The main purpose of this study was to identify the topics and research trends of international cadastral research using LDA. To achieve this goal, I reviewed the literature on LDA and international cadastral study and formulated four research questions that are topics of cadastral researchers, distribution of topics, the most influential topics and changes of topics over time. To answer these research questions, I analyzed 370 papers published in the FIG Peer Review Journal between January 1, 2008, and October 31, 2017, using LDA. As a result of the analysis, I confirmed that there are twelve major topics in international cadastral research. And the most influential topic of these topics was identified as topic 2(cadastral information systems), and topic 5(land development and land administration) was also confirmed as playing an important role in the overall document. These two topics have been the most popular topics whose trendlines have been very active over the past decade and will play a leading role in future cadastral research.

This study investigated the current state of online subject guides in Korean academic libraries and suggests improvement. Through the examination of 100 academic libraries' Web sites, only 14 online subject guides were identified, showing that the development of online subjects guides in Korea is still in infancy. The examined online subject guides were evaluated as high quality in terms of accessibility, integration of information resources, and format consistency, but low quality in the provision of specialized subjects, user instruction, and information retrieval systems. An online subject guide should be a one-stop service that provides fast access to information resources along with subject-specialized user instruction and effective communication with librarians.

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.

This study is a broad examination researchon LIS students' perception about public library's subject special services and subject special librarian. Students majoring in Library and Information Science as respondents, it examined the recognition level of subject special services and subject special librarian, cognition level of necessity, competencies of subject special librarians and students and opinions on special status system of subject psecial librarians. Main factors shown in the results include the the level of students' understanding and necessity of subject special services and subject special librarian, students' willingness to work as a subject special librarian, the willingness to put additional effort into equip themselves with competencies as subject special librarians. There were respondents who have equipped competencies as subject special librarians through courses provided by the department of Library and Information Science and school curriculum but have not done anything further. Respondents responded that there is a need to systematize special status system of subject special librarian and that subject specialty is important in implementing subject special services but that there is a lack of subject specialty. Based on the research results, this study suggests that there is a need to put more emphasis on developing curriculum that can help overcoming difficulties faced by students majoring in Information Sciecne and help them become competent subject special librarians.
