Abstract:

Disinformation—deliberately spreading false information to mislead the public—is presents a significant challenge today, impacting public sentiment and national information security. Libraries face particular challenges in addressing the issue. The paper defines disinformation from the perspective of library and information science, clarifies its fundamental concepts, and explores library practices in disinformation governance through literature review and website survey. It proposes a practicing framework for library involvement in disinformation governance, focusing on four dimensions: resources, users, technology, and management. The framework includes strategies for developing specialized resource navigation, establishing targeted training courses, improving feasible operation methods, and creating standardized action guidelines. In order to improve disinformation governance, libraries should adopt a holistic approach that considers five areas: structure deployment, professional authority reconstruction, cognitive and perceptual shifts, advancements in information technology, and collaborative governance.
