Beyond Reading: Exploring Multicultural Services in University Libraries Guided by Musical Aesthetics

Abstract

University libraries, as the core site for cultural inheritance and education in universities, are important cultural spaces for teachers and students to expand their knowledge and improve themselves. They are also key bridges for higher education to promote cultural construction and the development of spiritual civilization. Music, as an art form that transcends language and culture boundaries, not only provides readers with profound spiritual nourishment, but also its aesthetic symbols and cultural connotations are widely permeated in life and learning scenarios, exerting positive educational value. Recently, university libraries have gradually broken through the limitations of traditional document services and explored innovative paths of diversified education through music as a medium. This article, based on the orientation of aesthetic cultivation in music, systematically reviews the background logic of music aesthetic leading the diversified cultural services of libraries, providing practical paths for university libraries to transform from a “document-centered” model to a “moral education cultural space”, and helping to improve and enhance the quality of university aesthetic education and cultural services.
