In this study, the current status of the public library steering committee, which is operated in accordance with Article 30 Paragraphs 2 and 3 of the Libraries Act, was examined and understood through a survey, and the direction of the promotion and policy for revitalizing the steering committee was sought moving forward. As a result of the analysis performed, the number of operations is once or twice a year, and the decisions of the steering committee meetings are reported to their supervisors, yet the reporting and disclosure of the meeting minutes are not mandatory in terms of regulations, etc., and while the importance was recognized, it turned out that the operation was carried out formally due to the lack of personnel in charge. The primary factors for revitalizing the operation were investigated as the structure of the committee, the responsibilities and authority of the committee, and the assignment of dedicated staff, etc. While there was a high perception that the enactment of a standard ordinance (proposal) was necessary, the concerns about the inhibition of autonomy were also mentioned, and hence, it is necessary to enact a standard ordinance(proposal) that sufficiently guarantees autonomy. To revitalize the steering committee, it is necessary to find various utilization and operational plans by considering holding regular meetings, supplementing systems and regulations that can reflect meeting decisions, establishing subcommittees, and assigning dedicated staff.

While small libraries have steadily increased in quantity, parts of qualitative growth such as lack of manpower and poor operation have been pointed out as problems. Accordingly, with the aim of establishing a foundation for linkage and cooperation between public libraries and small libraries, the small library itinerant librarians project has been promoted since 2010, and its scale has been continuously expanding. However, the lack of manpower and poor operation still remain tasks to be solved, and the poor treatment and job environment of itinerant librarians have not improved. In this context, this study aims to examine the problems of small libraries and job problems experienced by itinerant librarians and to find ways to improve the job environment of itinerant librarians based on this. Through the analysis of previous studies, small libraries and net companies were investigated, and in-depth interviews were conducted with participants related to itinerant librarians and small libraries. Through interview data analysis, a total of 17 meaning topics were extracted, including 'lack of work authority', 'lack of work manual', 'lack of communication, community', 'lack of integrated operating system', 'poor treatment and working environment', 'malicious user', and 'lack of belonging'. Based on this, four improvement measures were proposed, including the improvement of the job authority and standard regulations of itinerant librarians, the establishment of a community organization, job security guarantees, and job education reinforcement.

This study is a broad examination researchon LIS students' perception about public library's subject special services and subject special librarian. Students majoring in Library and Information Science as respondents, it examined the recognition level of subject special services and subject special librarian, cognition level of necessity, competencies of subject special librarians and students and opinions on special status system of subject psecial librarians. Main factors shown in the results include the the level of students' understanding and necessity of subject special services and subject special librarian, students' willingness to work as a subject special librarian, the willingness to put additional effort into equip themselves with competencies as subject special librarians. There were respondents who have equipped competencies as subject special librarians through courses provided by the department of Library and Information Science and school curriculum but have not done anything further. Respondents responded that there is a need to systematize special status system of subject special librarian and that subject specialty is important in implementing subject special services but that there is a lack of subject specialty. Based on the research results, this study suggests that there is a need to put more emphasis on developing curriculum that can help overcoming difficulties faced by students majoring in Information Sciecne and help them become competent subject special librarians.

