Currently, it is not easy for most domestic public libraries to collect and provide reliable health information services on their own. Health information is distributed or professional, making it inconvenient for users to use. Based on the implications derived from the case study, the Library Health Information Integration Service Model was proposed as a specialized information service. The model consists of a composition shared by librarians, health and medical experts, and users, focusing on library websites that provide integrated health information integration services, and has the following features. First, it provides health and medical information on a specialized subject. Second, it provides integrated health and medical information services provided in various ways. Third, librarians and health and medical experts work together to provide information services. Fourth, users can freely use health information integration services online and offline. The model presented in this study means that libraries can play a leading role in health information integration services to increase the utilization rate of public libraries and further contribute to librarians serving as experts in health information services.

While ubiquitous healthcare (u-health) services were expected to propagate along with conventional healthcare services, recent progress indicated rather limited market acceptance. In this paper, we investigated the fundamental causes of why the consumer acceptance level of u-health services has been low. We draw upon innovation adoption theories to analyze the consumer readiness of the typical u-health services. The comparative analysis between innovative u-health services and conventional services was performed using analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Subsequently, policy and business implications including technological breakthrough insights were discussed based on the customer perspective comparative adoption analysis. The propositions captured through this study provide useful insight to further studies on u-health services.

Services, despite the difficulty of its exact definition, can be defined as deeds, efforts, or performances by economical bodies, attributing to four unique characteristics - intangibility, inseparability, heterogeneity, and perishability. This study aims to research the global competition and problems of the local professional services, especially educational services and health services, and to suggest some devices for increasing the exportation of both educational services and health services. Educational services and health services were reserved in the multilateral negotiation to open the WTO parties' markets because of its national public benefits. But it is indispensable to open our local market by the bilateral FTA negotiation. Legal restrictions, therefore, related to both education and health should be erased according to the basic rule of the market competition, and it is advisable to control the national public benefit of these services by enacting the different legal systems. For recovering from minus balance of payment in the educational services or health services, furthermore, it is necessary to drive rather some offensive exporting policies than the defensive policy against supply from the foreign countries. In conclusion, the korean Foreign Trade Act and other relative acts should be revised, and both educational services and health services should be contained within the definition of "the international trade" for the governmental benefits of supporting the services exportation.

본 연구는 소비자 보건정보서비스의 이론적 배경과 국내외의 이에 대한 현황을 문헌적으로 고찰하고 국내 병원도서관과 공공도서관에서의 소비자 보건정보서비스 제공실태를 알아보고 이에 따른 소비자의 보건정보요구에 대한 도서관의 역할을 제고하여, 그 요구에 대응하도록 도서관 봉사를 활성화하기 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 이에 다음과 같이 소비자보건정보서비스를 활성화하기 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 첫째, 현재 병원도서관과 공공도서관 사서들은 소비자 보건정보서비스가 필요하다고 인식을 하고 있으며, 소비자 보건정보서비스를 실시하게 될 경우에는 소비자의 예방적인 보건의료와 환자의 알 권리 존중이라는 영역까지 도서관의 기능화대를 가져다 줄 수 있을 것이다. 둘째, 병원도서관내에 환자도서관 설치를 하여 적극적으로 소비자 보건정보서비스를 실시해 나가야하며 병원도서관이 환자 및 가족을 위한 의학정보를 제공하기 위해서는 이를 위한 소비자용 보건정보자료의 적극적인 수집과 이에 대한 서지류도 같이 개발해야 할 것이다. 공공도서관도 적극적으로 보건정보자료를 수집하고 유지관리하며 참고실에 별도의 장서를 구축해야 한다 셋째, MEDLIS(Medical Library Information System)의 subsystem으로 미국의 CHIN이나 CHIPS와 같은 협력망을 구축하고 소비자용 보건정보자료의 종합목록데이터베이스 제작과 상호대차시스템, 참고봉사 시스템의 구축으로 병원도서관과 공공도서관의 협력망을 구성한다.

As people get broader access to health information through the internet, there is a greater need for measure to maximize the social advantages of the internet and to minimize negative side-effects. With this concern, this paper classifies internet health information services sites into : on-line supply of health information, on-line consultation, on-line diagnosis, and on-line sales. As well this paper analyzes domestic laws supporting and/or regulating these services. The efficient provision of internet health services requires comprehensive laws on individual privacy protection, prevention and handling of medical accidents, an electronic prescription form for internet diagnosis, electronic signing, payment for medical expenses, qualifications for internet medical practitioners. Additional laws are required to establish internet pharmacies and internet health goods stores. These new laws can be prepared either separately or through revision of existing laws governing medical practice, pharmacies, and public health promotion. However, as the legal control by the government on cyber processes and entities has a fairly minimal effect, consumers should be encouraged to improve their own capacity for wisely using internet health services and health-service providers should be encouraged to promote voluntary supervision and control of their own services and practices.

Considering the need for quality health information and resultant health care services in any society, this study was carried out to look into the status of library and information resources and services provided by medical libraries in Enugu State, Nigeria. The main objective of the study was to find out the information resources and services available for medical library users towards quality health care provision. Five (5) medical libraries of major teaching hospitals were used for the study with 980 registered users as the study population from where 245 users were sampled. Observation checklist was used to collect data on resources while questionnaire was used to collect data from the respondents on the services provided. The Medical Library Association Standard guided the analysis of data from observation while frequency counts and mean scores were used to analyze data from the questionnaire. Major findings showed that even though some of the required resources and services are available and provided the medical libraries, most of the required resources and services are not adequately provided by these libraries.

인터넷사용량의 증가, 건강한 삶에 대한 관심이 증가함에 따라, 공공도서관에서의 소비자건강정보(Consumer Health Information: CHI) 요구가 증가하고 있다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 국내의 경우 공공도서관에서 제공할 수 있는 CHI 서비스에 대한 연구는 미비하다. 본 연구에서는 CHI와 관련한 공공도서관의 역할, 공공도서관 사서(소비자건강사서)의 역할, 그리고 공공도서관에서 제공하는 CHI 서비스 내용 등을 규명하고자 문헌분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서 도출된 공공도서관에서 제공해야 할 서비스로는 1) CHI 장서 및 정보원 개발, 2) CHI 참고서비스, 3) CHI 이용자 교육, 4) CHI 취약 계층에 대한 서비스, 5) CHI 아웃 리치 프로그램 개발, 6) CHI 협력체계구축 등이며, 각각의 서비스 개발에 대한 현황과 관련 사례를 제시했다. 비록 본 연구에서는 미국 및 국외 나라들의 서비스를 위주로 조사했지만, 연구 결과는 국내 공공도서관의 CHI 서비스 제공의 중요성을 강조하고, 실제 서비스를 개발하는 중요한 가이드라인이 될 수 있을 것이다.

The purpose of menu labeling is to offer eating environments with improved healthy food selection. Similar to U.S. policies, the Korea government enforces the Special Act on Children's Food Safety and Nutrition for provision of nutritional labeling in chain restaurants. Considering the importance of dining services for college students and their interests in health, this study examined college students' perception toward nutrition information provided by university dining services. A survey was conducted for university students. Students' recognition of nutrition information for university dining services was lower than recognition of nutrition information for commercial food services. The most common reason cited by students for considering nutrition information of university dining services was customer rights, followed by health maintenance. Students showed a high tendency to use nutrition information of university dining services. College students' motivation for knowing nutrition information of university dining services included health and value interests. Students' knowledge of nutrition had a positive effect on their intention to know nutrition information. The findings of this study offer university administrators and contract food service management companies directions for developing menu labeling for university dining services.
