Abstract

On April 5th, 2021, American Library Association (ALA) had issued 2021 State of American's Libraries Special Report: COVID-19. This report reflects the adaptability, determination and innovation of American's libraries during the era of ever-confronted environment. This essay mainly analyses the core contents of Report 2021 Version about the overview of library opening, book lending, distance learning, library activities, legislation and fundraising, and combating false information. Then, based on the practice in Chinese libraries (mainland), some suggestions are put forward, such as perfecting the emergency service system of the library, strengthening the construction of special medical resources, improving the level of "embedded" decision consultation service of librarians, and preventing the hazards of "information pandemic" through multi-pronged measures.

Key words： American Library Association; 2021 State of American's Libraries Special Report; COVID-19; emergency service system; "embedded" decision consulting services; fighting against information pandemic
