and bibliology of Chinese books in the Library of Congress was greatly developed,serving as an important basis for the development of sinology in the United States.
