도서관에서 교육 분야가 주요 영역으로 인식되어 가면서 수행되고 있는 교육활동도 점차 다양한 분야로 확장되어 가고 있다. 이러한 변화에 따라 교육을 담당하는 사서 역할의 중요성도 강조되고 있다. 이 연구에서는 구인광고에 나타난 도서관의 교육 사서 모집현황을 통하여 교육사서의 역할과 자격요건을 분석하여 도서관의 교육활동 분야의 특성을 분석하고자 하였다. 분석 결과 교육사서의 업무 중 참고봉사와 장서개발 업무에 대한 역할과 자격요건이 교 관련 업무와 유사하게 중요한 것으로 나타났고 웹과 교육관련 어플리케이션 등 정보기술에 대한 중요성도 강조되고 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다.
