Unlike the past, university libraries are able to provide specialized and differentiated information services due to the advent of information technology and telecommunication. Such services are essential not only to the primary users, such as professors and students in the universities, but also to the external users including corporations, researchers, and the general public. Now, university libraries as a means of resource sharing with communities should develop the services to play a role as a research and information center and expand such services to outside users who need the information services. Accordingly financial support is a necessity to provide the services, thereby fee-based information services are one of the devices for solving the financial burden and controlling outside users.

The use of artificial intelligence technology in the public sector has a positive impact on aspects such as improving public work efficiency and service quality, enhancing transparency and reliability, and contributing to the development of technology and industries. For these reasons, major countries including Korea are actively developing and using artificial intelligence in the public sector. However, artificial intelligence also presents issues such as bias, inequality, and infringement of individuals' right to self-determination, which are evident even in its utilization in the public sector. Especially the use of artificial intelligence technology in the public sector has significant societal implications, as well as direct implications on limiting and infringing upon the rights of citizens.

This paper comprehensively examines the legal issues that require consideration regarding the introduction of artificial intelligence in the public sector.
