Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of perceived relational benefits of senior library users on the relationship quality and intent to relationship continuity. This study was conducted 50+ public library users through the survey, and 185 subjects were analyzed. The results showed that relational benefits mediated by relationship quality affect intent to relationship continuity. Particularly, functional benefit among the relational benefits had a great effect on intent to relationship continuity, mediated by relationship quality. Commitment among relational quality had a great effect on intent to relationship continuity. These findings suggest marketing policy implications to develop service policy for senior library users.

본 연구는 공공도서관 시니어 이용자가 도서관 이용 시 지각하는 관계혜택이 관계품질과 관계지속의도에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해 공공도서관을 이용하는 50세 이상의 시니어 이용자 185명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과, 공공도서관의 시니어 이용자가 지각하는 관계혜택은 관계품질을 매개로 관계지속의도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 관계혜택요인 중 기능적 혜택은 관계품질을 매개로 관계지속의도에 강한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 관계품질 요인 중 몰입은 관계지속의도를 예측하는 가장 중요한 변수로 확인되었다. 본 연구는 공공도서관 시니어 이용자와 도서관과의 관계형성과정을 관계마케팅의 관점에서 알아봄으로써 이용자 특성에 따른 도서관마케팅 전략개발에 실천적 시사점을 제시하였다는데 그 의의가 있다.
