am a literature teacher at Shaanxi University of Science and Technology. Sometimes I wonder: In addition to teaching, can I go out of the campus and do something for the society? Once, I had the opportunity to work as a deputy director of the Culture, Tourism and Sports Bureau of Beilin District, Xi'an. Beilin District is the central urban area of Xi'an, but there is no library, which surprised me. What surprised me even more was that the "Xi'an Beilin District Library Construction Project" that I was about to take over was to be built underground! The wall was damaged, the wires were exposed, and it didn't look good. There were only two people on staff, me and the director Xiaoning. Xiaoning said that everything about buying books should be done by me. Booksellers sent book lists one after another, but I found that I had to compile a book list that was more suitable for readers in this district. Our library is small and there are few books, which is precisely the difficulty - if we buy a little bit off, a lot of them will be idle.

我是陕西科技大学的一名文学老师,有时会想:除了教书,我能不能走出校园,为社会做点什么?一次机会,我到西安市碑林区文化和旅游体育局挂职,任副局长。碑林区是西安市的中心城区,却没有一家图书馆,让我错愕。更让我错愕的是,我即将接手的这个“西安市碑林区图书馆建设项目”要建在地下!墙皮破损,电线裸露,没个好模样,人手就我和馆长小宁两个人。小宁说买书的事情全听我的。书商纷纷发来书目,但我发现我得自己动手编一个更适合本区读者的书目出来。我们的馆小,书少,这恰恰困难——稍微买偏了,就会大量被闲置。
