This paper discussed the factors that necessitated information networking, types of networks, benefits of information networking, library information networking and the University of Port 0Harcourt library network initiatives. Information networking is a process of communication, exchange of ideas, resource sharing and collaboration between individuals, organizations, institutions and libraries and it is facilitated by ICTs and the internet for improved accessibility. It has been brought about by information explosion, rapid advancement in information communication technologies, inadequate funding and increased demand for quality information. Networks can be classified into local, national, regional, and international networks and are formed to serve different categories of user communities. Benefits of information networking include resource sharing, on-line conferences and participation in programmes at distant centers, collaboration among scholars in different countries. Communication flow through the internet, social media, and electronic mail. Library information networking started with the interlibrary loan which has metamorphosed into library consortia in which groups of libraries partner to coordinate activities, share resources and combine expertise. The University of Port Harcourt Library network initiatives started with an e-granary (a CD ROM) and the establishment of a local area network. The library subscribes to more than 10 electronic databases. Information networking has greatly improved the sharing of resources in acquisition and dissemination of information resources since no single institution can acquire the overwhelming number of information resources in their various formats.

소셜 네트워크는 온라인상의 인맥 기반 친목 서비스로 잘 알려져 있지만, 광의의 소셜 네트워크는 타인과 협력하고 정보를 공유하는 작업을 통해 생성된 관계 또는 이를 기반으로 생성된 데이터를 통해 웹을 정보생태계로 진화시키는 메커니즘으로 해석할 수 있다. 소셜 네트워크는 친목 기반의 연결의 장에서 관심사 기반의 사회적 관계망으로 확대되고 있으며, 비즈니스 교육 등 다양한 영역에서 적용되고 있다. 도서관 서비스 영역에서도 수요자의 정보교류 네트워크 형성에 소셜 네트워크의 개념과 철학을 적용하기 위해 관심을 보이기 시작하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 소셜 네트워크의 개념과 의의를 살펴보고 도서관 영역에서 어떻게 해석되어 응용이 시작되고 있는지 살펴본다. 또한 도서관 정보 수요자의 소셜 네트워크 활성화를 위한 지원 방안을 제안해 본다.

The work presents the theoretical background and methodology to network analysis. This approach to information network has been widespread use in many researches of social science. Theoretically based idea of structural analysis of information flow were reviewed and the major perspective and the practical aspects of the analysis were discussed. To show an approach of the methodology to library environment, HISP project which analyzed the network structure of a health information dissemination to a health community was demonstrated.

The components, configurations and analysis on cost - effectiveness for a library network are studied. In discussing the effectiveness of network, it was divided into 1) the effectiveness of on-line system, 2) the economy in the cost of information processing and management, 3) the effectiveness caused by the increase of information users and 4) the effectiveness by circulation of library holdings.

This study explored issues related to the library in the COVID-19 era in YouTube videos in Korea. This study performed social network analysis and topic modeling analysis by collecting 479 YouTube videos, 20,545 words, and 8,379 channels related to COVID-19 and the library from 2019 to 2020. The study results confirmed that YouTube, a social media platform, was used as an important medium to connect users and physical libraries and provide/promote online library services. In the study, major topics and keywords such as quarantine, vlog, and library identity during the COVID-19 pandemic, library services and functions, and introductions and user guides of libraries were derived. Additionally, it was identified that videos about COVID-19 and the library are being produced by various actors (news and media channels, libraries, government agencies, librarians, and individual users). However, the study also identified that the actor network is fragmented through the channel network, showing a low density or weak linkage, and that the centrality of the library in the actor network is weak.

The rapidly growing at which information is produced and used in our complex society has presented us with major problems in information transfer. Resource sharing is almost universally accepted by librarians as the only realistic means for meeting future demands and no doubt the future will see continued growth in computer-based library networks for resource sharing. The resort to networking by many library and information institutions may be symptomatic of the difficulties they face in dealing with their rapidly changing environment. In this article, the library network is examined in relationship to resource sharing. Included is a discussion of the definitions of library network and other related terms, the main factors in the emergence of library network concept, the history of the concept of library networks, resource sharing through the library networks, the problems by which the development of networks is confronted, and prospects.

This study is a structural analysis of a multi-type and multi-level library network within the framework of a regional interlibrary loan (ILL) system. The study monitored to information network structure for resource sharing of academic and research library materials transmitted through the ILL. The local flow of academic and research information was measured by a survey of the filled ILL transactions by individual libraries in the Western 3Rs region. The major findings were as follows: 1) the regional ILL network showed less than half of participation of the total subject libraries, 2) existing structure surveyed was identified as a composite centralized network with three communication groups, 3) depending on the types of materials transacted, the structure were changed, 4) statewide and multi-state library cooperatives had direct interactions with some of the local libraries, 5) individual libraries participated in the ILL network more for periodicals than book materials, 6) academic libraries throughout the total six structure analyzed showed the highest percentage of participation.

Exploring research similarity of researchers offers insight on research communities and potential interactions among scholars. While co-authorship is a popular measure for studying research similarity of researchers, it cannot provide insight on authors who have not collaborated yet. In this work, we present novel approach to capture research similarity of authors using citation information. Extensive study is conducted on DATA & KNOWLEDGE ENGINEERING (DKE) publications to demonstrate and compare suggested approach with co-authorship based approach. Analysis result shows that proposed approach distinguishes author relationships that is not shown in co-authorship network.

오늘날 급속한 인쇄출판물의 증가에 따라 도서관계는 심각한 장서의 소장공간 부족문제를 겪고 있다. 문제해결방안 도출을 위해 먼저 해외 주요국의 자료공동보존 실태를 소개하구 국내사례로 국립중앙도서관의 자료보존관과 국립디지털 도서관의 자료보존서고 등을 살펴보았다. 또한 국립중앙도서관에서 발행한 "공공도서관협력망 운영실태 자료집 2005"를 기초로 하여 국내 공공도서관간 자료보존 협력 및 운영실태를 분석하였다. 이를 근거로 본고는 도서관계의 소장공간 부족문제 해결방안으로 현재 국립중앙도서관을 중앙관으로 하고 487개 공공도서관이 참여하는 $\lceil$공공도서관협력만$\rfloor$ 활용하여 공동보존도서관 및 국가보존도서관 설립방안을 제안하였다.

본 연구는 국내의 디지털도서관 연구 및 디지털도서관 용어 사용을 분석함으로써, 디지털도서관에 대한 논의가 기술중심적 혹은 기술결정론적 방향으로 진행되어 왔다는 것을 밝히고 있다. 그러나 디지털도서관은 다양한 이종의 구성요소들이 사회적 상호작용 과정을 통하여 구성되는 사회기술망으로 인식될 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 사회기술망으로서의 디지털도서관을 이해하고 분석하기 위하여 사회정보학과 STIN 모델이 적용되어야 한다는 것을 제안한다.
