Background: Clinical Pharmacy Practice Experience (CPPE) is an important curriculum that offers students patient-centered disease prevention and treatment with evidence-based optimal pharmacotherapy for better clinical outcomes. However, few studies have evaluated the perception of pharmacy students regarding CPPE in tertiary and secondary hospitals. This study aimed to evaluate the perception of pharmacy students regarding the learning program of CPPE. Methods: The survey questionnaire consisted of 15 self-administered questions regarding pharmacy practices, barriers, and improvement of practical training. Fourteen institutional pharmacies located in seven regions responded to a survey questionnaire from March 1 to June 30, 2017. The participants were pharmacy students doing clerkship in a hospital setting. Results: The response rate was 73.6%. Thirty-five participants (22.4%) had used a hospital library, but 121 (77.6%) had never used the library for drug information resources. Eighty-one (50.0%) responded that clinical knowledge and drug information was the most beneficial practice. Thirty-seven (31.1%) respondents in the tertiary hospitals and 19 (46.3%) in the secondary hospitals answered that they were filling prescriptions during the daily break. On the other hand, 72 respondents (60.5%) in the tertiary hospitals and 17 (41.5%) in the secondary hospitals did literature research to prepare for presentation. Conclusion: More students in secondary hospitals continue to fill prescriptions during the daily break, as compared to those in tertiary hospitals. Therefore, the authors suggest self-directed learning to improve clinical performance and each institution considers offering onsite or online library service to improve evidence-based CPPE for pharmacy school students.

The purpose of this study is to identify contradictions in library internship, and address them. As a case study, students who were enrolled in the internship class opened in the 2016 fall semester in a university in Seoul were interviewed. Through applying Activity Theory, the process of internship and contradictions presented in its process were analyzed. The findings indicate that students were satisfied with their internship experience. The internship experience also makes positive impacts on students in terms of understanding the library and information science and deciding their future career as a librarian. Such contradictions as internship duration, operation of the internship process, level of participation or practice, and overlap of part-time experience in a library were identified. This study suggests to make the internship systematic in order to address the contradictions through that all parties in internship are actively participated in internship and that they share information related with the internship.

To investigate how the online searching was taught in the departments of Library and Information Science, a survey was done to the professors teaching information retrieval course. Questionnaires were mailed to 32 professors and 26 returned. Information retrieval course, one of the central course attended by almost all of the students, covers online searching in depth. Lecture, hard-on practice, and homework were three favored methods of teaching. Among the 22 topics to be covered in online teaching, respondents showed substantially higher consensus except for sections of information technology and service management. However, respondents showed big differences in hours of hand-on practice and the systems used. Free databases through Internet used dominantly. The chronic problem of terminal and communication is solved by using campus-wide facilities. But the problem of teaching assistance is serious. Based on the results, recommendations to improve online searching education are provided.

The study is to prove the necessity of librarian as the coordinator for the building and sustenance of "Community of Practice" in public libraries. Therefore, The study reviews literatures and conducts a survey how librarians think of their work from the perspective of CoP. The results of this study are as follows: "Community of Practice(CoP)" is the kind of community composed of "Domain", "Community" and "Practice" for knowledge circulation; The coordinator neither leader in CoP nor manager outside of CoP is necessary to sustain CoP by supporting management of CoP and promoting knowledge sharing; The programs and clubs designed by public librarians are potential CoPs; The potential CoPs turn into the sustainable CoPs when the participants of programs turn into the directors of programs; It means the coordinator of CoP is librarian in case of public libraries.

In order for school library to fully serve as a key educational element of a school, teachers' positive perception on the library's role is essential. Due to the lack of the perception, however, school libraries are not closely related to class activities in practice. Since teachers' perception on school library has been regarded as an given environmental factor in the field of school libraries, alternatives for revitalizing school libraries proposed in previous studies were not effective in practice. We developed a hypothesis that activities in school libraries have a certain impact on the teachers' perception, and tested the hypothesis and identified library factors to the perception in this study. Through a series of statistical analyses with the data from a questionnaire survey with teachers in elementary schools, we identified that the teachers perceived the library as non-curricular element, their perceptions were affected by the library. Consequently, the school library can influence the teachers' perveption. This study has implications to explore practical alternatives to improve the teachers' perception on school libraries by activities in school libraries.
