Abstract

This study examined librarians' perceptions of Information Commons(I.C.), user's information seeking behaviors, and new role of library in the digital ages. Interviews with 28 librarians found that the perceptions of the librarians were widely differed depending on their understandings of the nature of the space. The interview results were divided into three different categories of librarians: the librarians; 1) understanding library as a place only with academic functions, 2) library as academic place along with multi-cultural functions, and 3) library as open learning space with focus on creativity and discovery of users. The findings also indicated that all these perceptions are closely related to understanding of the role of library and its future development.

본 연구는 정보광장 담당 사서를 대상으로 정보광장 의미와 목적, 새로운 도서관 환경에서의 역할, 도서관의 본질과 발전 방향, 그리고 정보광장 이용행태에 대한 인식을 조사하였다. 총 28명을 인터뷰한 결과 정보광장에 대한 사서의 인식은 1) 정보광장의 전통적인 학술 연구 기능만을 강조하여 이를 학술연구 시설로만 이해하는 유형, 2) 정보광장을 학술연구를 위한 물리적 공간으로 이해하면서 아울러 문화융복합적 기능을 강조하는 유형, 3) 정보광장을 창조적 기능이 강조된 학술문화 복합시설로 이해하는 유형의 3가지로 대별되었다. 이는 정보광장 이용자 이용행태에 대한 평가와 도서관의 발전 방향에 대한 인식과 밀접히 연관되어 있는 것으로 나타났다.
