Public libraries play a crucial role in disseminating knowledge to society.However, most of their users do not have the specialized knowledge tounderstand the new research findings. Providing plain language summaries (PLSs)in public libraries is a way to make the new research findings more accessibleand understandable for the public. This article proposes a framework forproviding PLSs as a new service in public libraries. Drawing from theliterature on science and society, PLSs, and public libraries, a theoreticalframework is developed. The findings suggest that public libraries can collectPLSs through different methods, such as professional teams, researchers,crowdsourcing, etc. Library newsletters, special publications, brochures,independent online databases, and social networks are among the most effectivefor making PLSs accessible to users. By proposing a framework for providingPLSs in public libraries, this study helps to bridge the gap between scientificresearch and the public.
