The data-driven research environment is rapidly changing. Accordingly, domestic university libraries are also preparing to establish and operate research data management services to support university researchers. This study was designed to propose a research data management service to support researchers in science and technology specialized university libraries. In order to propose the service, 11 universities specializing in science and technology were selected from overseas and domestic universities and their research data management services were analyzed. Key categories were derived from analysis results, research data management, electronic research notebooks, and RDM training. In particular, the 'research data management' category included DMP, data collection, data management, data preservation, data sharing and publishing, data reuse, infrastructure and tools. And it consists of RDM guides and policies. The results of this study will be helpful in introducing and operating research data management services in science and technology specialized university libraries.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the field librarians' opinions of the library specialization and specialized librarian and understand the librarians' working conditions and environment. Questionnaire were developed based on the previous studies and surveys were conducted with the librarians of public libraries, university libraries, and professional librarians across the nation. A total of 392 librarians have responded to the survey. As for the main result, the users' satisfaction with the specialization service was perceived to be high, and the most difficult matter in performing the specialization service is the lack of knowledge on the subject matter, and the library environment for the specialization service is not enough. The specialization service should be led by the theme specialized librarians, and the qualification criteria for the theme specialized librarians are required, and the qualification systems should be managed by the state.

Community colleges are key constituents of higher education in Korea, along with four-year universities. The number of community colleges in Korea also holds significance. However, the main focus of the Master Plan for Library Development decisively lies in university libraries, with little consideration to the poor condition of community college libraries. This study aims to identify problems of community college libraries by conducting a document research on their current standing and, based on that, to present six policy proposals for government support. They are a) to develop library collections based on the school specialty, b) to build theme-oriented libraries, c) to facilitate cooperation between community college libraries, d) to reinforce capacities for library service, e) to improve legal status of community college libraries and develop an evaluation index, f) and to estimate demand and evaluate service quality.
