Article 22(1) of the Library Act, which was completely revised in December 2006, stipulated that regional representative libraries are statutory organizations, and Article 25(1) of the Library Act, which was revised again in late 2021, renamed them as metropolitan representative libraries and expanded their duties. The reason why cities and provinces are required to specify or establish and operate metropolitan representative libraries is that in addition to their role as public libraries for public information use, cultural activities, and lifelong learning as stipulated in Article 23 of the Act, they are also responsible for the legal works of metropolitan representative libraries as stipulated in Article 26, and lead the development of libraries and knowledge culture by serving as policy libraries, comprehensive knowledge information centers, support and cooperation centers, research centers, and joint preservation libraries for all public libraries in the city or province. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze and diagnose whether the metropolitan representative library has been faithfully fulfilling its legal works for the past 15 years(2009-2023), and whether it is properly providing the results of its statutory planning and implementation on its website to meet the digital and mobile era. Therefore, this study investigated and analyzed the performance of the metropolitan representative library for the last two years based on the current statutory tasks and evaluated the extent to which it provides them through its website, and suggested complementary measures to strengthen its web services. As a result, it was analyzed that the web services for legal works that the metropolitan representative library should perform are quite insufficient and inadequate, so it suggested complementary measures such as building a website for legal works on the homepage, enhancing accessibility and visibility through providing an independent website, providing various policy information and web services (portal search, inter-library loan, one-to-one consultation, joint DB construction, data transfer and preservation, etc.), and ensuring digital accessibility of knowledge information for the vulnerable.

The purpose of this research is to examine the characteristics and problems of the OASIS, an web archive, developed and operated by the National Library of Korea. An analysis of 55 websites collected in seven subject areas, including 'Philosophy', 'Religion', 'Literature', 'Social Sciences-Politics', and 'Technology-Technology' in the OASIS website shows the following problems: lack of balance in subject distribution, lack of authority or scholarly value of some contents, unclear application of selection criteria for personal creators/publishers, ambiguous definition of 'archiving', and inappropriate counting of collection and usage statistics. Some comprehensive and systematic efforts to improve the OASIS contents seem to be urgently needed.

최근에는 도서관 웹사이트보다는 상용 검색엔진이나 포털사이트를 통해 학술정보 검색서비스를 이용하는 이용자가 많아지고 있다. 링크리졸버는 검색엔진과 도서관 서비스를 연결할 수 있으며, 이용자는 한 번의 클릭으로 소속 도서관에서 구독하고 있는 자료에 접근할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 국가과학기술정보센터(NDSL)에서 서비스하고 있는 과학기술정보와 외부의 학술자원을 링킹할 수 있는 링크리졸버를 OpenAPI 형태로 설계하고 구현하였다.

This study was conducted to analyze the characteristics of the artificial intelligence chatbot service of the library and compare the usability of the chatbot service applied to the library, and to propose a plan to improve the usability of the artificial intelligence chatbot service in the library. In order to achieve this research purpose, usability comparison factors were extracted through previous studies on the usability evaluation of artificial intelligence chatbot services, and based on case studies, artificial intelligence chatbot services applied to libraries were classified into their own website-based and SNS-based chatbot services according to the platform. Experiments, questionnaires, and interviews were conducted to evaluate the usability of website-based and SNS-based chatbot services applied to the library. Based on the results of the usability evaluation, implications and improvement plans for the artificial intelligence chatbot service of the library were derived.

본 연구는 일반 시민이 공공도서관에 가지는 역할 이미지의 유형과, 그러한 역할 이미지들이 어떠한 경로를 통해 형성되는지 파악하고자 하였다. 연구는 다양한 공공도서관 이용정도를 보이는 서울특별시 시민 6명을 대상으로 한 개별심층면담을 통해 이루어졌다. 면담 내용을 분석한 결과, 다양한 경험 중 직접 도서관을 이용해 본 경험이 공공도서관에 대한 인식을 형성하는 가장 큰 경로로 나타났다. 특히 응답자들의 사서에 대한 이미지와 도서관에 느끼는 이미지가 매우 유사하였다. 간접적인 경험 중에서는 주변인의 공공도서관 경험이 가장 큰 영향을 미쳤으며, 홍보물, 언론, 웹사이트 등은 큰 영향을 미치지 못한 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this research is to examine the characteristics and current status of OASIS, a web archive, developed and operated by the National Library of Korea. From December 2013 to November 2014, an analysis of a numerical growth and subject distribution of 55,581 websites archived at OASIS shows many problems in quality, including an overwhelming proportion of 'Social Science' and its subclass 'Politics', consequential lack of balance in subject distribution, lack of authority or scholarly value of some contents, unclear application of selection criteria for personal creators/publishers, and inaccurate and overlapping statistics. Despite an impressive growth in quantity, immediate improvement of selection policies and quality control is needed.

The purpose of this study is to examine the characteristics and continuity of 'One Book, One City' community reading campaign in the U.S.A. An analysis of 584 'One Book' projects registered in the Library of Congress, the Center for the Books shows that this innovative model of reading campaign has been diffused through three stages: the beginning(1998-2001), the growth (2002-2006), and the second take-off(2007-present). The stability of more than fifty 'One Book' projects was confirmed and the continuing diffusion of 'One Book' model through 'The Big Read' Initiative and some projects' attempt to try new directions seem worth observing.
