미국에서는 1998년 워싱턴주 시애틀에서 '만약 시애틀 전체 시민이 같은 책을 읽는다면 (if All of Seattle Read the Same Book)${\cdots}$'이라는 프로젝트로 시작한 '한 도시, 한 책' 운동이 2001년 일리노이주 시카고에서 '한 책, 한 시카고(One Book, One Chicago)'로 본격화되었다. 국내에서는 2003년 충남 서산에서의 '한 책' 시범 운영 후 김해와 순천, 부산, 청주, 대전, 용인, 부천 등 여러 도시에서 '같이 또 다르게' 진행되고 있다. 김해에서도 2007년 '책 읽는 도시-김해'를 선포하면서 시작한 "김해의 책"이 올해로 5년째를 맞는다. 그간의 활동을 정리하며 "김해의 책"이 갖는 비전과 사회적 책읽기로서의 가능성에 대해 전망해 본다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics and continuity of 'One Book, One City' community reading campaign in the U.S.A. An analysis of 584 'One Book' projects registered in the Library of Congress, the Center for the Books shows that this innovative model of reading campaign has been diffused through three stages: the beginning(1998-2001), the growth (2002-2006), and the second take-off(2007-present). The stability of more than fifty 'One Book' projects was confirmed and the continuing diffusion of 'One Book' model through 'The Big Read' Initiative and some projects' attempt to try new directions seem worth observing.

The purpose of this research is to document the current state of 'One Book, One City' community reading campaign (Hereafter called 'One Book' reading campaign), launched in 2003 in Korea, and the characteristics of the selected books. For this research, the homepages, news and reports of a total of 1,170 public libraries and their local government, and several major institutions and organizations related to reading and culture were analyzed with the research method of content analysis and literature review. Also, online catalogs of the National Library of Korea and the National Library for Children and Young Adults were examined to identify the characteristics of 729 titles and 1,179 volumes of books selected in 57 'One Book' programs, as of 2021. The analysis of 57 'One Book' programs and those selected books shows the selection of more than one books in different age groups in more and more 'One Book' programs, lack of consistency in themes of those selected books, and preference for young adult books, new publications and bestselling novels. This trend has weakened individual 'One Book' programs' concentration on one book or one subject, but helped invite a diverse group of people with various interests. More in-depth analysis and explanation of the process of book selection and its appropriateness with the stated goals of 'One Book' programs are needed.

작년 겨울쯤 발행된 책 중 앤 패디먼이 쓴 'Ex Libris 서재 결혼시키기'라는 책을 본 적이 있는가? 이 책 서문에 저자가 한 말들이 참 인상적이다. '책은 선반 가운데가 내려앉은 내 책꽂이들을 빽뺵하게 채우고 있는 그 수많은 잡동사니로부터 내가 창조하려고 했던 그 전체이다' 또한 '책들은 우리의 삶의 이야기를 써 나간다. 책들이 우리 서가에(또 창틀에, 소파 밑에, 냉장고 위에) 쌓이면서 그 한 권 한 권이 우리 삶의 이야기의 한 장을 구성하게 된다.'라고 읊조리고 있다. 우리의 삶을 대변해주는 책... 우리는 책을 통해 삶을 제대로 살기 위한 많은 것을 얻고 배운다. 즉, 책을 읽는다는 건 인생을 제대로 살아가는 법을 배우는 것... 자신의 내면에 깊숙이 존재하는 잠재력을 깨우기 위해 여행을 떠나는 것이 아닌가? 자신과 닮은꼴인 책... 그런 책을 내 분신과 같이 좀 더 소중하게 여기고 가깝게 느낄 수 있는 특별한 만남을 갖기 위해 장서표와 예술제본에 대해 알아보았다.
