3．YOUR OPINION COUNTS: KING COUNTY
LIBRARY SURVEY
KCLS (KING COUNTY
LIBRARY SYSTEM，金县公共图书馆) 的分支机构遍布大西雅图地区的各个卫星城市，是我校广大家长、教师、学生课后阅读、浏览、查资料难得的好去处。KCLS因其优质的服务，2013年度获得全美图书馆博物馆一等奖。多年来对我校一直是厚爱有加，无论是我们举行大型的会议，还是进行大规模的教师培训活动，KCLS总是向我们伸出援助之手，我们感激于心。为了更好地服务社区、服务读者，KCLS特别设计了一项民意调查，望大家在百忙之中抽出一点时间参与（请点击上面的链接进入）。KCLS常年设有各类免费的读书活动，希望我校广大师生家长善加利用。或许，有人会说现在网上什么都有，谁还去图书馆呀？去了您就知道了：不一样的读书环境，不一样的学术氛围，必定给您一种不一样的感觉，带来不一样的读书效果。图书馆对培养少年儿童好的读书习惯具有不可替代的作用和潜移默化的功能。KCLS的家政、电影、艺术、各类讲座、名著经典阅读活动深受大家的喜爱：（值得一提的是：KCLS的藏书量已颇具规模，中文版的书籍收藏大幅增加，超出我们的想象）。http://www.kcls.org/cooks/ http://www.kcls.org/events/index.cfm#master
其名著经典读书活动令人印象深刻。所谓经典，就是指那些经过历史选择出来的“最有价值的书”，具有典范性、权威性的特征。经典通过个人独特的世界观和不可重复的创造，凸显出丰厚的文化积淀和人性内涵，提出一些人类精神生活的根本性问题。它们与特定历史时期鲜活的时代感以及当下意识交融在一起，富有原创性和持久的震撼力，从而形成重要的思想文化传统。人类最美好的思想往往包蕴在经典名著中。知名学者钱理群教授说过，人类精神文明的成果就是通过各类学科（不只是文学，还有其它人文科学、自然科学）的经典的阅读而代代相传的，在这个意义上，受教育的基本途径就是读名著（经典）。阅读经典名著，学生可以不断提升对作品的审美鉴赏能力，从中汲取人文精神，树立正确的价值观念。同时，经典是阐释者与被阐释者文本之间互动的结果。从价值定位看，经典必须成为民族语言和思想的象征符号。如马克·吐温之于美国和美国文学，莎士比亚之于英国和英国文学，托尔斯泰之于俄罗斯与俄罗斯文学，鲁迅之于中国和中国文学，他们的经典都远远超越了个人意义，上升成为一个民族的、甚至是全人类共同的精神财富。
