  • This study is to suggest the revitalization plan of military libraries, on the basis of analysis for the military library status and the results of a survey and interview with soldiers and working staff in the military libraries. To this end, first, it analyzes study trends in the operation and revitalization plan of the military libraries based on the preceding research analysis and investigates and analyzes the operation of the military libraries. Second, it identifies problems in the operation of the military libraries by comparing and analyzing between the operation of domestic military libraries and the best cases as well as the operation situation of the overseas military libraries. Third, it suggests the revitalization plan by holistically analyzing the situation and the best cases of the military libraries while finding out the problems through interviews and questionnaires. According to the analysis, first, it is necessary to expand the number of exclusive personnel with librarian qualifications and prepare standards for the placement of librarians. Second, it is necessary to develop online education to provide regular operation education for the personnel of the military libraries. Third, it is necessary to develop common manuals for working staff. Fourth, it is necessary to prepare the plan to expand the preference books of soldiers to increase reading and usage rate of the military libraries. Fifth, it is necessary to construct library space in the form of a book cafe for soldiers' knowledge development and relaxation and to locate the library in a highly accessible place. Lastly, it needs to develop the application of the military library and should lead to high interest in libraries by letting soldiers read books and post book reviews on it after work.

  • In this study, we attempted to propose operational directions for each space in order to transform the newly built library in Yangpyeong-gun into a space for cultural enjoyment and creativity development for local residents. To this end, the purpose is to understand the space composition status of Yangpyeong-gun public libraries and establish an operation plan (draft) for the space to be constructed. To this end, we analyzed the names, operation status, and cases of similar spaces in other libraries, and analyzed the spatial characteristics of library cases to establish a space operation plan for the Yangpyeong-gun public library. As a result of the study, it is important to utilize spaces such as children's resource rooms to improve early reading habits for infants and children, contribute to development, and develop various senses, and small theaters should be planned with a focus on large-scale performances. Furniture and space for reading and relaxation should be provided next to Byeokmyeonga & Bookstair, and it should be operated as a communication space where small talk is possible within a certain limit. It is necessary to operate the multipurpose room by activating experiential creative activities and creative performances. It is necessary for the club room to establish an operation plan through regular communication and opinion sharing. The maker space space is a space that supports various creative activities, and the general data room is a place that provides materials on all topics and must be operated by regularly communicating with users and reflecting their opinions. Lastly, I would like to suggest that the family room should be used like a book cafe where children and parents can freely drink tea together in the same space.
