每周广播一则（八）：图书使用率下降 图书馆裁撤图书空间

The Yale Undergraduate Library has recently announced that it will reduce three-quarters of its bookshelves as a self-study space for students. The reason is that the book usage on the bookshelf has dropped by 64% in the past 10 years, and few people in the university have gone to the bookshelf to find books.

$ d- S1 G/ c8 J) @- M! c2 kThe decline in the use of paper books has become a global trend. According to the university's social survey, the University of Virginia library borrowed 238,000 books a year ago, and last year only borrowed 60,000 copies. Moreover, not only undergraduates, but also the library usage rate of graduate students and teachers has fallen sharply.

据称，耶鲁大学本科生图书馆最近宣布，将减少四分之三的书架，用作学生的自习空间。原因是过去10年来，书架上的图书使用率下降了64%，大学已经很少人去书架找书了。

纸质图书的使用率下降，已成了全球普遍趋势。据另一项大学调查研究，弗吉尼亚大学图书馆十年前每年借出23.8万本书，去年只借出6万本。而且，不仅本科生如此，研究生和教师的图书馆使用率都在大幅下降。
