AB - In order for school library to fully serve as a key educational element of a school, teachers’ positive perception on the library’s role is essential. Due to the lack of the perception, however, school libraries are not closely related to class activities in practice. Since teachers’ perception on school library has been regarded as an given environmental factor in the field of school libraries, alternatives for revitalizing school libraries proposed in previous studies were not effective in practice. We developed a hypothesis that activities in school libraries have a certain impact on the teachers’ perception, and tested the hypothesis and identified library factors to the perception in this study. Through a series of statistical analyses with the data from a questionnaire survey with teachers in elementary schools, we identified that the teachers perceived the library as non-curricular element, their perceptions were affected by the library. Consequently, the school library can influence the teachers’ perveption. This study has implications to explore practical alternatives to improve the teachers’ perception on school libraries by activities in school libraries.
