초록

본 연구는 미국 지역 교육구 학교도서관 담당관의 지위 및 역할을 소개하고 이를 우리나라 실정에 맞는 인력으로 활용하고자 함에 그 목적을 두었다. 연구 진행을 위해 문헌조사법, 관찰법, 설문조사법과 인터뷰법을 시행하였으며, 그 결과 사서교사의 업무를 강화시키고 지역 내 학교도서관을 효율적으로 관리, 지원함에 있어서 학교도서관 담당관의 역할이 절실히 요구됨을 확인하였다. 따라서 우리나라에서도 지역별 학교도서관 담당관 직위의 비치를 통해 학교도서관 활성화를 꾀할 수 있음을 확신한다. 설문조사의 결과, 학교도서관 담당관의 전공은 문헌정보학이 중심이 되어야 하며, 문헌정보학에 대한 해박한 지식 뿐 아니라 테크놀러지 지식, 교육자로서의 자질, 관리자로서의 리더쉽, 커뮤니케이션 기술, 사서교사를 대변하는 대변인으로서의 자질이 요구되었다.
