Abstract

Multilingual access in public libraries is vital in serving diverse populations and has been discussed along with the rise of online websites or digital libraries. There are a variety of support-levels in providing multilingual access in practices of public libraries but only few researches have been conducted to identify components of multilingual access, especially for public libraries websites which can be the first gate to users. Our study aims at examining a current status of multilingual access in public library websites by reviewing literatures on the multilingual issues and case studies selected by demographic data. The conclusion of this study suggests a general frame-work which leads guidelines to evaluations of multilingual access in public library websites.
