Purpose The purpose of the study is to identify the need of a mobile based library information and service delivery system in developing countries, identify the services that are possible to provide with the help of mobile phones and their applications, design a mobile based library information and service delivery system, and identify major challenges regarding mobile based library information and service delivery systems.Design/ Methodology/ Approach The research is exploratory in nature. This paper is based on a review of literature, survey information, and on the author’s own viewpoints. A comprehensive search of scientific literature has been done along with a survey for validating the necessity of designing mobile based library information and service delivery systems. Responses to closed-ended questions in particular on 7-point Likert scales were analyzed using the descriptive analysis techniques of SPSS 20.0 and responses to other closed-ended questions were analyzed using general statistics.Findings The research indicates that users of academic libraries, especially students and faculty members, have a positive notion regarding designing and implementing a mobile based library information and service delivery system. It also reveals user opinions regarding the possible problems associated with the design and implementation of a mobile based library information and service delivery system.Originality The paper explores mobile based library information and service delivery systems for better and faster service provision to its potential users.

The goal of this study is to improve the competitiveness of professional librarians in society. To this end, we analyzed domestic and international LIS curriculum, determined demand from field librarians through a survey, carried out job analysis by library types, and developed an operating model for LIS curriculum by synthesizing all of these results. Finally, we suggested a course of study for civil service librarians based on this model. As a result, the six required courses for civil service librarians are: Introduction to Library and Information Science, Information Organization, Information Services (Reference and Information Services), Library Management, Information Retrieval, and Field Work. The four core courses for the civil service concentration are: Collection Development, Information Sources by Subjects, Public Library Management, and Digital Libraries. Suggested electives best suited to this career path include Using Web Resources, Information Literacy, Information Services in Culturally Diverse Communities, Library Marketing, Libraries and Cultural Programs, Reading Guidance, Library History, Small Library Management, Studies in Library Buildings, Library Cooperation, Managing Digital Collections, and Information and Communication in a Digital Age.

The library as a social agency must study and evaluate its effectiveness and seek to improve its service for achieving the external objectives for which it was created. The study is an attempt to define the determining factors involved in change in library service. Library service evolves as a consequence of social need, which comprises unconventional demands of emerging areas in the subject ratio of literature, change in methods of research, change in the educational level of the community, and change in the user behavior. Since the library is an agency of communication, growth and specialization of information, and increase in variety of information media have effects on library service. The library is one of the many communication agencies in society, and increase or decrease in their programs can be determining factors of change in library service. Today, libraries depend more and more upon interlibrary cooperation to allow them to overcome their limitation in resources and time, and they can bring about changes in their service by adjusting themselves to the interlibrary cooperation arrangements available. Finally, library service is rendered as a result of theorizing as to what the library might or should do, and naturally theories or change in them may be determining factors of library service.

장애인 정보서비스가 활발하지 못한 우리 나라 도서관 현실에서 정보기술의 활용은 그 동안 소외되었던 장애인의 정보요구를 충족시키고 오랫동안 누적되어온 장애인 정보서비스의 문제점을 해소시킬 수 있는 해결방안을 제공할 것이다. 본 연구는 시각장애인을 중심으로 우리 나라 도서관의 정보서비스 현황과 문제점, 정보기술을 활용한 시각장애인 정보서비스의 기술적 기반 및 그 활용사례 등을 고찰하여 우리 나라 시각장애인 정보서비스의 개선방안을 제시하였다.

In modern times, it has been a most imporant problem for the community to make nation's information resources a\-ailable to all the people ~vithf ree and even access. In Nelson Associate's National platz for library service appeared in 1948, 50 million Americans were served by public libraries with inadequate service and 35 million have had no library service. Library Services Act signed bq- President Eisenhower in 1956 was a result of continuous efforts of AL.1 for 20 years. It aimed to extend public library service to rural population less than ten thousands. LSA was succeeded by LSCA in 1964 and continued with several amendments so far. 620 million dollars of Federal funds were put into local library administrati1.e agencies during 1957-1974 for the extension of library service and construction of library buildings. Federal funds also encouraged local library administrative agencies to ha\-e more interest in library and information service and carry out their own library programs. However, there are many current problems in Amierican pubic libraries still now, that is, uneven growth of public libraries, uneven distribution of information resources, inadequate library service to a large part of population, insufficient supply of library funds, lack of nationwide library network beyond local admini-strative jurisdictions and so on. National Advisory Commission on Libraries, Committee on Libraries, National Conference of Library and Inforination Science are results of government efforts to meet those problems and carry out effecti1.e nation's library policies. In other part, Congress authorized to open the White House Conference on Library and Information Science before 1978 to make a reco:nn:endation fostering the library use. It is expected that the elected President Carter will put more efforts in developing library and information services, for LSA and LSCA were mainly pushed ahead by Democratic Party. In conclusion I could find some factors through these analysis that would be of some help to develop nation's library and information services, especially in developing countries.

