Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine for redefining the concept of literacy in Library and Information Science research field and in public library services. For the purpose, literature review, bibliometric analysis and case study were conducted. Based on the results, this study proposed the concept of literacy as "a comprehensive ability to use a medium, information and knowledge for solving the problems people faces in order to understand particular subjects or situations they are in" and the concept of literacy service as "the services or programs offered by public libraries in order to develop their patrons' literacies." This research also suggests four new literacy service concepts for public library services: early literacy service, adult literacy service, digital literacy service, information literacy service.

본 논문은 문헌정보학계와 실제 공공도서관 서비스에서의 리터러시 개념의 사용 양태를 알아보고, 이를 바탕으로 새로운 리터러시 개념을 제안하고자 하였다. 문헌연구, 계량서지적 분석, 사례연구의 결과에 기초하여 본 논문에서는 '특정 주제나 상황을 이해하고, 해당 주제와 상황에서 직면하는 문제를 해결하기 위해 매체나 정보, 지식을 활용할 수 있는 종합적인 능력'을 '리터러시'의 개념으로, 그리고 이러한 능력을 길러주기 위해 공공도서관에서 이루어지는 서비스나 프로그램을 '리터러시 서비스'로 정의하였다. 더불어 실제 공공도서관 현장에서 적용할 수 있는 리터러시 서비스를 조기 리터러시 서비스, 성인 리터러시 서비스, 디지털 리터러시 서비스, 정보 리터러시 서비스의 4가지로 구분하여 제안하였다.