최근 기후변화로 발생되는 폭우, 강풍 등의 기상현상으로 인해 하천범람, 내수침수, 해수범람 등 특히 해안도시지역에서의 물 문제는 날로 심화되고 있다. 이에 정부에서는 저영향개발(Low Impact Development, LID) 사업 및 친환경그린인프라(Green Infrastructure, GI) 기술요소의 적용확대를 추진하고 있다. 이에 환경부에서는 환경기술개발사업의 일환으로 '그린인프라 제도/정책 및 재원관리의 선진화(2021)' 연구용역을 통해 관련 추진체계 구축, 제도 개선방안 등을 모색하였다. 해당 연구에서는 기존의 LID 및 GI 관련 정책·제도 개선, 강우유출수 관리목표 설정방안, 투수/불투수도 제작 지침 마련, 시민인식조사 등을 통해 그린인프라 확대를 위한 과학적 근거 및 통합관리제도를 마련하였다. 이와 더불어 2013년부터 도시지역의 우수유출 저감, 물순환 구조 개선, 비점오염원 관리를 위해 '그린빗물인프라(Green Stormwater Infrastructure, GSI) 조성 사업'을 추진하여 국비지원을 지속하고 있다. 'GSI 조성사업'은 2014년 공공청사 중심에서 학교, 도서관, 체육시설, 공원 등 적용 범위를 확대 하고 있는 추세이나, 수도권지역과 물순환선도도시 조성사업이 진행중인 5개 지역(김해시, 광주시, 안동시, 울산시, 대전시)을 제외한 각 지자체에서는 실효성 있는 추진체계 및 가이드라인 부존 등의 문제로 적용에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 이에 경상남도는 지역적 특성을 반영한 GSI 조성 추진체계 마련을 목표로 본 연구용역을 추진하였으며, GSI 관련 국내외 현황조사, GSI 조성을 위한 공공청사의 우선순위 선정, 지형적(토지피복, 토양형 등), 기상학적 현황을 토대로 한 우선순위 선정, 이를 통합한 경남형 GSI 조성 추진체계를 제시하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to identify the current status of staff in school libraries and to provide suggestions for the development of these facilities through the job satisfaction of itinerant librarians, who act as support for schools which lack permanent staff. For employees in the South Korean provinces of South Jeolla, North Gyeongsan and South Gyeonsan, regions which currently operate using systems of itinerant librarians, the general status, work characteristics and systems were identified, and job satisfaction was surveyed. As a result of the survey, librarians may be in charge of anywhere from ten to two hundred schools, with approximately 30% of them being affiliated with public libraries in various municipalities. The overall job satisfaction averaged out to a score of 3.45 out of 5, with the categories of duties (4.15), a feeling of accomplishment (3.89) and communication (3.70) showing above average results, while opportunities for promotion (2.08) and job training (1.96) were on the lower end of the scale. For better job satisfaction, this study suggests an increase in the number of itinerant librarians, more job training, and having these professionals be affiliated with school boards rather than public libraries.

Government publications at public institutions are data that are intended to convey the purpose of an institution or the performance of its business to the public or inside the institution. The management of government publications has become increasingly important under the framework of laws and systems, but matters concerning the nature and value of government publications have not been carried out at records management sites. The Act focused on the archives of the six metropolitan government, and presented issues and improvement measures for efficient management of government publications. To that end, the government should maintain a consistent payment system for publications. As payment method and payment book data in government publications are presented differently by law, a system for integrated management should be established to provide brief information and original information. Second, it is necessary to establish an administrative system that meets the storage environment. The publication registration and payment book system presented by the government's publication guidelines is the central system of the National Archives and Records Service, so it is not an efficient system in the agency archives. Third, support should be provided to recognize the value of government publications and to preserve and manage them in the long term. To dispose of the government publications, a realistic classification method, integrated and controlled program should be presented, and criteria for users using the service should be provided. Fourth, it is the establishment of an integrated management system for government publications. The National Archives Service, the National Central Library, and the National Assembly Library should simultaneously build an abstract of information and original information so that they can be managed systematically and efficiently.

This paper covers the current status and problems of the archival ecosystem. Since the enactment of the Records Management Act, the archival ecosystem has grown rapidly, but in retrospect, the discipline of archival science has stagnated, records management practice is overly concentrated in the public sector, the records management infrastructure in the private sector is weak, and the industry is failing. In recent years, the archival community has continued to discuss these issues, but mostly in the context of public records management, especially in the field. In this article, we look at the archival community as a whole, including the problems of archival academia and universities, the professionalism and qualification system of archivists, the Records Management Act limited to the public domain, and the difficulties of the industry, and propose alternatives in terms of professionalism and localization.
