This study analyzed the procedures and contents of digitalization of sinological resources owned by major sinological resource institutes in Korea. It investigated the united organizations that use such sinological resources It also assessed governmental policies and future Plans for digitalization of sinological resources. Finally, it proposed steps and conditions necessary for successful digitalization of sinological resources. (1) The level of digitalization of library management, searching, and usage system of national library, university library, and research library that has been applied since 1980s has already been highly advanced. The amount of sinological resources collected is significant and its substance value is very high. The digitalized resources are already distributed on internet partially. However, the level of digitalization of sinological resources still lacks some aspects and requires further effort. (2) The data base for digitalized sinological resources already available can be grouped into bibliographic information, contents and annotation, and full text. and it includes both domestic and foreign resources. The quantities of resources are as described in the body (3) The types of digital sinological resources include antient books. archives, micro, and book blocks. (4) The encoding DB methods of digital sinological resources include text. image, PDF. and etc. (5) The united organizations of sinological resources enable us to avoid duplicated investigation and enhance service efficiency. Here are some factors to consider in order to accomplish ideal digitalization of sinological resources. (1) First of all, it is necessary to organize a control center for digitalization procedures of old materials, and allow it a certain degree of authority to develop and Proceed a comprehensive Plan. (2) Both short- and long-term plans need to be developed in order to analyze various aspects of digitalization process. and their steps need to be taken gradually (3) It is necessary to train experts for old materials and let them construct and manage DB.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the three aspects of the construction and common use of old document DB in the foreign countries: i) the processing of old documents, ii) the problem and improvement of DB systems of old documents. and iii) the common use of old document DB. Results from this research are as follows: The National Library of Korea(NLK) copied old documents in the foreign countries from 1982 to 2006 and published the brief catalog. The Reogang Publishing company issued four volumes catalogs of old document in Japan. The National Research Institute of Cultural Heritage(NRICH) investigated old books and published some catalogs of several organizations in Japan. America. France. and all. The National Institute of Korean History(NIKH) investigated old archives and published some catalogs of several organizations in Japan. The characteristics of the Korean Old and Rare Collection Information System(KORCIS) of the NLK, the Old Books Cultural Heritage in Overseas System of the NRICH. and the Korea History DB System and MF Catalog/ Image System of NIKH were described in the DB systems of old documents, the problems of DB systems were checked over and some alternatives were suggested. In the common use of old document DB, KORMARC format and description rules(draft) for archives should be revised to adopt a new standard such as KS editions. and all the institutes involved should thoroughly follow the standards. when creating bibliographic records and digitizing texts. It is necessary to educate and train the specialists of old documents. A government organization should be established to supervise all the procedures of developing technology for sharing digitized resources. using contents. and cooperating with the related internationl organizations and institutes.

This article is a study on methods of digitalization for older oriental books using XML (extensible Markup Language) proposed as a standard for Web documents by W3C in 1996. In this paper, to digitalize older books, 1 designed the XML DTD(Document Type Definition) for general older oriental books and input the texts of the older books on the basis of the XML DTD, examined the problems and limitations in light of the technical level these days, and established the model of the system for using XML files of older oriental books at a national level in the future.

This study aims to analyze enactment of China's old and rare books management. For the purpose, the review on China's legal system and management related to old and rare books were studied. And this study investigated 4 laws, 6 administrative regulations, 4 sector regulations, and 13 administrative normativity papers. Among those, 5 major sources for old and rare books management were identified as follows : 1) China's National Civilization Protection Law in 2013, 2) China's Old and Rare Book Organization Directive in 1989, 3) Regulation on Management of Research, Organization, and Publication of Old and Rare Books in 1986, 4) Standards on Grading Classification of Civilization Collections in 2001, and 5) Provisional Regulation on Civilization Auctioning in 2003. Based on the analysis of these sources, this study deduced implications in terms of Chinese old and rare books management such as the necessity to give considerations to 1) the importance of old and rare books management policy, 2) nationwide old and rare books management, 3) expansion of eduction and training of human resources, 4) establishment of institution specializing in old and rare books, and 5) special management of science of Chinese medicine.

The cataloging rules of AACR families and bibliographic structure, which are broadly used in describing resources, show limitations in reflecting the unique bibliographic characteristics of Korean old materials. Thus this research proposed a bibliographic structure optimized to the unique bibliographic characteristics of Korean old materials by establishing bibliographic relationships between bibliographic entities based on the FRBR LRM conceptual model. The bibliographic relationships should be established in the way of connecting related materials in the bibliographic structure. These relationships should sufficiently reflect the bibliographic characteristics of the materials, physical variations, and content variations. Through this structure, the bibliographic description can be separated and integrated into the bibliograhpic unit by applying LRM conceptual model. By using the proposed structure, the organization, management, and utilization of Korean old materials can be more efficient. Also, it can provide a new bibliographic environment that can be the foundation of creating BIBFRAME records for Korean old materials.

고문헌의 텍스트와 이미지를 디지털 방식으로 축적하여 제공하는 사례가 많아지고 있다. 전자화된 고문헌은 기존의 보존방안이었던 영인본이나 마이크로필름의 단점을 극복하고, 네트워크와 발달된 정보기술을 통해 매우 효율적인 정보이용수단을 제공할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 영국 Electronic Beowulf와 한글과컴퓨터사의 삼국사기 CD 96의 사례를 분석하여 고문헌을 디지털 방식으로 축적하고자 할 때 고려해야 할 사항을 제시하고, 이렇게 축적된 정보자원이 어떻게 이용자의 정보요구를 충족시킬 수 있을지 활용방안을 논하고자 한다.

This article is a study on methods of digitalization for eider books using PDF (Portable Document Format) supported by Acrobat 4.0 which was introduced in April of 1999. Acrobat 3.0 has caused many problems in supporting Korean language or Hangul. However, the revised 4.0 version of this software made the conversion of Korean, Japanese and Chinese language possible due to its support by the multi-language fonts. Therefore, it Is possible to converse and to edit the text file of older books written with Hangul. The Acrobat Reader, the viewer of PDF, can be downloaded for free from its website. However, the digitalized text of older books by PDF has still some problems. But the user can retrieve the text of older books from the Internet easily.

본 논문에서는 영상처리 및 패턴 인식 기법을 이용하여 고문헌의 진위판정을 행하는 시스템을 제안하고자 한다. 통상 고문헌은 재질, 서지 형태, 판본과 서문 그리고 내사본과 낙관, 인장, 소장인등에 의해 진위 판정을 행한다. 본 논문에서는 이중 판본에 대해 진위 판정을 행하는 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 이를 위해 조선시대의 37가지 활자본에 대해 영상의 경계 구조 특성 파악에 의한 히스토그램 분석과 각 획의 각도와 길이 그리고 획의 두께 등에 의해 진위 판정을 행하고자 한다. 끝으로 실험에 의해 본 논문의 유용성을 입증하고자 한다.

이 연구는 그동안 밝혀지지 않았던 꼴레쥬드 프랑스에 소장된 한국 고문헌을 실사(實事)하여 소장본의 규모와 전래경위, 자료적 특징을 살피는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 특히, 구한말 한국 고문헌의 현황과 프랑스 내 한국 고문헌 소재파악의 중요한 참고문헌인 "한국서지(Bibliographie Coreenne)"를 저술한 모리스 꾸랑(Maurice Courant, 1865-1935) 개인 소장본과 꼴레쥬드 프랑스 소장본과의 관계를 규명하였다. 이를 통하여 국외 한국 문화재의 기초조사에 일조를 하고자 하며 향후 활용방안을 모색해 보고자 한다.
