This study was carried to analyze the current status of oral history collections of national libraries in foreign countries and to derive key factors to consider when building oral collections in National Library of Korea(NLK). The Library of Congress, the British Library, and the National Library of Australia regard oral records as a national heritage that should be passed down nationally and those have been utilized and preserved successfully. Based upon the analysis of the oral collections of these national libraries, several key elements - legislation, organization, collection policy, services, collection, education and collaboration, funding and sponsorship-to consider when building an oral history collection for the first time in the NLK were suggested.

The purposes of this study are to analyze the structure of the division and its operation related to bibliographic control in national libraries and to propose several ways to strengthen its functions of National Library of Korea based upon the analysis. Literature reviews were carried for the definitions and roles of national libraries and their bibliographic control. The divisions of bibliographic control in Library of Congress, British Library, National Diet Library of Japan, the Royal Library of Denmark, and National Library of Korea were analyzed. Three methods for strengthening bibliographic control in National Library of Korea were suggested as follows: first of all, need of establishment of independent bibliographic control center, secondly, high quality of bibliographic data and collaboration with related institutions, and third, strengthening of research in the future of bibliographic control.

1876년 Cutter의 개념을 계승한 AACR2R의 편목의 3수준은 오늘날과 같은 전자환경에서 유용하다. 본 연구에서는 편목의 다양한 수준에 관해 논의하였다. 최소수준목록(Minimal level Cataloging)은 영미에서 연구가 시작되어 미의회도서관과 OCLC에서 표준으로 제정하여 사용하고있으며, 핵심수준목록을 대표하는 PCC(Program for Cooperative Cataloging)의 핵심레코드(Core record) 표준은 최근들어 모든 수준의 도서관에서 사용이 증가되고 있다. 이에 인터넷자원의 표현을 위한 더블린코어와 PCC 핵심레코드의 데이터요소를 비교하여 공통데이터요소와 비공통데이터요소를 도출하여 인터넷환경에서 새로운 핵심수준 서지기술 데이터요소를 제안하는 기초자료로 삼고자 하였다.

Name Authority Control is useful not only to manage author information but also to gather other names of authors in order to provide access points in libraries and other institutes. The purpose of this study is to find problems through comparing and analyzing Literature Translation Institute of Korea Author Database, Korean name authority records of national libraries in the U. S., Japan and Korea. The results of the study are as follows. First, Literature Translation Institute of Korea Author Database missed some useful information about Korean writers in translated books in other countries. Second, the name authority file of Library of Congress and National Diet Library did not include the variant names, dates of authors' birth and death date, and filled out incorrect variant names with some birth and death dates. Third, English and Chinese character variants of Korean authors were not found in the National Library of Korea. To solve these problems, revisions of Korean author database, open access to National Library of Korea name authority file, and a strong participation of VIAF were suggested.

In this paper, the necessity calling for a paradigm shift in information organization is summarized: an attempt is being made to move from a web of documents to a web of data. In this, the principles used to make a universal library network, as part of the semantic web, or linked data, are described. Popular RDF vocabularies are also briefly introduced emphasizing FRBR and RDA vocabularies. Some library-related linked data projects are also summarized, describing the steps necessary to make a library catalogue available as linked data, as well as a rationale for doing so. Lastly, proposed models for a universal library network focusing on linked data are suggested. Some implications for the use of library applications for linked data, among others, are also presented.

This study intends to make a comprehensive inquiry into the quality of subject data in library catalogs. On the basis of National Library Subject Headings (NLSH) developed in 2002, National Library of Korea (NLK) has input the subject data into cataloging records since 2003. However a serious question could arise regarding whether the data are appropriate and desirable as a subject of the work. Under these circumstances, this study examined as follows: First, the meanings and attributes of the 'subject' were examined with a comprehensive literature survey. Second, a experimental analysis was carried out to measure the quality of the subject data. Sample records were selected from NLK, LC and A university library in Korea, and absolute and relative quality were compared. Finally, the substantial and realistic strategies for improving the quality of subject data were discussed.

The purpose of this study is to make a suggestion on the Korean cataloging rules (KCR) for personal name access points. KCR4 revised in 2003 has been criticized in the absence of related rules. To the end, this study investigates (1) the objectives and functions of personal name access points in the changing bibliographic universe, (2) the detailed rules for persons in RDA and new NCR, and (3) the cases of personal name access points in LC(Library of Congress), NDL(National Diet Library in Japan) authority records. (4) Based on theses, suggested are rules and examples for recording attributes and the authorized access points of persons in KCR to be revised. The data were collected from literature review, the case study, and the interviews with catalogers.
