Abstract

The traditional in-service training approach, with the effect of the change created by information and communication technologies in working life, now replaced by “continuing professional education and, development” which is a bottom-up oriented approach based on increasing individuals' physical, social, intellectual/mental efficiency. Based on this new approach, the purpose of the study is; to present the conceptual framework of "continuing professional education and development", identify Turkey's public library employees' activities they perform in line with this approach, their requirements, tendencies and expectations. In line with this purpose, a compilation study on the relevant literature has been made and examples of good practices in the context of "continuing professional education and development" have been mentioned. In addition, with the survey method, the opinions of 325 public library employees, who were graduated from librarianship, archival, information and records management departments, have been assessed and evaluated. Accordingly, it was determined that the majority of the participants considered the activities of "continuing professional education and development" as a necessity and supported the creation of a central unit in order to maintain "continuing professional education and development" activities. As a result of the findings and evaluations, an integrated “continuing professional education and development model” has been designed for public library staff.

Bu yaklaşımtemelinde çalışmanın amacı; SMEG’in kavramsal çerçevesini ortaya koymak veTürkiye’de halk kütüphanesi çalışanlarının SMEG’le uyumlu olarakgerçekleştirdikleri faaliyetleri, gereksinimlerini, eğilimlerini ve beklentilerinibelirlemektir. Bu doğrultuda konuyla ilgili literatür çalışması yapılmış ve SMEGbağlamında iyi uygulama örneklerine değinilmiştir. Ayrıca anket yöntemiylekütüphanecilik, arşivcilik, bilgi ve belge yönetimi lisans mezunu 325 halkkütüphanesi çalışanının bu konudaki görüşleri alınarak değerlendirmeleryapılmıştır. Buna göre katılımcıların büyük bir çoğunluğunun SMEGfaaliyetlerini bir gereklilik olarak gördükleri ve SMEG faaliyetlerininsürdürülebilmesi için merkezi bir birimin oluşturulmasını destekledikleri tespitedilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular ve değerlendirmeler sonucunda halkkütüphaneleri personeli için mevcut kütüphane otomasyon sistemine entegre bir“SMEG modeli” tasarlanmıştır.
