이 연구는 대구광역시의 공공도서관 자원봉사자 112명의 행동요인들을 조사하가 위해, 사회복지분야에서 연구된 자원봉사의 여러 가지 행동 모델들이 공공도서관에서도 적용될 수 있다는 것을 보여준다. 선행연구의 환경적 요인, 역할모델 요인, 보상요인, 인지 요인 등이 자원봉사의 참여지속과 강도에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과, 선정된 독립변수들이 종속변수에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 이 연구에서 새롭게 투입된 공공도서관에 대한 충성도는 공공도서관 자원봉사자의 행동요인을 설명하는 중요한 요인이 될 수 있는 것으로 조사되었다.
