Abstract

This research attempted to examine the influence of the public library on our society and its relationship with social capital. For this research, a theoretical approach to the relationship was required. This approach enabled the research to analyze the type and range of the social capital being studied. In addition, this research emphasized that the social influence of public libraries was equivalent to the influence of social capital, based on the interaction between individual and community. The research outlined the mechanism by which public libraries create social capital. Finally the findings of this research were expected to help to develop an effective policy for public libraries.

이 연구는 사회자본의 이해를 통해 공공도서관의 사회적 영향과 사회자본과의 관련성을 이론적으로 검토하여 공공도서관의 사회자본 형태와 범위를 유추하였다. 도서관의 사회적 영향은 개인 및 공동체의 상호작용을 통해 얻어지는 성과물로써 사회의 생산성을 담보하는 사회자본의 효과와 동일하다는 점을 강조하였다. 또한 공공도서관이 사회자본을 창출하는 메커니즘을 도식화 하였다. 이 연구의 결과는 사회자본의 관점으로 공공도서관을 평가하여 향후 공공도서관 정책에 효율적인 정책수립을 위한 토대를 마련하게 될 것이다.
