[目的/意义] 针对目前学界更为重视社会文化背景对图书馆生存和发展的前提性的认识现状,重点分析图书馆参与社会文化建构的反向能动作用。[方法/过程] 指出图书馆的文献收集、整理、保存和利用过程看似客观,实无不涉及对文献背后所记录的知识性质的裁定,且主动地彰显着关于知识是什么的本体论、关于知识如何存在的存在论、关于知识如何被认识的认识论、关于知识为什么的目的论,从而也改变着文献背后的知识面貌,直接影响到读者的理解和接受。在从作者到读者的文献知识传递过程中,存在着一个并不中立的中介性机构——图书馆,它始终以其自身独特的方式建构着社会文化。[结果/结论] 追问图书馆的社会文化建构功能,有助于正确认识和定位图书馆,并为图书馆学研究重新界定范围和层次。

[Purpose/significance] People pay more attention to the survival and development of the library under the social and cultural background. According to the premise recognize situation, this paper focuses on analyzing the reverse dynamic function of library participating in social cultural construction. [Method/process] It seems that the library objectively collects, sorts, preserves and uses the literatures. However, these processes all involve in ruling on the recorded knowledge of literature behind nature, and extremely actively express the ontology about what is knowledge, the ontology about how does the knowledge exist, the epistemology about how knowledge can be known, and the teleology about why the knowledge exist. Such cognition changes the knowledge outlook behind the literature, which directly affects readers' understanding and acceptance. In the process of that literature knowledge transfers from the author to the reader's, the library as a non-neutrality intermediary organization constructs its social culture in its unique way from beginning to end. [Result/conclusion] Reviewing the social culture construction function of library contributes to recognize and set the position of library, and reassigns the scope and level for library science research.
