Libraries are founded to ensure the intellectual freedom of citizens, and citizens have the right to confidentiality regarding their needs, information access, and information use. Protecting users' privacy is critical to safeguarding their freedom of speech, freedom of thought, and freedom of assembly. Libraries and librarians should seriously concern themselves with their users' privacy because protecting this privacy is part of their most important mission, and, in doing so, users can truly enjoy their intellectual freedom. This study extensively investigated and analyzed the possibility of privacy invasion that may occur in libraries. As a result, cases of potential invasion of privacy in libraries were summarized in the following three categories: violations occurring in the process of national or law agencies' enforcement operations; violations occurring in the process of routine library services such as circulation, reference, online searching etc.; and violations occurring by outsourcing library services.

The purpose of this article is to explore the strength of user's right in service delivery process, and focuses on two areas. First one is to discuss the necessity which the process of service delivery will be changed from supplier-oriented system to user-oriented one, in order to strengthen user's right, especially in terms of choice and control. It can be facilitated by the abolishing of classification of disability. Second one is to introduce direct payments which money is directly given to user, instead of being given to supplier. This article also stresses that there is possibility of setting up direct payments because voucher system, a precursor of direct payments, is widely settled down for social service area in Korea.

Under these circumstances, culture and arts institutions are seeking to contribute to the expansion of the people's participation by providing timely and useful information and programs with high interest. Accordingly, this study intends to propose customized information services by analyzing the user's needs for information on public institutions in culture and arts and reflecting on the information disclosure service. For this purpose, three public institutions of in the culture and arts will be selected as representative examples to collect and cross-analyze the list of disclosed information received by users over a year.

This paper critically investigates the cultural phenomenon surrounding the news mobile phone app in which 'curation', relying on the news editing and adaption, has become much more significant than making the news directly. This study affirms the fact that a copying culture which is basically a combinative effect of duplication (alias) and imitation(mimesis) enables us enrich the human beings' creative activities. However, we need to warn the regressive aspects of copying culture challenging the journalistic principles. This study exemplifies a case of Pikicast, which has become the most rapid growing news content mobile app in Korea. By doing a case study, this paper suggests that 'social gift' should be given to the online users as a whole. The communal and social gift would be an alternative way to the unpaid crawling of the news resources from the digital commons by the news content curating corporation such as Pikicast.

The purpose of this study is to examine the job characteristics of care workers in elderly care voucher service emphasizing a social service quality management approach. The study sample was composed of randomly-selected 233 centers which dispatched care staffs to clients' home. Descriptive analyses were performed for examining the unique aspects of relationship-based labor of care staffs, and logistic regression analyses were performed for investigating the association between service quality structure and human right violation against staffs. As the first empirical study focusing on staff-side service quality factors, this study found out that human right violation against staffs was mainly influenced by record-keeping and document management capacity of center, risk protection under insurance, compliance of standard contract procedure, and regular supervision. These results suggest particular policy attention should be given to basic protection for and set-up of core activity boundaries of care workers as well as clients-centered rights both for preventing human right violation and improving overall social service quality.

The purpose of this study is to find out implications which can be useful for enhancement of user participation in Korean disability services from UK community care experience. In Korea, until recently dominant issue on social services always has been the shortage of service provision. But during the recent 20 years, we experienced great expansion in quantity, as though it may be not yet enough. And more recently, disabled people and organizations began to actively argue for appropriate service in quantity and quality. Now, Korean disability policy and practice are confronted to the difficult and embarrassing task how to meet the need of disabled people with limited resources, and how to response to the disabled people's voice arguing on independence and choice. This task would require somewhat deliberate reform which might be quite different from previous one. UK's experience of implementation and development of community care system would give meaningful implications to Korean disability service policy and practice related to user participation. The results of the review on user participation issues in the UK community care give several implications to Korean disability services. Above all, consumerist approach which is the key strategy adopted by UK community care change is not appropriate for Korean disability service because of largely different service environment. The second implication is about decentralization. To enable decentralization of social service leads to enhancement of user involvement avoiding a lowering of service quality, prerequisite conditions should be secured. A third is securing and making declaration on the disabled person's right to assessment and constructing public service system operated by case management process. Fourth, formalized complaints procedure should be established. Fifth, professional education which enables professionals to encourage participation of disabled people should be developed, and the role of disability movement leading disabled users to participate on their services also should be highlighted.

우리나라는 세계 최고 수준의 IT 인프라를 기반으로 네트워크 및 서비스 융합, RFID 등 u-IT 서비스 확산 등을 통해 유비쿼터스 사회로 빠르게 진입하고 있다. 향후 디지털 융합이 가속화됨에 따라 시간과 공간의 제약 없이 원하는 정보의 획득 활용이 증가하고, u-Health, u-learning 등 IT가 타산업과 융합되면서 높은 부가가치를 창출할 것으로 전망 된다. 그러나 정보화의 급속한 진전에 따른 사회 전반의 편의성과 효율성이 향상하였으나, 해킹 바이러스, 개인정보 유출사고, 스팸 등 역기능으로 인한 피해도 확산되고 있다. 최근에는 네트워크 방어체계를 무력화시키는 지능화된 해킹, 대량의 고객정보 유출, 사회공학 기법을 활용한 피싱 등 이용자의 자산과 프라이버시를 침해하는 사이버범죄 증가 등으로 이용자자산과 권리 보호관점에서의 정보보호의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 향후 시간과 장소에 상관없이 지식정보를 활용하여 편리하고 쾌적한 생활을 누리게 하는 지식정보사회는 예측 불가능한 위험이 곳곳에 산재한 정보위험사회로의 진입을 의미 할 수도 있다. 그러므로 미래사회에서 예상되는 위협을 예측하여 효과적으로 사전에 예방할 수 있는 체계를 마련하는 것은 안전하고 신뢰할 수 있는 지식정보사회를 향유하기 위한 전제조건으로 작용한다. 이에 본고에서는 미래 지식정보사회에 대비한 정보보호 전략으로 안전한 u-사회 청사진 설계 및 환경조성 선도와 국제화, 사이버위협 예방 및 대응체계의 입체적 조화와 융합, 정보보호 기술 제품 산업간 선순환 촉진과 성장 등 3대 전략을 설정하고 실행방안을 제시한다.
