Abstract

Based on this study, the research trends were identified for the field of public libraries in Korea by utilizing the keyword network analysis. For 20 years from 2003 to 2022, a total of 752 papers related to the public libraries published in the four largest academic journals in the field of library and information science in Korea were analyzed. The research results are as follows. First, from 2003 to 2022, an annual average of 37.6 papers were published, demonstrating a pattern of repeated rise and fall. Second, the keywords of 'service' and 'culture' were identified as the most discussed keywords as they were found to be among the top five in terms of the frequency of occurrence, connection centrality, and the mediation centrality analysis results. Third, in terms of the results of analyzing the co-occurrence frequency of keyword pairs, attention was paid to the keyword pairs of education-program, service-user, service-children, and service-disability.

본 연구는 키워드 네트워크 분석을 활용하여 국내 공공도서관 분야 연구 동향을 파악하였다. 2003년부터 2022년까지 20년 동안 우리나라 문헌정보학 분야 유수 4대 학술지에 출판된 공공도서관 관련 논문 총 752편을 대상으로 하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 2003년부터 2022년까지 연평균 37.6편이 간행되었으며, 상승과 하락을 반복하는 출판양상을 보였다. 둘째, '서비스'와 '문화' 키워드는 출현 빈도와 연결중심성 및 매개중심성 분석결과 모두에서 상위 5위 이내로 파악됨으로써 가장 논의가 많이 된 핵심 키워드로 확인되었다. 셋째, 키워드 쌍의 동시 출현 빈도 분석결과에서 교육-프로그램 키워드 쌍과 서비스-이용자와 서비스-어린이 및 서비스-장애 키워드 쌍이 주목되었다.
