Public libraries increasingly provide programs focused around moving the body and being physically active: everything from bike rodeos to chair-based yoga to music-and-movement programs. Although common, these programs have received little assessment in the scholarly literature. This article reports on an exploratory qualitative study of the experiences of staff in public libraries in the state of North Carolina that have developed and implemented these types of programs. Across the state, staff report developing a variety of programs that include physical activities for multiple audiences. The diversity associated with this programming area testifies to the creativity of library staff working in and with their communities. This study adds to the limited understanding of programs involving physical activity in libraries by identifying and articulating several key aspects that need attention, including how this programming relates to the overall mission of the library.

公共图书馆工作人员开展体育活动的经验:北卡罗莱纳州的一项探索性研究

公共图书馆越来越多地提供围绕身体运动和身体活动的计划:从自行车牛仔竞技表演到基于椅子的瑜伽,再到音乐和运动计划,应有尽有。尽管很常见,但这些程序在学术文献中几乎没有得到评估。本文对北卡罗来纳州公共图书馆工作人员的经验进行了探索性的定性研究,这些工作人员已经制定并实施了此类计划。在全州范围内,员工报告制定了各种计划,其中包括针对多个受众的体育活动。与该计划编制领域相关的多样性证明了图书馆工作人员在其社区内和与社区一起工作的创造力。
