This paper examines the ways in which small community library functions for foreign immigrants, analyzing on the case of multicultural library located in Wongok-dong, Ansan-si, where about 80% population of residents are foreign immigrants. Ansan multicultural library has two functions in the community. One is the educational place for helping immigrants' settlement and adaptation of South Korea.

For the efficient management of church documentary for religious reasons, including their historical and cultural values, the church archives should be excellently managed. However, the lack of understanding and consideration of the church records and archives makes it very difficult to have an actual grasp of its status and practical supports, such as budget and personnel, for records management. In this study, literature reviews and current status of domestic Protestant church archives, user survey of Saemoonan Presbyterian church and interviews of church archives records officer were carried out. Based on the results of the study, three parts of the proposed plan of the Saemoonan Presbyterian Archives were suggested. Education, exhibition, publication, and promotion of the church's archival services will help redirect the roles and values of the archives, which will make it an essential part of the church.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the cases of cooperation between school libraries and public libraries in order to reinforce their cooperation, and to prepare the base for development of school libraries. Data is collected through five workshops which attended school librarians, public librarians, and the peoples in the several regional offices of education. The results show three models of school and public library cooperation. School library - public library cooperation model is suited for metropolitan area where school library and public library are developed. Public library support model is suited for mid-size cities where school libraries are undeveloped. School library and public library integration model is suited for small towns where both school libraries and public libraries are undeveloped. These models, however, should be revised through testing several libraries and different situations.

This study investigated the administrative history, from the introduction of the "Standard of Government Function Classification" (BRM) to its development and application. Through the results of the survey, the causes of the problems observed in the current government's functional classification system were revealed. The current survey examined the functional classification scheme of the central government and local governments on the "cultural heritage" policy area (9 major functions, 59 middle functions, 297 small functions, and 1,287 unit tasks). It confirmed the problem of the separation of functions between central and local governments as well as other problems. Among the problems, this study proposed an improvement model through four representative cases such as the "designation of cultural heritage." In order to reorganize the "Standard of Government Function Classification," it is necessary to design a business function with the reproduction of tasks, establish a system for management and operation in order to maintain the consistency of the business function, educate users, and suggest continuous improvement.

To grasp the current status of smart campus and look for future directions, this study investigated the usage rate and perceived usefulness of digital devices and services by conducting online survey of 580 university students. The main results are as follows. First, smartphones have the highest ownership rate, followed by laptops, desktops, and digital cameras. Purchase intention of virtual reality devices is highest followed by smart watches/bands, and tablets. Second, mobilization in campus life is almost realized, however the usage of desktops is still high in education and administration context. Digital devices have been perceived particularly useful when searching and sharing information. Third, students use digital services such as search engines, messengers, and online libraries in their learning, and they use messengers, music and video services in their lives. Service usage rate and perceived usefulness are not proportional.

The purpose of this paper is to better understand the socio-economic differentials of Internet access and use. Data from '2008 Korean Internet usage behavior' were used to conduct logistic regression analysis. The findings show that there are significant socio-economic(age, gender, educational attainment, employment situation, and Internet access type) disparity in Internet access(Internet access at home, broadband Internet access). Also socio-economic variables enter in as statistically significant in most specifications for Internet use intensity (Intensive internet use, frequent internet use, less frequent internet use). The gender, household income and education attainment explanations for large differential in Internet use intensity are generally very similar. It is shown that age, education attainment and household income level cause a large digital divide on Internet service use(information use, communication and community use, e-commerce use, Internet banking use).

Cataloging principles, cataloging rules, and encoding formats should considered LRM acceptance because LRM replaced FRBR as the conceptual model. This study identifies considerations for BIBFRAME acceptance of expression and representative expression attributes in LRM by using literature reviews and expert interviews. Primarily, work in BIBFRAME without expression as entity could map to work and expression of LRM and sustain expression by linking 2 works (work and expression). Second, BIBFRAME must consider association between representative expression attributes and specific expressions whose values can be transferred to the representative expression attributes. Third, representative expression attributes are different according to work types in LRM, and language, media, intended audience, and scale, that can be used as representative expression attributes in BIBFRAME, should be changed in class. Fourth, relation properties should be articulated for expanding networks between expressions originated from work in BIBFRAME. This study analyzes LRM and BIBFRAME by focusing on expression entity and representative expression attributes. More LRM study is needed on cataloging principles and cataloging rules.

Based on this study, the research trends were identified for the field of public libraries in Korea by utilizing the keyword network analysis. For 20 years from 2003 to 2022, a total of 752 papers related to the public libraries published in the four largest academic journals in the field of library and information science in Korea were analyzed. The research results are as follows. First, from 2003 to 2022, an annual average of 37.6 papers were published, demonstrating a pattern of repeated rise and fall. Second, the keywords of 'service' and 'culture' were identified as the most discussed keywords as they were found to be among the top five in terms of the frequency of occurrence, connection centrality, and the mediation centrality analysis results. Third, in terms of the results of analyzing the co-occurrence frequency of keyword pairs, attention was paid to the keyword pairs of education-program, service-user, service-children, and service-disability.
