Abstract

This study purposes for the based data for establishing the mid- to long term development direction of Anyang municipal libraries by conducting a survey of residents in Anyang city and focus group interviews with local experts. Based on the results of the survey and FGI analysis conducted in this study, the main implications and discussions for establishing mid- to long term development plans for Anyang municipal libraries in the future are summarized as follows. First, the services used by users are extremely limited compared to the utilization rate of library, and the utilization rate of library programs is low, therefore Anyang municipal libraries need to actively promote various services operated by the library, provide information, and make efforts to improve service use procedures simply. Second, library satisfaction is relatively high, but as a result of analyzing the reasons for some dissatisfaction, active budget investment for purchasing new library materials and ways to increase library accessibility are necessary. Third, due to the low awareness of the operation of specialized libraries, it is necessary to develop specialized, unique library services to Anyang municipal libraries through benchmarking of other best practices. Fourth, in the future, Anyang municipal libraries need to strengthen functions as a complex cultural center along with the functions as an information center, a lifelong education center, and a living convenience center. Lastly, it is required to construct a control tower that can systematically lead the operation of Anyang municipal libraries in the long term through the reorganization of the organizational system.

본 연구는 안양시 지역 주민과 안양시 지역 전문가들을 대상으로 설문조사 및 포커스 그룹 인터뷰를 실시함으로써, 안양시 도서관 중장기 발전 방향 수립을 위한 기초자료로 활용하고자 하는 목적으로 수행되었다. 본 연구에서 수행한 설문조사 및 FGI 분석 결과를 바탕으로 향후 안양시 중장기 발전계획 수립을 위한 주요 시사점과 논의사항들을 정리해 보면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 도서관 이용률에 비해 이용자들이 이용하는 서비스가 극히 제한적이며, 도서관 프로그램 이용률이 낮아 도서관에서 운영하는 다양한 서비스들에 대한 적극적인 홍보와 정보 제공, 서비스 이용 절차 간소화 등에 대한 현장의 개선 노력이 필요하다. 둘째, 도서관 만족도는 비교적 높았으나 일부 불만족 의견의 이유를 분석한 결과, 도서관의 접근성을 높일 수 있는 방안에 대한 고민과 함께 신간 자료 구입에 대한 적극적인 예산 투자가 필요한 것으로 파악되었다. 셋째, 특화도서관 운영에 대한 인지도가 낮아 타 지역 우수사례 벤치마킹을 통해 안양시 공공도서관만의 특화도서관 서비스 개발이 필요하다. 넷째, 향후 안양시 공공도서관은 지식정보센터, 평생교육센터, 생활편의센터로서의 기능과 함께 복합 문화센터로서의 기능을 강화해야 할 필요가 있다. 마지막으로, 안양시 도서관 운영 조직체계 개편을 통해 장기적으로 도서관 운영을 체계적으로 이끌어 갈 수 있는 컨트롤타워 구성이 요구된다.
