A Study on the Introduction of Information Commons to the University Libraries

대학도서관의 Information Commons(정보공유공간) 도입에 관한 연구

  • Published : 2007.03.30

Abstract

This study aims to suggest the ways to apply Information Commons to local university libraries, which face various changes in users and information environment, for using the libraries' space more effectively and for providing users with more satisfying services. Information Commons, which is a concept having been gradually spreading mainly in the U.S. from the early 1990's, is a service place where users can work out anything related to their studies or various lecture-related jobs because they are provided with various information and electronic resources in that one spot. Researches show that physical and human resources should be prepared before executing Information Commons to minimize the problems and to maximize the effectiveness from applying it. Physical resources are such as PC rooms, multimedia rooms, education rooms, one person or group study rooms, and cafe or lounge. Human resources are the librarians who can do reference services including giving the lectures on using library information resources and who can solve the operating problems related to IT.

본 연구는 대학도서관의 효과적인 공간 활용과 이용자서비스를 위해 미국을 중심으로 90년대 이후 점차 확산되고 있는 Information Commons의 국내 대학도서관 적용 방안을 모색하고자 하였다. 도서관의 정보와 전자자원을 통합 제공함으로써 이용자들의 연구 및 과제와 관련된 모든 작업을 한 장소에서 수행할 수 있도록 하기 위한 Information Commons는 이용자 및 정보환경의 변화를 경험하고 있는 국내 대학도서관에도 적용을 고려할 필요가 있다. Information Commons 도입에 따른 문제를 최소화하고 효과를 극대화하기 위해서는 설치 이전에 PC실, 멀티미디어실, 교육장, 개인용 및 그룹용 스터디룸, 그리고 까페 라운지 등의 물리적요소와 참고질문 및 정보기술문제의 해결을 통해 Information Commons를 효과적으로 운영할 수 있고 정보활용교육을 수행할 수 있는 인적요소에 대한 확보가 필수적인 것으로 조사되었다.
