Abstract

Young adults are not met adequately by the traditional public library service patterns, being compared for children and adults even though they belong to the main user groups in number. Adolescence is a unique developmental stage distinct from childhood and adulthood and it is fair to say that today's young adults face complex present and confusing future. Projects are made to address the full spectrum of the young adults needs and the important role of public libraries as partners to solve the social youth problems in the USA. The library professional organizations issued young adult service guidelines, recommendations, and manuals to assist public libraries to offer good service programs to young adults. This paper provides the basics of young adult services in the public libraries to help Korean public libraries acknowledge the importance of young adult services and improve the framework of young adult services.

근래에 와서 성인과 아동에 비해 공공도서관서비스의 혜택을 제대로 누리지 못하고 있는 청소년 이용자 군에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있으며, 특히 아동에서부터 성인으로 성장해 가는 발달과정에 있는 청소년들을 위하여 청소년들의 독특한 정보요구에 맞추어 서비스하도록 강조하고 있다. 이를 위해 청소년들의 요구조사가 실시되고 사회적으로 심각한 청소년문제 해결을 위해 공공도서관의 역할이 중요시되고 있다. 이에 따라 도서관계에서는 청소년서비스에 필요한 지침, 권고사항, 매뉴얼 등 기본사항을 제시하여 청소년서비스 개선에 도움을 주고 있다. 본 논문은 국내 공공도서관에서도 청소년서비스의 중요성을 인식하고 보다 체계적으로 청소년서비스를 제공할 수 있도록 미 도서관계에서 제시한 청소년서비스에 관한 기본사항을 소개하고 있다.
