Although libraries were originally established for a very different purpose, it is noteworthy that they are among the few institutions that enjoy a high level of trust from the public. As such, they can contribute to building local social networks and social capital. In order for these processes to take place, it is necessary to have both the premises and equipment available in the local centres, as well as appropriate personnel with specific attitudes, knowledge, experience, and preparation for these types of activities. To illustrate conditions in library institutions, this paper presents the results of a survey of library staff attitudes, conducted among library staff from twenty countries around the world. The research confirmed the presence of pro-social attitudes in this group.</p>}, journal={AUPC Studia ad Bibliothecarum Scientiam Pertinentia}, author={Wojciechowska, Maja}, year={2021}, month={grudz.}, pages={728–750} }
