초록

본 연구에서는 2019년부터 2021년까지 3년의 기간 동안 A 공공도서관의 대출 현황 및 대출 추이를 분석하였다. 조사 결과, 코로나 전기와 코로나 시기 간, 코로나 시기와 코로나 회복기 간에는 대출 빈도 평균 차이가 유의미한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 코로나 전기와 코로나 회복기 간에는 대출량 평균 차이가 유의미하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 3년을 통합해서 분석한 결과, 월별, 요일별, 시간대별 대출 빈도의 분포에 있어서 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 시기별로 세부 비교한 결과, 코로나 전기와 코로나 회복기의 월별. 시간대별 대출 분포가 유사하며, 코로나 시기의 월별, 시간대별 대출 분포는 코로나 전기 및 코로나 회복기와 상이한 것으로 나타났다. 코로나 시대 장기간의 공공도서 관 대출 추이에 대해 조사한 본 연구의 결과는 향후 공공도서관의 장서 개발, 서비스 운영 및 개선에 활용되고, 공공도서관 이용자들의 대출 행태와 정보 요구를 예측하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study examines circulation status and trends of a public library during three year periods from January 2019 to December 2021. There was a statistically significant difference in the mean number of circulation between the pre-Covid-19 period and the Covid-19 period, and the Covid-19 period and the Covid-19 recovery period. However, no significant difference was found between the pre-Covid-19 period and the Covid-19 recovery period. Across three years, there was a significant difference in the distribution of circulation per month. Circulation distribution was also significantly different among different days of the week and different hours of the day. Monthly circulation distribution and hourly circulation distribution during the pre-Covid-19 period was similar to those of the Covid-19 recovery period, whereas those of the Covid-19 period differed from the pre-Covid-19 period and the Covid-19 recovery period. It is expected that the results of this study could contribute to the collection development, and the management and improvement of services of public libraries. It is also expected that the results of this study could contribute to the prediction of circulation patterns and information needs of public library users.
