研究发现 更多的英国年轻人喜欢去图书馆
The number of young people in the UK using libraries has increased over the last five years, according to new research.
一项最新研究发现,在过去5年内,英国使用图书馆的年轻人的数量有所上升。
A comprehensive study by the Carnegie UK Trust looked at the habits of 10,000 people across the country. People aged 15-24 in England were the most likely age group to use libraries.
卡内基英国信托对全国范围内10000名受访者的习惯进行了一项综合性研究。结果发现,年龄在15到24岁的人群使用图书馆最多。
But the data didn't show what they were using them for - so it could be for the computers and free internet.
不过,数据并未显示他们在图书馆做什么--所以有可能是使用电脑或者自由上网。
Nearly half (46%) of people aged 25 to 34 still visit them according to the study - a rise of 2%.
从研究结果可以看出,在25岁到34岁的人群中,有近半数(46%)的人仍去图书馆--这一数字相比之前上升了2%。
However, overall library use in England declined by 4% over five years with the public using libraries less frequently. There was also a drop in the number of older people using libraries.
然而,过去5年内,由于公众使用图书馆的频率降低,英国人总体使用图书馆的比例下降了4%。而老年人使用图书馆的数量也有所减少。
The study involved 5,000 interviews which took place in 2011, and a further 5,000 interviews last year. Researchers then compared the two sets of data, which was broken down by region.
这项研究在2011年调查了5000人,去年再次调查了5000人。研究人员将这两套数据分区域进行了比对。
The highest levels of library use were in Scotland and Ireland, with the lowest in Northern Ireland.
图书馆使用频率最高的是苏格兰和爱尔兰,使用最少的是北爱尔兰。
