Abstract

The purpose of this study is to suggest ways to improve development plans of academic libraries in Korea, comparing development plans of academic libraries in Korea and strategic plans of academic libraries in advanced countries. For this purpose, development plans and strategic plans of academic libraries in and out of Korea were collected and analyzed. And a rubric evaluation was applied to the case plans. The findings indicate that development plans of academic libraries in Korea are written for present problems and individual work, and lack mission and vision statement. On the other hand, strategic plans of academic libraries in advanced countries present distinct mission and vision statement, and set up goals, objectives, concrete activities in the framework. As a conclusion, this study suggests that academic libraries in Korea need mission statement and vision statement, task force of librarians, links among mission and vision and concrete activities. This study can contribute for librarians of academic libraries to develop strategic plans in Korea. This study can be used as a basic consideration for the establishment and evaluation of strategic plans at academic libraries in Korea. As follow-up studies, further case study about academic library which develops and activates strategic plan in Korea, comparative study on development plans and strategic plans of national libraries and public libraries in Korea and overseas are needed.

이 연구의 목적은 국내 대학도서관의 발전계획과 선진국 대학도서관의 전략적 계획을 비교하여 국내 대학도서관 발전계획의 개선 방안을 제시하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위하여 국내외 주요 대학의 도서관 발전계획과 전략적 계획을 수집하여 비교하고 루브릭 평가를 시행하였다. 분석 결과, 국내 대학도서관의 발전계획은 당면 과제와 개별 업무 위주로 작성되는 경향이 짙고 사명과 비전의 제시가 미흡한 반면, 선진국 대학도서관의 전략적 계획은 사명과 비전을 명확하게 제시하고 그러한 틀에서 목적과 목표 및 세부업무를 설정함으로써 도서관의 장기적 발전을 견인하는 양상을 보였다. 이 연구는 결론으로 국내 대학도서관에서의 사명과 비전의 천명, 사서 중심의 태스크포스 결성, 사명과 비전과 세부 계획의 연계 등을 제시하였다. 이 연구는 국내 대학도서관 사서들이 전략적 계획을 수립하는 데 기여할 수 있다. 이 연구의 의의는 국내 대학도서관에서 전략적 계획을 수립하고 평가할 때 기초적인 고려사항으로 활용될 수 있다는 점이다. 향후 연구로 전략적 계획을 개발하고 시행하는 국내 대학도서관에 대한 사례연구, 국립도서관 및 공공도서관에서의 발전계획과 전략적 계획의 비교연구 등이 필요하다.
