Abstract (2. Language): 
In the USA, last decade witnessed a huge interest in children’s early literacy development. All public agencies, as a part of public support to education, started to align their visions and missions to contribute to this sort of interest along with the support of the federal government. The Federal Government supported this growing interest with several acts and hence, all public agencies including ALA and other library associations revised their mission statements. Public libraries, with their special feature of the equal and free access to the public they serve, were considered to be one of the most appropriate places to support children’s early literacy development. In that context, a public library was chosen in terms of its staffs’ perceptions of early literacy and their services to the clientele. The study results revealed that the library staff believe in the importance of children’s early literacy development, and prepare programs to support it, although they have some constraints such as shortage of funds and difficulties in reaching all the people in the community.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Son on yıl, Amerika‘da çocukların erken okuma-yazma gelişimleri üzerine büyük bir ilginin odağı oldu. Bütün kamu kurumları eğitime destek çerçevesinde görev ve vizyon durumlarını Federal hükümetin de desteğiyle büyüyen bu ilgiye destek olabilmek amacıyla yeniden değerlendirmeye aldılar. Federal hükümet çocukların erken okuma-yazmaya olan ilgilerinin desteklenmesini çeşitli kanunlarla destekledi ve Amerikan Kütüphane Derneği başta olmak üzere diğer kütüphane dernekleri ve ilgili bütün kamu kurumları görev tanımlarını yenilediler. Bununla beraber, halk kütüphaneleri, toplumun her kesiminden insanlara açık ve ücretsiz erişim sağlayan bir kurum olarak, çocukların erken okuma-yazma gelişimini destekleyebilecek en önemli kurumların başında gösterildi. Bubağlamda bu çalışmada, bir halk kütüphanesinin personelinin konuya olan bakış açısı ve bu konuyla ilgili olarak verdikleri hizmetler değerlendirildi. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre seçilen halk kütüphanesinin personeli her ne kadar para sorunları başta olmak üzere toplumun her kesimine erişmede zorluklarla karşılaşsalar da konunun öneminin farkında olup bu bağlamda hizmet vermeye çalışmaktadırlar.
