Features: Combining learning and practice is an effective way for lifelong learning. Integrating systematic theoretical study and knowledge updates with the job responsibilities one is engaged in is an effective learning approach. The Culture Ministry's Social and Cultural Library Department will organize on-the-job training and continuing education programs across national libraries. This is a work of significant and long-term impact. The "Library On-the-Job Training Textbooks," written by a group of librarians and scholars with rich theoretical and practical experience, provide the necessary conditions for this initiative. It is hoped that local cultural authorities will organize this work carefully. In the future, on-the-job training and continuing education for library professionals will be gradually improved and institutionalized. I believe that with the implementation of this program, librarians will actively engage in learning and practice, continuously improving their own qualities, and making greater contributions to advancing the development of library services in the new century, as well as building a prosperous and thriving modern China. This book comprehensively summarizes the main contents and methods of children's library (room) work in China over the past 20 years of reform and opening-up, and offers an outlook on the future of children's library services in the 21st century.
