The purpose of this study is to understand the acceptance of the electronic journals among undergraduate students. Using a survey questionnaire, this study collected the data collected from 813 students taking 11 courses offered in five different universities. The levels of electronic jounal and its service awareness appeared to be low as 63.7% and 59.9% respectively. Only 43.8% of the respondents report their experience of using Korean e-journals. There is a statistically significant difference in use among college groups and students' major of study. E-journals are mostly used off-campus and within the library, using simple search techniques. In spite of difficulties in search and gathering information, the satisfaction level marked above average. Reasons of nonuse are lack of opportunity and knowledge. However, 93.8% of nonusers report a willingness to use the e-journals in the future. LIS students show higher e-journal awareness and use experience compared to non-LIS students. Yet, the levels of using simple search techniques and satisfaction show little difference from those of the non-LIS students. The findings of the study suggest implications to promote the acceptance of e-journals among college students.

This study attempted to verify the impacts of the level of satisfaction in the user of alternative materials among people with visual impairment on their social participation, and the mediation effect of self-efficacy during such process. The subject of the study was the visually impaired who were live in Gyeonggi Province and were registered in the Korea Blind Union. The data of final 120 participants through a telephone survey were analyzed. The subject of the study used the recorded materials the most for the purpose of leisure and information research mainly at the braille library. The analysis of the mediation effect demonstrated that the level of satisfaction in the user of alternative materials among people with visual impairment had a statistically significant influence on social participation, and self-efficacy had a full mediation effect. These results imply the importance of alternative materials to assure the right to information access which can ultimately expand the social engagement of the visually impaired. Based on these study results, political suggestions are proposed to vitalize alternative materials in the future.

The purpose of this study is to understand the field experience of collaboration classes for Media and Information Literacy (MIL) and to obtain implications for MIL collaboration classes. To this end, focus group interviews (FGI) were conducted with 11 teachers and 9 students from 5 elementary and secondary schools. The research results are as follows. First, collaboration classes were not commonly operated in educational settings. Second, teachers and students who experienced collaboration classes were found to increase students' class participation. Fourth, despite their satisfaction with collaboration classes, teachers reported that the number of class hours increased or they felt burdened by class preparation. Since the achievement and satisfaction of teachers and students in MIL collaborative classes were high, it is necessary to develop a MIL collaborative class model and guidelines to expand MIL collaborative classes.

Parents' interest and care are very important for their children in the process of growing up, but parenting is also very unfamiliar and difficult for themselves. Parents constantly need information related to parenting, and in order to solve this problem, they try to obtain information through informal meetings or social relationships among parents at an individual level, which often brings up conflicts and stresses. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to explore the characteristics of social networks among parents and to understand the influence of the network characteristics on information-sharing intention and information-sharing satisfaction. To this end, a survey questionnaire was developed based on previous studies and was administered among parents whose children are in a daycare center. Then, the data was analyzed using social network analysis (SNA) method. Findings indicate that the correlation among the social networks, the information -sharing intention, and the information-sharing satisfaction was significant, but the influence of the social networks on the information-sharing intention, and the information-sharing satisfaction was not established. It was also found that the intention to receive help was higher than the desire to help others. Policy suggestions to meet parents' information needs and the need to reconsider the role of local public libraries were presented.

The study explored the extent of the effect of content book trailer services among the specialized services of the library using the latest technology. The AIDMA&AISAS model was employed to measure the seven reactions of user behavior: Attention, Interest, Search, Desire, Memory, Action, and Share. A total of 287 responses were analyzed by conducting surveys with users who had experienced book trailer services at 13 public libraries located in Incheon. The study found that there were significant differences in user behavioral reactions in all of the content genre, including message, conflict, and character, and in particular, the character genre had the highest effects, followed by conflict and message genres. However, the post-hoc test indicated that there was no significant difference between the genres of conflict and character in terms of interest, search, and user satisfaction. The present study suggests theoretical implications by assessing and confirming the effects of book trailer services of the content genre on the reactions of user behavior compared with previous studies that measured the effects of the book trailer services of the form genre, and further practical implications for effective book trailer services.

The power of human capital in a library is the main resource that determines the level of library services, which in turn should play a pivotal role in forming the intellectual power of the country. This research conducted a survey on the employment perspectives of LIS undergraduates, which resulted as follows. First, among the LIS undergraduates, 40% of students responded that their desire was to be employed in the library as librarians. Although there were some negative opinions regarding the working environment of the industry, the undergraduates appreciated the developmental possibilities. Second, the most desired task was working with cultural programs. Third, the respondents were satisfied with the current curriculum overall, acknowledging the extra need for job search support programs, which include career support, employment-related mentoring, and internships. Fourth, the main requirements for their future employability were perceived as grade point average, language skills, obtaining licenses, internship and apprenticeship experience, and career management. Fifth, influential factors on employment decision making were divided into two aspects: environmental and personal factors. The environmental factors included salary, welfare, opportunities in personal development, workplace environment, organizational culture, and development possibilities of the organization. The personal factors included fitness with personal aptitude, the level of knowledge and technology in the job industry, social norms and acknowledgement, rewarding opportunities with their major, and location of job.
