The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly changed the landscape of knowledge and information services that public libraries around the world have been providing since modern times. In particular, as social distancing has become routine, the contraction of cultural activities and the shift to online platforms have negatively impacted library visitation and use services, greatly reducing borrowing and reading, use of spaces and facilities, interlibrary loan services, program operations, and outreach services. Therefore, this study investigated and analyzed the current status of services provided by public libraries in Korea and abroad in response to COVID-19, and proposed practical ways to improve and expand services in response to COVID-19 based on the results of a survey of librarians' perceptions. Specifically, these include improving the online reservation system for reading and borrowing services and developing and providing various outreach services, acquiring and expanding electronic resources, expanding online program services (reading, culture, lifelong learning, etc.), strengthening library services for vulnerable populations, providing information portal services related to new infectious diseases, strengthening facilities and space provision services, preparing infectious disease response guidelines, and providing education and training to strengthen librarians' capabilities.

공개자원운동의 일환으로 등장한 OER, OCW 컨텐츠를 정보자원으로서 관리해야 할 필요성이 커지고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 국내 대학도서관 OER 현황분석을 하고자 한다. 이를 위해 성균관대학교, 숙명여자대학교, 부산대학교를 분석대상으로 선정하였으며, 컨텐츠 및 컨텐츠 품질, 홍보, 플랫폼 세 항목을 기준으로 분석하였다. 그 결과 첫째, OER을 정보자원으로서 체계적으로 수집 관리해야 할 대상으로 보고 있지 않았다. 둘째, OER 서비스 활성화를 위해 적극적으로 홍보가 이루어지지 않고 있었다. 셋째, 이용자들이 참여할 수 있는 OER 플랫폼은 구축되어 있으나 이용자들이 쉽게 접근할 수 있는 수준이라 보기 어려웠다. 이에 대한 해결 방안을 모색하여 대학도서관이 교내정보자원의 통합관리기관으로서 역할제고 방안에 대해 고찰하는 것에 의의가 있다.

In recent years, smart technology has been applied to various information system fields. Especially, traditional library service area is changing to Smart-Library from Digital-Library. In this environment are need to library service software platform for supporting variety content, library services, users and smart-devices. Due to this, existing library service has a limitation that inhibits semantic interoperability between different heterogeneous library systems. In this paper, we propose Linked-Open-Data based smart library as an archetype of future-library system that provide a variety content and system interaction and integration of services. It is an innovative system of the cutting-edge information intensive. Therefore, we designed system environments according to various integration requirements for smart library based on Linked-Open-Data. And, we describe the functional requirements of smart-library systems by considering the users' demands and the eco-systems of information technology. In addition, we show the reference framework, which can accommodate the functional requirements and provide smart knowledge service to user through a variety of smart-devices.

Public library programs serve a cultural function and are a tool for community interaction. Recently, there has been an increase in the number of websites that integrate the programs of various institutions, but there is no set framework to describe the programs. Therefore, in order to prepare a framework for program information, we conducted a content analysis of Jeongdok Library programs as an example. Using MAXQDA, a content analysis tool, category codes for type, topic, special classification, and target audience were derived. Based on this, we analyzed the characteristics of the Jeongdok library programs as follows. In terms of type, there are many programs such as classes and lectures, but fewer programs related to tours, performances and screenings, and operational experiences. In terms of topic matter, programs related to reading and the arts were dominant, while programs related to book curation, awards, and the environment were less common. In terms of target audience, the most common programs were for adults, with fewer programs for high school students, middle school students, and library staff. The framework of Jeongdok library program can be used not only to classify the programs currently operated by other public libraries, but also to develop a service platform for public library programs in Korea.
