This study purposed to develop and propose the curriculum content of te LIS core courses for raising professional librarians in the information society. To this end, we investigated and analyzed syllabi of LIS core courses which opened in 39 Department of Library & Information Science in Korea, and also analyzed the job analysis data which is developed by library types. As a result, syllabi of the core course for Introduction to Library and Information Science, Information Organization, Information Services, Library Management, Information Retrieval, and Library Field Studies has been developed. The syllabi included teaching methods, evaluation methods, the main textbook, and 15-week or 16-week lecture schedule and content and so on.

This is a critical study on the information-offer-function of Korean public library among its several functions. This is not only reviewed about idealogical logical background of formulation of public library in Korea, but also reviewed about changing process o the goal of public library till the development of actual concept of modern public library. This study suggested a proper definition about actual goal of public library in Korea at present. Technocrats say the public library in the future should be both bookless and paperless library. That may mean over-interpretation on information-offer-function of public library among its several functions. When we meet information super highway era, we must not confront information dependence to advanced information countries. Thus, I suggest a way to solve the establishment of information sovereignty through public library in order to avoid the information dependence to advanced information countries.

This study aimed to discuss the utilization of a makerspace regarding 3D printers in a children's library by conducting co-design sessions targeting the end-users, children. To achieve this, a program utilizing a 3D printer was conducted for seven children at the Seoul Children's Library, followed by interviews with both the children and their parents. The results revealed several key findings: First, during the design sessions, participating children showed interest in the physical realization of ideas through the use of a 3D printer. Researchers adjusted their level of intervention based on each child's tendency, playing a supportive role. Second, children became aware of various limitations associated with 3D printers and public library makerspace. Third, the rapport between children and researchers positively influenced the design sessions, driven by the active communication of children. This study suggests a reevaluation of the value and necessity of library makerspace from the perspective of user autonomy and creativity and emphasizes the need to closely understand the end user's requirements in establishing operational strategies for library makerspace.

This paper traces the trends of librarianship and the changes in the education for librarianship during the 1950s through the 1990s. The purpose of tracing is to find out whether there were some relationships between library activities and education for librarianship, which are supposed to be closely linked and cannot be discussed separately. The historical development of the field and the changes of information technology and library education in the United States of America during the same period are described to show how library and information science field has changed and how American library schools, whose system of library education was introduced into this country, have adopted new technologies. The results of the research show that, even in part, there were such relationship between libraries and library education as libraries' interests in library automation and library schools' provision of library automation course. It was also found out that the Korean library schools tended to follow the curricula provided by their American counterparts. Based on the findings, some suggestions are provided.

The purpose of this study is to analyze quantitatively the use of statistics, especially inferential statistics, in library and information science. Thus this study compared the use of statistics in library and information science with it in social work and education. The results of this study are as follows: First, the result is that, when the proportions of articles in each of the three categories of use are compared, library and information science is deficient in the use of inferential statistics and unusually productive of articles in 'No Statistics' category and 'Descriptive Statistics Only' category. Second, ANOVA showed no significant difference in the means for number of articles with no statistics and for articles with descriptive statistics only, but did show a statistically significant difference for the means for number of articles with inferential statistics. That is, the use of inferential statistics in library and information science was very less than the other subject areas. Third, a comparison of the numbers of various inferential statistics for each of the three subject areas indicated that the differences were not significant. This fact means that the quality of inferential statistics used in library and information science was similar to the other subjects.
