公共圖書館生涯資訊服務之調查研究-以申請失業給付之台北市民衆為例

The Demand for Career Information Service in Public Libraries: A Study of the People Applying for Unemployment Benefits in Taipei City

摘要


近年來,金融風暴造成全球經濟衰退,許多民眾無法充分就業,臺灣亦面臨失業率高漲之危機。而公共圖書館為社會服務機構之一,其如何運用豐富的館藏資源協助民眾提升就業知能,並增進個人就業機會,實是值得吾人思考的議題。爰此,本研究採取問卷調查法,並輔以電話訪談,針對342位台北市申請失業給付的民眾,探討其對公共圖書館生涯資訊服務之需求。調查結果顯示,就業機會、生涯規劃、評估個人興趣與技能為填答者最重視的三項生涯資訊。至於填答者希望公共圖書館典藏之生涯資訊,則包括就業機會、評估個人興趣與技能、公職或證照考試、生涯規劃相關的館藏資源等。此外,提供轉介服務、成立生涯資訊服務中心、舉辦生涯資訊相關活動、辦理生涯諮詢服務等,亦為填答者期望公共圖書館施行之生涯資訊服務。爰此,研究者建議公共圖書館,在館藏方面,宜積極更新生涯相關館藏並編制相關書目清單,同時亦提供失業民眾可緩解失業壓力與負面情緒的館藏資源;另外,公共圖書館尚可建置單一窗口之生涯資訊網路平台、辦理生涯資訊相關活動,或是設立生涯資訊服務中心,並可嘗試提供生涯諮詢及轉介服務。
