This study is a preliminary study to suggest an idea for the establishment of the Korean standard authority database system for Korean libraries. It analyzes in detail the current status of the mjor libraries in Korea operating authority system Because the authority work is very hard for a library to accomplish for its costs and efforts needed, it is desirable to establish and maintain the system through cooperative venture. It also investigates the problems to be followed and suggests the possible improvements for the system.

본 연구에서는 웹 환경에 적합한 서지 기술을 위해 LC에서 개발한 BIBFRAME을 분석하고, BIBFRAME이 개방형 서지 데이터의 생성에 적합한지를 검토하였다. 그리고 BIBFRAME의 등장 배경 및 특징을 FRBR 모형과 비교하였다. 그 결과 BIBRAME은 1)서지 객체의 지적 내용과 물리 매체를 구분하고 있었는데, FRBR의 제1그룹보다 단순한 구조를 지니고 있었다. 2) 인명전거와 주제전거를 포함하는 넓은 개념으로 전거를 정의하고 있었으며, 서지데이터 작성자의 관점과 이용자의 관점을 함께 고려하였다. 3) 다양한 외부 데이터와의 연계 및 개별 도서관에 특화된 데이터를 추가할 수 있는 주석 개념을 도입하였다. BIBFRAME은 MARC 레코드에서 변환하거나 직접적으로 서지데이터를 작성하는 방안이 모두 가능하며, 웹 환경에 적합하다고 판단된다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the issues resulted from the process of grouping KORMARC records using FRBR WORK concept and to suggest a new method. The previous studies did not sufficiently address the criteria or processes for identifying representative authors of records and their derivatives. Therefore, our study focused on devising a method of identifying the representative author when there are multiple contributors in a work. The study developed a method of identifying representative authors using an author role dictionary constructed by extracting role-terms from the statement of responsibility field (245). We also designed another way to group records as a work by calculating similarity measures of authors and titles. The accuracy rate of WORK grouping was the highest when blank spaces, parentheses, and controling processes were removed from titles and the measured similarity rates of authors and titles were higher than 80 percent. This was an experiment study where we developed an author-role dictionary that can be utilized in selecting a representative author and measured the similarity rate of authors and titles in order to achieve effective WORK grouping of KORMARC records. The future study will attempt to devise a way to improve the similarity measure of titles, incorporate FRBR Group 1 entities such as expression, manifestation and item data into the algorithm, and a method of improving the algorithm by utilizing other forms of MARC data that are widely used in Korea.

The purpose of this study is to examine the perception of RDA by university library librarians and the level of perception of emotions, familiarity, understanding, introduction, obstacles, and education, and to secure basic data to improve awareness. The data needed for the study were obtained through a survey of 76 librarians in 4-year university libraries. As a result of the survey, 67.1% of librarians had listened to RDA, and school classes were the highest at 51.0% of cognitive means. Second, librarians perceived that they were more positive emotions than negative emotions about RDA, and that they were not familiar with RDA-related principles or concepts. In particular, it was recognized that the RDA itself and FRAD were not more familiar. The librarian recognized that they understood RDA-related principles or concepts at a normal level, and in particular, recognized that they did not further understand the authority and encoding. Third, librarians recognized the introduction of RDA at a slightly higher level than usual, but among the questions, 'RDA replaces AACR2' was recognized at a normal level. The librarian recognized the obstacles to the introduction of RDA at a higher level than usual, and in particular, the lack of education related to RDA was highly recognized. Fourth, librarians recognized the need for RDA-related education at a high level, especially the use of RDA Toolkit, changes in RDA records, differences between RDA and AACR2, and the need for RDA and MARC21-related education. In this study, based on the research results, a plan to improve librarian awareness of RDA was proposed.

This study aims to present a revised draft of KORMARC bibliographic format that was first revised in 2014. To this end, data collection and analysis methods are as follows. First, the opinions of cataloging working groups for revision of KORMARC including the National Library of Korea (NLK) and KERIS were collected and analyzed. Second, work guidelines used in libraries or cooperative catalog systems were analyzed. Third, by comparing MARC21 update No.32 (June 2021) with the KORMARC bibliographic format, elements that need to be reflected in the KORMARC revision were derived. Finally, issues that have been raised in previous studies or that require further discussion were examined. Based on these analysis results, an outlines of the extension and deletion of KORMARC fields, subfields, and indicators, and supplementation of application guidelines and examples were derived. The final revision directions were finalized after collecting expert opinions, the working group reviews, and comprehensive opinions from the library community.
