A Study on the Job Development and Reorganization Strategy of the National Library of Korea, Sejong

국립세종도서관 직무개발 및 조직개편 전략 연구

The National Library of Korea (Sejong), which was launched in December 2013, has been in the spotlight as a specialized library for Korean policy information and as a Sejong city complex cultural facility. Nevertheless, the essential identity, organizational status, division of affairs and core competencies, policy information collection, and services of the NLK (Sejong) are weak and inadequate. Therefore, this study developed a job model for establishing an essential identity and providing high-quality policy information services nationwide and suggested a strategic organizational reorganization plan. The job model was proposed as a total of 110 by adding 38 to the existing 72. Based on this job model, the short-term reorganization model (2023-2024) changed the grade of the library director from the current grade 4 (administrative officer) to Senior Executive, and the grade of the director by division from grade 5 (secretary) to grade 4. The sub-organization has expanded the current 3 divisions (planning management, policy information, and service use) to 4 divisions (planning administration, library collection and development, policy information service, and public service and culture, with a total of 51 personnel. In the mid-to-long-term model (2025-2032), the sub-organization was expanded to 4 divisions and 1 office (planning administration, library collection and development, policy information service, public service and culture, and policy information research), and presented a total of 61 personnel. To this end, it is necessary to persuade stakeholders with the argument of advocating the Korean policy information center, which is a macro-strategic goal, and focus all capabilities on strategic reorganization and revision of 「Decree on the Organization of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism」.

2013년 12월 출범한 국립세종도서관은 한국 정책정보 특화도서관과 세종시 복합문화시설로 각광받아 왔다. 그럼에도 본질적 정체성, 조직적 위상, 사무분장과 핵심역량, 정책자료 수집과 서비스 등은 여전히 취약하고 부실하다. 이에 본 연구는 정체성 정립 및 고품질 정책정보서비스의 전국적 제공을 위한 직무모형을 개발하고, 전략적 조직개편 방안을 제시하였다. 직무모형은 기존 72개에 38개를 추가하여 총 110개로 제안하였다. 이를 기반으로 단기 조직개편 모형(2023-2024)은 관장 직급을 현재 4급(서기관)에서 고위공무원단(직무등급은 나급)으로, 과장을 5급(사무관)에서 4급으로 상향 조정하였다. 하부조직은 현재 3과(기획관리과, 정책자료과, 서비스이용과)를 4과(기획행정과, 자료수집개발과, 정책정보서비스과, 대중서비스문화과)로 개칭·확대하고 인력은 총 51명으로 구성하였다. 중장기 모형(2025-2032)은 하부조직을 4과 1실(기획행정과, 자료수집개발과, 정책정보서비스과, 대중서비스문화과, 정책정보연구실)로 확대하고, 소요인력을 총 61명으로 제시하였다. 이를 위해서는 거시적·전략적 목표인 '한국 정책정보센터'를 표방한다는 논지로 이해집단을 설득시키고, 전략적 조직개편 및 직제개정에 모든 역량을 집중해야 한다.
