초록

본 연구는 미국 공공도서관의 이민자 대상 서비스를 1900년대 초와 현재로 나누어 분석 비교하였다. 1900년대 초의 미국 공공도서관은 영어강좌를 개설하고 미국 시민으로서 갖추어야 할 정보들을 제공함으로써 미국화 운동에 앞장섰다. 공공도서관 사서들은 또한 외국어 자료의 중요성을 인식하였다. 외국어 자료의 제공과 이민자를 위한 다양한 서비스의 개발은 결국 이민자들이 미국 사회에 동화되는 것을 촉진시켰다. 100년이 흐른 지금도 상황은 크게 달라지지 않았다. 공공도서관들은 여전히 이민자들의 영어 교육에 중점을 둔 채, 포괄적인 외국어 자료 장서와 문화적으로 다양한 도서관 프로그램으로 각기 다른 나라에서 온 이민자들에게 서비스를 제공하려 노력하고 있다.

This study examines and compares public library services for immigrants in the U.S. in the early 1900s and nowadays. U.S. public libraries in the early 1900s supported the Americanizing movement by opening English language classes and providing information that is essential for U.S. citizenship. Public librarians also recognized the importance of foreign language materials; by providing foreign language materials and developing diverse services to reach immigrants, public libraries eventually hastened assimilation processes. Despite a gap of one hundred years, the situation today is not very different. Public libraries still try hard to serve their ethnic patrons with extensive foreignlanguage collections and culturally diverse library programs, while still emphasizing English language education.
