초록

공공도서관의 서비스 전략은 사회 환경 변화에 대한 조망을 포함해서 실질적인 서비스 수요자인 이용자에 기반하여 수립될 필요가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 부산지역 공공도서관 이용자를 대상으로 현재 제공되는 도서관 기능과 서비스에 대한 이용자들의 인식을 파악하고 앞으로의 서비스에 대한 수요를 조사·분석하였다. 데이터는 설문을 통해 수집되었고, 응답자는 부산지역의 공공도서관 이용자 733명이다. 주요한 결과는 첫째, 부산지역 이용자가 가장 중요하게 생각하는 공공도서관의 역할과 기능은 여전히 자료수집제공에 있었다. 둘째, 정보서비스 영역에서는 문화/평생학습 프로그램 서비스, 서비스 유형에서는 새로운 IT기술 체험·교육에 대한 수요가 가장 높게 나타났다. 셋째, 정보서비스 영역에 대한 ISA 분석결과에서는 자료수집제공 서비스와 정보활용교육 서비스는 계속 유지 관리해야 하고 독서 관련 서비스는 집중관리하여 확대할 필요가 있는 영역으로 나타났다. 넷째, 연령별 서비스 수요 분석에서는 41세 이상~50세 이하가 정보활용교육 서비스 영역을 제외하고 모든 영역에서 수요가 가장 높은 세대로 나타났고 정보활용교육에 대한 수요는 61세 이상의 고령층 세대에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 또한 부산의 서부권 이용자 집단이 거의 모든 서비스 영역의 수요에서 다른 지역의 이용자 집단보다 높게 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 지역사회 공공도서관 서비스를 이용자에게 최적화하기 위한 전략 수립시 기본 데이터로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

The service strategy of the public library needs to be established based on the users who are the actual beneficiaries of the services, including the perspective of changes in the social environment. This study investigated and analyzed the users' perceptions of the library functions and services currently provided and the demand for future services, targeting public library users in the Busan area. The data were collected through a questionnaire, and the respondents were 733 public library users in Busan. The main result is that first, the role and function of the public library that Busan users consider most important was still in material collection and provision. Second, in the information service type, the demand for cultural/lifelong learning program service was the highest, and in the service program, the demand for new IT technology experience and education was the highest. Third, as a result of ISA analysis of information service type, material provision service and information literacy education service were types to be maintained, and reading related service was type to be managed intensively. Fourth, in the analysis of service demand by age, those aged 41 to 50 years old were the generation with the highest demand in all types except for the information literacy education service type, and the demand for information literacy education was the highest among the elderly generation over 61 years old. And the user group in the western part of Busan was higher than the user group in other regions in demand for almost all service types. The results of this study can be used as basic data when establishing strategies to optimize community public library services for users.
