Las bibliotecas escolares en la Comunidad Autónoma de Galicia: análisis de los recursos documentales, personales y tecnológicos

Abstract

The present work aims to know the perception of the teaching staff of the support team at the school library about the documentary, personal and technological resources of the libraries and the existence of differences according to the type of center. For this, a total of 654 teachers from the school library support team were selected through a multi-stage random sampling, to which the Evaluation Questionnaire of the Functioning of School Libraries has been applied. The results obtained reveal the existence of deficits in the three types of resources and differences by type of center. The results obtained reveal the existence of differences in the school libraries of the CEIP and IES in the adaptation of the documentary resources to the interests and needs of the users and to the development of the curriculum; in the number of hours of dedication, functions and training needs of the library support team and in relation to the existence of an internet connection and the availability of electronic readers and tablets. From these results derives the need to carry out actions in Galicia school libraries aimed at improving documentary, personal and technological resources.
