- W2145391130 abstract "EASTASIANSCHOLAR John King Fairbank has written that “at any given time the ‘truth’ about China is in our heads, anotoriously unsafe repository for so valuable a commodity.”1 The same observation could easily apply to instruction in library use. Professor Fairbank’s approach, with its appropriate respect for the subject and a corresponding willingness to revise our own opinions, could enhance the value of our review of the topic. As today’s truth about library instruction is evident in the assumptions current practitioners use and the views they espouse, so the truth of yesterday may be seen in the ideas, concerns andactivities of our predecessors. Historians and their readers may find yesterday’s truth to be of interest for its own sake, but librarians, traditionally oriented to practical matters, tend to regard history largely for its utilitarian value. This rationale for historical study is frequently and aptly set forth. Pierce Butler applied it to librarianship. “The librarian’s practice,” he observed, “will be determined in part by his historical understanding .... Unless the librarian has a clear historical consciousness ...he is quite certain at times to serve his community badly.”2 The purpose of this essay is to help establish a historical consciousness, a more detailed retrospective on the task of user education in academic libraries. Some of the ideas, the persisting issues, and the nature and extent of instructional activity should become apparent in the course of these comments." @default.
