도서관 경영에 있어서 외부의 경영자원이나 기능을 이용하려는 아웃소싱은 최근 전 세계적으로 나타나는 새로운 현상이며 조직의 리스트럭처링 업무활동의 리엔지니어링, 정보시스템의 다운사이징 등 일련의 혁신적인 문제영역 등과 함께 앞으로 연구되어야 할 부분이다. 이러한 도서관 아웃소싱 문제는 앞으로 전개될 경영혁신과 구조조정은 물론 서비스의 질적 향상과 향후 도서관의 조직변화에 영향을 미칠 주변 환경에 대한 적절한 대응을 위해 그 연구의 의미가 있다. 아웃소싱은 단순히 비용절감, 정보시스템의 다운사이징, 경영조직의 리스트럭쳐링, 리엔지니어링에 따른 감량 경영과 경영의 합리성뿐만 아니라 본래 업무의 경쟁우위를 획득하기 위한 능동적 전략기법으로 그 범위를 넓혀가고 있다.