도서대출서비스는 도서관 자료를 관외로 빌려주는 것으로 도서관이 제공하는 가장 기본적이고 필수적인 서비스이다. 그러나 최근 경영마인드의 확산과 정보기술의 발전에 힘입어 도서관서비스의 패러다임이 이용자가 찾아오는 서비스에서 이용자를 찾아가는 서비스로 바뀌어가고, 도서관 간의 네트워크가 확대됨에 따라 도서대출서비스에도 많은 변화가 일어나고 있다. 그리고 개별 도서관은 도서대출서비스의 변화에 발맞추어 가용자원을 활용하여 특성화에 대응하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 논문은 은평구립도서관에서 시행되는 책단비 도서대출서비스에 관한 연구를 통하여 변화하는 도서대출서비스의 구체적인 내용을 '이용자 중심의 서비스', '네트워크의 확산', '특성화'라는 관점에서 조사 분석하여 그 의의를 찾아보고 도서대출서비스에 대한 이해를 높이고자 하였다.

국립디지털도서관(NDL)이 국가대표 디지털도서관으로서 본연의 기능을 수행하기 위해선 최신의 정보환경인 IT 및 유비쿼터스 환경을 고려한 정보서비스 정책이 수립되어야 한다. 본 연구는 전술한 필요성에 의거하여 포커스그룹 인터뷰와 이용자 및 사서를 대상으로 한 설문조사 분석을 통하여 NDL의 정보서비스 정책을 수립하였다. 또한, 수립된 정보서비스 정책의 타당성을 제고하기 위하여 국립중앙도서관 관계자들을 대상으로 한 중간 평가와 외부 전문가 및 자문단을 통한 1, 2차 검증을 통하여 최종적으로 NDL 정보서비스 정책의 비전, 사명 목적, 목표, 전략 등을 제시하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 제시된 NDL의 정보서비스 정책은 초유의 연구사례로서 향후, 정보서비스 정책을 수립하고 세부지침을 마련하고자 하는 다른 디지털도서관에게도 경험적 사실과 근거를 제시하여 줄 것이다.

본 연구는 상명대학교 도서관에서 실시하고 있는 학술정보 이용교육의 실태를 밝히고, 나아가 보다 합리적인 학술정보 이용교육 방안을 도출하기 위하여 피교육자의 인구사회적 특성과 제공받은 학술정보 이용교육방법에 따라 이들의 학술정보서비스 이용법에 대한 인지도에 차이가 있을 것이라는 가설을 설정하구 이를 검정하였다. 총 112부의 응답지를 SAS를 통하여 통계처리하고, 변인간의 관계를 알아보기 위하여 t-test와 ANOVA를 통하여 검정한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 학술정보 이용교육방법에 따른 피교육자들의 학술정보서비스 이용법에 대한 인지도에 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 외국학술잡지시스템, 관련 사이트, 학위논문, 전자자료 원문복사서비스 전자자료 외부이용, e-book, 번역서비스의 이용법에 대한 인지도에 있어 의미 있는 차이가 있었다. 둘째, 학술정보 이용교육방법 증에는 그룹별 교육이 가장 효과적이며, 반대로 온라인 교육은 효과적이지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 가장 합리적인 학술정보 이용교육 방안은 학부의 고학년 및 대학원생을 중심으로 한 오프라인 형태의 그룹별 교육이었다.

본고는 교도소에 수감된 수용자의 기본권을 보장하기 위한 방편으로서 교도소도서관의 설치와 수용자에 대한 법률정보봉사를 제시하고, 이러한 주장을 뒷받침하기 위하여 미국의 제도를 살펴보았다. 법률정보봉사가 정착되기까지의 과정에 대해 법원의 판례를 중심으로 하여 시대 구분하여 분석하고, 법률정보봉사를 하기 위한 기본 여건으로서 법률장서, 인적요소, 공간과 시설 및 이용시간에 대하여 고찰하였다.
