As we think About the Library and as we Interpret it
Abstract
We shall chart how we think about the library by defining its concept. In our questionnaire survey we research the symbolic reading of the library, 508 Hungarian librarian majors (first-years and seniors) were interviewed. The typical components of the library concept were inquired by random choice oral interviews (300 students). We got the result that the students ’samples are taken from culturally limited ideals, transmitted concepts. According to our conclusion, the effect of the social, cultural transmission is definitely powerful, but it is also worth pointing out that in the librarian training more attention should be paid to the development of the image of the library, the librarian, the founding of librarianship as an identity. Students, besides similar elements rooted in the past, can also find a firm grip in the image of a library changed by digital culture.
