국민복지에 대한 사회적 관심과 복지실현의 핵심 요소로 도서관이 인식되면서 공공도서관의 수가 2000년대 들어 급격히 증가하고 있다. 1980년에 79개관에 불과했던 전국 공공도서관이 2013년 말 기준으로 885개관에 이르고 있으며, 공공도서관의 효율적 공간구성에 대한 이용자 요구가 증대되고 있다. 특히 이용자의 요구에 부응하기 위한 디지털열람실과 문화교육실의 증가는 2000년 전 후의 변화에 따른 시사점으로 나타나고 있으며, 기존 공간구성 비율에서 벗어나 시대에 적합한 도서관 공간계획이 필요한 시점이다. 이 연구는 1980~1990년대 준공된 공공도서관과 2000년 이후 설립된 공공도서관을 중심으로 시대별 공공도서관의 공간구성 형태를 상호 비교분석하였다. 장서보존과 열람 기능이 강조되었던 1980~1990년대와 이용자의 측면을 고려하여 문화영역 기능이 확대된 2000년대 이후 공공도서관의 소요시설별 면적비율의 차이를 살펴봄으로써 시대요구와 부합할 수 있는 면적기준을 제시하였다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the changes and developments in the administrative system, status, and role of public libraries in our country, and to analyze the spatial composition status according to the inter-cooperation system of public libraries located in Gwangju Metropolitan City. For this purpose, the study referenced the required space and area standards according to the status and role presented in the 2022 Public Library Construction and Operation Manual. Floor plan analysis and spatial composition analysis were conducted on the central libraries of the five districts in Gwangju Metropolitan City. The analysis results revealed redundancies and inefficiencies in the spatial composition of public libraries with similar purposes. It was found that securing the area of public libraries according to the hierarchy of administrative districts is necessary to provide smooth library services to local residents. Additionally, with the opening of the representative library in Gwangju Metropolitan City, the reconfiguration of the existing central library spaces was deemed necessary. This study can be used as a foundational resource for the efficient operation and construction of public libraries in the future.

The purpose of this study Is to identify factors for library space programs through user needs assessments in order to apply a library construction. Research method used was a questionnaire and subjects were residents and library users lived in Yongin where a new library was constructing. The results show that library use behavior, age, and user companions are identified as factors to influence to both functional space ratio and functional space arrangement. Heading in libraries is major activity and many subjects went to library with family so that family space is needed. Space for variable ages, also, is needed because of different needs based upon ages.

The development of modern science and technology has a tremendous impact on culture and communication. Therefore a library that typically serves to collect, arrange and provide information is required to perform more diversified roles to stay abreast with changing modern society. Recent surge in demand for public library construction or remodeling is expected, but we still are in an actual condition that there is no model about the library spatial operation which considers the type and a service size of library. the purpose of this study is to examine the conditions for the rational and systematic spatial management of public library in today`s changing information society, to make a case study on the state of spatial management, and to suggest the efficient rearrangement of spatial component as a solution. In this study, for rapid assembly and remodeling business plan of the library can be referred to, we should do following things for the development of a standard model which has a rational space operations that correspond to the library features and services size. Firstly, analyze the space configuration of our nation's public libraries. Secondly, collect and analyze the libraries' spatial configuration in our nation and at abroad. Thirdly, define the next stretch of public library buildings by their types and develop a reasonable model as to the spatial configuration and present it.

As one of the challenges providing sufficient Social Overhead Capital (SOC), such as cultural and sports facilities, installing small libraries and remodeling old public libraries are crucial to provide local community a public space and specialized services. In order to achieve such objectives, those libraries need to designate special themes while operating and providing services. In this study, we sought to find the relationship between the specialized themes and the spatial composition of the library. For this purpose, we investigated the specialized themes, spaces, services, spatial composition of program, and external environment. Analysis results showed that those libraries need to coordinate various areas according to the respective themes as well as categorization for its specialization subjects in order to stimulate activities of the libraries and to increase the usage rates. In addition, we have identified that a variety of spaces, such as thematic experience zones, are needed to improve the libraries' performance.

This study tries to provide the basic information for the plan to improve the information gaps of the disabled persons. After examining the legislation of the facilities for the disabled persons and former studies, it proposes some suggestions for the standards of unique space in public library, convenience facilities and traffic line. It also analyzed present conditions of five public libraries in Daegu Metropolitan City already having separate rooms and facilities for the disabled persons. The result shows that arrangement of disabled person's space and general convenience facilities are insufficient. Some facilities for disabled persons seems to be equipped just to suffice the standards. Detailed legislation or guidelines concerning facilities for them should be developed as soon as possible.

This research is a basic study to understand the current state of the complex cultural space in the public library and the programs in operation and to explore ways to activate the programs by complex cultural space based on the understanding of the public libraries that formed the complex cultural space. Thus, a survey was conducted on librarians of public libraries that had complex cultural space within the library and found that there were a number of educational, exhibition, and performance spaces, and in the same vein, there were a lot of related programs being run in the complex cultural space. However, due to the lack of personnel in charge and budget, difficulty in developing programs, low participation in the programs, and lack of cultural facilities and materials, the substantialization of complex cultural space management seems to be lacking. Therefore, it will be required to set the goals and visions for the complex cultural space in libraries and to secure space, manpower, budget, and promotional efforts to reinvigorate the complex cultural space in the future.

In the 1980's opening 79 of the end of 2013, the National Public Library that had been It was 885 its opening remains in effect. Especially in the 2000s after 60% of the whole library, a library erected since the advent of the library is enough to be a significant quantitative expansion. The resulting to make a qualitative aspect of public libraries and increase users' needs for efficient space configuration. IIn particular, the user is to serve the needs of digital reading room and the increase of the cultural training changes after 2000 years ago, and appears as due to the implications of space configuration in an age-appropriate library space off the rate plan is a necessary point. The study in the 1980s-1990s, built public library established since the year 2000 centered on public library mutual comparative analysis of space configuration form. Book reading function was the conservation and highlight 1980-1990s and considered by the side of the users culture area extended since the 2000s, public library takes the difference between the ratio of the area of the facility by the area in which you can meet the standards required and the age.
