Résumé
Le rôle social des bibliothèques est de plus en plus mis de l’avant. En effet, la bibliothèque peut être comprise comme un troisième lieu, dans le sens où elle remplit des fonctions sociales, culturelles et éducatives qui sont difficilement reproductibles dans d’autres espaces publics en raison de son ouverture et de son accessibilité. Cependant, nous en savons peu sur le potentiel de ce lieu pour agir sur certaines réalités sociales (santé mentale, pauvreté, itinérance, intégration des personnes immigrantes, etc.). Cet article vise à faire état d’une collaboration entre la Bibliothèque publique de Moncton et une équipe de recherche de l’Université de Moncton qui a eu pour but d’accompagner la Bibliothèque dans ses réflexions sur son rôle auprès de la communauté. Ainsi, nous présenterons l’origine et l’évolution de notre collaboration, qui se décline en deux projets de recherche distincts. Nous montrerons en quoi les connaissances issues de cette collaboration ont un impact direct auprès de la communauté de Moncton en amenant une institution phare de la ville à affirmer son rôle dans la communauté en entamant des démarches afin de répondre aux besoins de la population.
Abstract
The social role of libraries is increasingly being emphasized. The library can be seen as a third place, in the sense that it fulfils social, cultural, and educational functions that are difficult to reproduce in other public spaces because of its openness and accessibility. However, we know little about the potential of this place to act on certain social realities (mental health, poverty, homelessness, integration of immigrants, etc.). The purpose of this article is to report on a collaboration between the Moncton Public Library and a research team from the Université de Moncton, the aim of which was to help the library reflect on its role in the community. We will present the origins and development of our collaboration, which is divided into two separate research projects. We will show how the knowledge gained from this collaboration has a direct impact on the Moncton community, by encouraging a flagship institution in the city to affirm its role in the community by taking steps to meet the needs of the population.
