Abstract

To promote libraries as "Libraries for All," it is essential to assess the current state of regional library infrastructures and explore policy support strategies for their improvement. This study develops the 'Library Vitality Index' as a metric to evaluate libraries' capabilities as sustainable infrastructures. The index assesses various aspects, including libraries' environmental responsiveness, accessible design, level of digital transformation, and capacity to provide universal cultural services. The research involved a comprehensive review of domestic and international cases, Delphi surveys, and expert group interviews to derive the final set of indicators. These indicators were weighted based on their importance using AHP analysis. The final index consists of three components: regional library activation (300 points), individual library capacity (470 points), and feedback systems (30 points), with a total of 800 points. The index includes 108 items, divided into 14 for regional library activation, 88 for individual library capacity, and 6 for feedback systems.

도서관이 '모두를 위한 도서관'으로 발전하려면 현재 지역단위 도서관 인프라에 대한 평가와 이를 향상시키기 위한 정책적 지원 방안을 찾는 것이 필요하다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 지역단위 도서관 인프라를 진단하고, 지속 가능한 인프라로서의 역량을 평가할 수 있는 측정단위로 '도서관 활력지수'를 개발하였다. 본 지수는 도서관의 친환경 대응력, 디지털 전환 수준, 무장애 설계, 보편적 문화향유 서비스 제공 역량 등을 측정한다. 연구는 국내·외 사례 조사, 델파이 조사, 전문가 그룹 인터뷰를 통해 최종 지표를 도출하였으며, AHP 분석을 통해 중요도에 따른 가중치를 부여하였다. 최종 지표는 지역 도서관 활성화(300점), 단위 도서관 역량(470점), 환류 시스템(30점)으로, 총 800점으로 구성되었다. 문항은 1. 지역 도서관 활성화 총 14개, 2. 단위 도서관 역량 총 88개, 3. 환류시스템 총 6개로 108문항으로 구성된다.
