Based on the Everyday Information Seeking Behavior Theory, this study investigates information activities and library experience of 66 elderly or people with disabilities in Autonomous District A. In addition, this study analyzes contextual circumstances of daily information activities through in-depth interviews with a subset of 11 people. Although community welfare centers provide basic welfare, the elderly and people with disabilities seek to learn and socialize in cultural welfare centers, particularly in libraries. This study shows that libraries can fulfill their top three of Maslow's hierarchy of needs: Self-Actualization, Esteem, and Love and Belonging. Specifically, digital literacy education has been identified to be highly demanded. They seek to distinguish correct online information and to socialize using digital technologies in this contactless society. This study proposes a detailed plan for public libraries to offer cultural and information welfare in order to reduce the information gap within the local communities.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of a comparative process so that students majoring in urban planning and design can develop the ability to present non-physical alternatives along with the ability to present alternatives to a physical environment to solve urban problems. A total of 30 students majoring in urban planning and urban design were analyzed for their satisfaction with their majors, intention to find a job related to their majors, and academic achievement. This was done after conducting a comparative course of living-lab projects utilizing idle space in a region in connection with a major education course for about a year. For the analysis, the four-group design used by Solomon was used to find the differences between students who participated in the class and those who did not. The analysis showed that the students who participated in the comparative course of the living-lab project were highly satisfied with their major and their intention to find a job related to their major. The results of this study suggest that the process of cultivating the ability to work with local residents and merchants to present physical and non-physical alternatives to solve local problems by utilizing the means of living lab projects has a positive effect on the students' attachment to their majors and their self-esteem.
