Recently, public libraries as complex cultural spaces are becoming a trend, and public libraries as complex facilities that are built in one building or one site are being highlighted. This can be seen as part of a policy to expand public libraries as part of the government's Living SOC project. The establishment of libraries in government office is also included in this movement. Therefore, this study presented excellent cases by investigating the current state of government office in Korea and investigated citizens' perception on the establishment of public libraries in Busan Metropolitan City Hall. Based on this, a basic plan for the operation of public libraries in Busan Metropolitan City Hall, including basic directions, organization and manpower, collection development, and service programs (including specialization program), was proposed.

The directions of recent library construction and operation reflect people's changed lifestyle and suggest innovative spaces specialized on the basis of the local environment. Hence, as the goals of the operation of (tentatively named) Songdaeso Library to be constructed within the Hantangang River UNESCO Global Geopark, this study proposes 'acting as complex cultural facilities,' 'operating stay-type reading culture space which is a shrine for workcation,' and 'acting as the landmark of A-gun (郡, county).' And this study works out strategies for its operation, which includes 'securing the validity of the construction of (tentatively named) Songdaeso Library,' 'linking to library policy as the driving force behind its operation,' and 'demonstrating the necessity for the existence of the library arising from the operation of the geological specialized library through landscape architecture.' It also presents concomitant operating plans, which are categorized into plans for manpower, library books, services, and budget.

This research reports the results from the pilot evaluation of academic libraries in Korea conducted from September through November 2010 to test the applicability and feasibility of an evaluation model and evaluation indicators developed by this research team. In the first and second stages of this pilot evaluation, quantitative and qualitative indicators were respectively used, and in the third stage a survey for user satisfaction was conducted. Out of 58 applicants which applied for this evaluation, a total of 9 libraries were selected as excellent libraries for each group classified according to the size of a library(large, medium, and small) in 3 areas of specialization and 1 library was awarded the best performed library. Despite such limitations as the use of experimental indicators and a pressing schedule, there were some positive effects including the use of formal statistics, an objective assessment of current status of academic libraries, and the improved interest of university administration in academic libraries.

인터넷이 발달함으로써 기존에 아날로그 콘텐츠들을 디지털 콘텐츠로 이용하게 되고, 오프라인의 불편한 점을 온라인으로 이용함으로써 해결하게 되었다. 디지털 콘텐츠의 발달로 인해 다양한 분야에서 디지털 콘텐츠를 이용하여 오프라인 시스템을 대체하게 되었다. 기존의 오프라인 온라인 도서관의 경우 사용자가 직접 도서관을 방문하여 이용해야 하고 도서관이 보유하고 있는 책의 종류가 적고, 부족한 장서로 인한 불편함이 있다. 이를 디지털 콘텐츠화하여 e-Book으로 이용하게 되었으며, 온라인으로 디지털화된 콘텐츠를 이용함으로써 편리하게 도서관을 이용할 수 있게 되었다. 하지만 디지털 콘텐츠의 공유가 쉽다는 특성으로 인해 무분별한 유포로 출처를 찾기 어렵고, 해당 콘텐츠의 저작권 문제, 무단 복제로부터 안전한 시스템이 필요하게 되었다. 본 논문에서는 위와 같은 문제점을 해결하고자 디지털 콘텐츠 서비스를 이용하고, 콘텐츠를 암호화하여 DRM 시스템을 이용하여 무단 배포를 방지하고 저작권을 보호할 수 있는 안전하고 편리한 온라인 도서관을 이용하도록 하는 시스템을 설계 및 구현하였다.

This study focused on the public library evaluation indicators in 2022 to examine the changes and improvement recommendations. In addition, this study analyzed the results of changes in the proportion between the qualitative and quantitative evaluation. Eventually, there was a comparison between the current and previous evaluation outcomes. Furthermore, we examined the effectiveness of the current evaluation groupings of libraries. Then, we tried to discover new quantitative evaluation variables that affected the evaluation score calculation. Finally, we proposed a method for estimating variables through standardization and individualization, as well as a scheme to encourage the voluntary participation of public libraries in the evaluation.
