초록

국민들의 건강정보에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있으나 정확하고 신뢰할 수 있는 건강정보원을 탐색할 수 있는 이용자의 비율은 매우 낮은 것으로 분석되고 있다. 일반 이용자들과 최접점에 있는 공공도서관은 그들의 건강정보활용능력을 향상시키기 위한 교육프로그램을 제공함으로써, 공공도서관 이용자들이 건강정보탐색능력과 분석능력, 정보원의 정확성과 신뢰성을 판단할 수 있는 능력, 올바른 건강관련 의사결정을 내릴 수 있는 능력을 갖출 수 있도록 해야 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 국내 공공도서관 이용자에게 적합한 건강정보활용 교육프로그램을 개발하고 이를 현장에 적용함으로써 그 효과를 측정하고자 하였다. 그 결과, 공공도서관 이용자의 CHI관련 용어에 대한 친숙도 증가, 건강관련 정보를 인터넷에서 찾을 수 있는 능력 향상, 건강관련 사이트 및 정보원에 대한 지식 향상 등의 측면에서 유의한 수준의 교육효과가 나타났다. 또한 공공도서관에서 다양한 건강정보원에 대한 세미나를 제공해 주기를 요구한다고 응답하였으며, CHI관련 교육을 공공도서관의 정규교육과정으로 포함할 것을 요구하였다. 그러나 본 연구는 공공도서관 이용자들을 대상으로 하여 수행된 국내 최초의 CHI관련 교육프로그램으로서 강사진 구성, 주제의 다양성, 방법론 등에서 한계가 있었다. 향후 보다 다양한 CHI관련 이용자교육프로그램이 개발되어 현장에 적용될 수 있기를 바란다.

Despite the growth in public concern about health information, the ratio of users who can search for accurate and reliable health information sources has been found to be quite low. Public libraries, as the best contact point to general users, must provide training programs for improving health literacy so that users will have the ability to search and analyze health information, judge the accuracy and reliability of resources, and make informed health-related decisions. This study developed a health information literacy education program suitable for Korean public library users. The effectiveness of the training was measured after administering the program, and necessary improvements were identified. As a result, this study found the education program had the following effects: improved public library users' familiarity with CHI-related terms, improved users' ability to find CHI-related information resources on the Internet, and significantly improved knowledge about health-related websites and information sources. In addition, users expressed interest in seminars on a variety of health information sources in the public library and asked that CHI-related education be included in the library's regular programming. However, this research represented the first time CHI-related education for public library users was performed in Korea, and therefore many limitations were present in the education instructor, the diversity of subjects, and the methodology. Development of more advanced CHI-related education programs for users is still required.
