The purpose is to summarize the experience to be drawn upon.

The grass-roots level is the focus and weakness of the public cultural service. Promoting the construction of grassroots comprehensive culture service center can help improve the network of public cultural facilities, and complete the “last one kilometer” of public cultural service. The central urban district
is usually small and densely populated. If we build cultural center there in strict accordance with rules for administrative district, the service radius is bound to be too small, costs too high, and facilities and resources wasted. An effective method to solve such a problem is to, taking into account the service radius
and accessibility of facilities, build a proper number of “cultural communities” with reasonable layouts and in moderate size, which will thus achieve the utmost effect with the available recourses.

The rural library project is the basis of public library service system. The rural library is an important place in every village that not only provides reading service for farmers but also open a window for spiritual civilization in rural areas. According to the integration of the rural library project and
public library service system, we can notice the inadequacies of rural libraries. Innovating farmers’ reading activities, improving utilization and solving the difficulty of borrowing books and reading on the part of farmers are efforts to be made. It hopes to help us form deep thinking of rural library development and break the deadlock of build-abandon-rebuild cycle.

This paper attempts to examine factors affecting user behavioral intention to us mobile library through empirically comparing and assessing four models of IT/IS acceptance. Using 197 questionnaire data collected in southern China, this paper conducts data analysis by SEM. The results suggest that,
“Technology Acceptance Model” appears to be the best model. The results also show that perceived usefulness positively affects perceived ease of use, and both, in turn, have positive effects on attitude,which further affects user intention to use mobile library. However, perceived usefulness does not have an
impact on user intention.

In this paper, the concept of “Book Footprint” is introduced, so is its three-dimensional model of function dimension, user dimension and time dimension, in the hope of constructing the university library precise service model, and applying the model to carry out resource development and service, as well as improving the library utilization rate and the value.

This paper aims to study terminology semantic correlation using Chinese chemical names as objects in structuralism linguistics. This paper proposes a terminology semantic correlation discovering method based on the Chinese chemical morpheme theory. Firstly, several Chinese chemical names are
destructed according to their morphological structure to obtain mutual similarity. Secondly, the hierarchical agglomerative cluster algorithm is used to layer the terms whereas the common structure of term nodes are extracted as the cluster labels. As a result, a hierarchical tree forms. Lastly, such hierarchical trees are put to test to verify the methods and theory proposed in this paper as logical and practical.

The research selects the most representative national open government data network platforms of U.S.A., U.K., Australia, Singapore and China as samples, and analyzes their features, management and utilization.

the weakness of domestic network platforms in terms of applications and open API, and propounds some suggestions for reference.

Print books have no doubt retained their monopoly overtime in the dissemination of information across the globe. However, the introduction of eBooks propelled by technological advancements has created controversies regarding the life span of print books. This paper provides an overview of the emergence
of eBooks into the African book industry and ascertains the leverage on the survival of the print books.Although the use of eBooks has spread widely, they have not gained grounds in Africa because of limitations in finances, technical know-how and infrastructure. The need for government to tackle infrastructural
issues and establish policies and regulations on information service provision were emphasized. The paper concludes that the ushering in of eBooks will not result in the extinction of the print book; rather both will thrive side-by-side to complement one another. The eBook is not a replacement of the print book but just an addition!
