Abstract

Today's information services in most archival institutions implement the same administrative procedures for general users and academic researchers, leading to issues hindering the latter's research activities. As such, this study presents a direction for the effective provision of information services by investigating and analyzing information sources mainly used by academic researchers, who are one of the major user groups; researchers' use behaviors in archival institutions; and experiences and perceptions on the such institutions' information services. In particular, surveys and interviews were conducted, and 75 questionnaire responses and 8 interview results were analyzed. The results of the analysis were summarized into the researcher's background information, information sources used, behaviors in using archival institutions' services, information service utilization, improvement requirements, and desired services. Through the results' implications, plans for the provision of information services by archival institutions were proposed based on the researchers' needs and preferences.

현재 대부분의 기록관리기관의 기록정보서비스는 기관을 이용하는 일반 이용자와 학술 목적의 이용자들에게 민원 성격의 행정적 절차를 동일하게 적용하고 있어, 학술 목적 이용자의 연구 활동을 저해시킨다는 문제점을 야기하고 있다. 이에 이 연구에서는 기록관리기관의 주요한 이용자 집단인 학술연구자들이 주로 연구에 활용하는 정보원, 기록관리기관에 대한 연구자들의 이용행태, 기록정보서비스에 대한 경험 및 인식 등을 조사·분석함으로써, 기록관리기관의 효과적인 기록정보서비스 제공을 위한 방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 설문조사와 면담조사를 진행하여, 75명의 설문결과와 8명의 면담결과를 받고, 데이터를 분석하였다. 분석 결과는 연구자 배경정보, 활용 정보원, 기록관리기관 이용행태, 기록정보서비스 활용, 개선 요구사항 및 희망서비스로 정리하였다. 그리고 시사점을 바탕으로 기록관리기관의 바람직한 기록정보서비스 제공을 위한 방안을 제시하였다.
