Abstract

This study analyzed the legal deposit, acquisition, and donation status from 2020 to 2022, along with the deposit status of e-publications with issued ISBNs. Through this analysis, the study derived improvement measures to strengthen compliance with legal deposit obligations for domestic e-publications. The key findings are as follows: The collection methods were acquisition (57.07%), legal deposit (41.74%), and donation (1.19%). The file formats varied, including e-books (pdf, epub), webtoons (jpg), and audiobooks (mp3). Most e-publications collected were published from 2012 to 2022, with some from 1960 to 2011. Webtoons dominated acquired materials, while legal deposits mainly comprised e-books. Analyzing the status of e-publications with issued ISBNs, e-books (96.2%) were most common, with the literature field receiving the highest number of ISBNs. Most ISBNs were issued during 2020 to 2022. Looking at the top 10 publishers, the low legal deposit rate indicates the need for improvement. To address this, proposed improvement measures include enhancing publishers' awareness of legal deposits, strengthening incentives and sanctions, encouraging voluntary participation through transparent disclosure of the legal deposit status, and improving the accuracy of data in the ISBN issuance and deposit system.

본 연구는 최근 3년(2020-2022)간 국내 전자출판물의 납본·자체수집·수증 현황과 ISBN이 발급된 전자출판물의 납본 및 미납본 현황을 분석하였다. 이를 통해 국내 전자출판물의 납본 의무 이행 독려하기 위한 개선방안을 제안하고자 하였다. 먼저 국내 전자출판물의 납본·자체수집·수증 현황의 주요 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 전자출판물 수집형태는 자체수집(57.07%), 납본(41.74%), 수증(1.19%)이었으며, 파일 형식은 전자책(pdf, epub), 웹툰(jpg), 오디오북(mp3)으로 다양하였다. 주로 2012년부터 2022년 사이에 출판된 전자출판물이 수집되었으며, 1960년부터 2011년 사이에 출판된 자료도 일부 수집되었다. 자체수집은 웹툰이 많았고, 납본은 전자책이 주를 이루었다. ISBN 발급 현황을 보면, 자료유형은 전자책(96.2%)이, 주제분야는 문학 분야가 가장 많은 ISBN을 발급받았다. 2020년부터 2022년 사이에 가장 많은 ISBN이 발급되었다. ISBN 발급 상위 10위 발행처의 납본율을 보면, 전체적으로 ISBN 발급을 받은 발행처들의 납본율이 저조하여 이를 개선하기 위한 노력이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 이에 개선방안으로 발행처의 납본 의무에 대한 인식 제고, 인센티브 제공 및 제재 조치 강화, 납본 현황의 투명한 공개를 통한 자발적 참여 유도, 그리고 ISBN 발급 및 납본 시스템의 데이터 정확성 향상을 위한 기술적 조치의 필요성을 제안하였다.
