Abstract

According to the library act, the regional central library is not only a public library but also a library representing the metropolitan municipalities in Korea. But the status and role of current representative libraries are so weak that they are nothing more than large public libraries. Focusing on realistic vulnerability, this study analyzed the major weaknesses and limitations of regional central libraries and suggested ways to normalize legal positions and operations in terms of revising and supplementing the library act, restructuring and strengthening the tasks to be performed, and expanding the manpower and operating organization directly connected with core competencies.

국내 지역대표도서관은 "도서관법"에 따른 개별 공공도서관인 동시에 광역시 도를 대표하는 도서관이다. 그러나 현 단계 대다수 지역대표도서관의 위상과 역할은 대규모 공공도서관에 불과할 정도로 취약하다. 이러한 현실에 주목하여 본 연구는 지역대표도서관의 주요 약점과 한계를 분석한 다음, 그 명칭을 광역대표도서관으로 개칭해야 한다는 전제하에 "도서관법"의 개정 보완, 수행업무의 재구성과 충실화 핵심역량과 직결되는 인력 및 운영조직 확대 등의 측면에서 위상정립 및 운영의 정상화 방안을 제시하였다.
