Abstract

The sharing economy has been evaluated as a sustainable system dominating the next 10 years and one of the 10 ideas which can change the world. The purpose of this study is to reveal whether there is any relevance between the sharing economy and libraries, if the library can be the core model of the sharing economy, and to propose how libraries could contribute to a sharing economy. To this end, literature related to the sharing economy and the actual cases of its implementation were analyzed. The results are as follows: First, the library was evaluated as a successful model of the sharing economy because it has shared information and tools for centuries. Therefore, it was concluded that the library could be an institution that can lead to a sharing economy. Second, it was analyzed that the library could foster the sharing economy through offering its space, and functioning as the infinite imagination room and smart work center, sharing goods through Little Free Libraries, as well as various other resources of library, and sharing various types of knowledge including reference services. Third, it can be said that the possibility of realizing a shared economy in libraries is inexhaustible, and librarians can play an active role and will positively influence the success or failure in terms of realizing the sharing economy. In the future, there needs to be a study to measure the practices and the performance of the sharing economy of libraries.

공유경제가 향후 10년을 지배할 지속가능한 시스템, 그리고 세상을 변화시킬 10가지 아이디어 중 하나로 평가되고 있는 가운데, 본 연구에서는 공유경제가 도서관과 어떤 관련성이 있으며, 공유경제의 핵심모델로서 도서관은 공유경제 활성화에 어떻게 기여할 수 있을 것인지에 대해 제안하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 공유경제관련 문헌분석 및 공유경제 실현 사례 등을 종합적으로 분석하였으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 도서관은 수세기 동안 정보 및 도구를 공유해 온 공유경제의 성공적 모델로서 도서관이 공유경제를 리드할 수 있는 기관이 될 수 있을 것으로 분석되었다. 둘째, 도서관은 무한상상실 및 스마트워크센터 기능을 하는 장소 및 공간의 공유, 도서관의 각종 자원은 물론 리틀프리도서관을 통한 물품의 공유, 그리고 참고서비스 및 각종 지식의 공유를 통해 공유경제를 실현할 수 있을 것으로 보인다. 셋째, 도서관에 공유경제를 실현할 수 있는 가능성은 무궁무진하다고 할 수 있는데, 그 역할을 적극적으로 해내고 성패를 좌우하는 것은 사서라는 것이다. 향후에는 도서관 공유경제 실현사례의 성과를 측정하는 연구가 수행될 필요가 있다고 본다.
