It has been demonstrated through previous demand analysis that the subject-oriented service system in university libraries are in higher demand than the function-oriented system. Despite of the increasing number of studies that prove cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency of the subject-oriented library service, there are virtually no university libraries in Korea that fully operate subject-oriented service. This study aims to propose a set of practical guidelines for university libraries to introduce subject-oriented service in the midst of many existing constraints, namely staff shortage. The study describes responsibilities of subject specialist librarians and analyzes best practices of subject-oriented service. Also it shows current standing of university libraries of difference size based on web site research of four-year university libraries.

The aim of this study is to re-conceptualize the functions of military libraries in Korea, both as spaces and services, by examining current operating structures and offering strategies for development. In exploring the existing military library operations in Korea, this study assesses key areas, such as human resources, facilities and equipment, budget, cooperation, and collections and materials. By leveraging the cross-area assessments, the study identifies opportunities for improvement and modernization. This study may serve as a foundation to formulate policy-based strategies for the development of military libraries, toward satisfying the information needs of the armed forces and promoting the broader underlying priorities of military libraries.

With the perspective of information management, on-going monitoring of the specified service function is one of the major activities and even critical process. The research consisted of three empirical research questions such as, the current usage and overall user-satisfaction, the quality of the R&D information content and the service, and the problems which have been observed by the actual user group of National Digital Science Library (NDSL). The results of the investigation provided several guidelines that can be utilized for the improvements of the R&D information user service as well as some recommendations for overall optimal administration.

By exploring plausible relations between factors of service quality and user satisfaction, this study has derived significant determinants of user satisfaction. Based on the analytical findings, this study suggested practical measures to enhance user satisfaction of special libraries. If we determine the priority order of three dimensions of service quality depending on specialized areas of special libraries, and revise the items of higher correlations with user satisfaction, then we could effectively and efficiently level up user satisfaction of special libraries.

현재 디지털 도서관 시스템에서 제공하는 정보검색 서비스는 HTML, HTTP등에 근간을 둔 구조적인 방법이지만, 시맨틱 웹 환경에서의 디지털 도서관 시스템은 보다 지능적이고, 상호 응용성이 뛰어난 시맨틱 웹 서비스에 근간을 둔 방법이 필요하다. 대부분의 시맨틱 웹 서비스 시스템에서는 사용자의 요구와 일대일로 매핑 되는 서비스가 있다고 가정하지만 본 논문에서는 이런 경우가 매우 드물다고 가정한다. 이런 가정 하에 본 논문에서는 에이전트가 시맨틱 웹 서비스를 효율적으로 할 수 있는 새로운 planning방법과 execution방법에 대하여 제안하고자 한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 시스템은 사용자가 시맨틱한 질의를 할 수 있고, 에이전트는 그 의미를 파악하여 가능한 모든 경우를 도입하여 planning을 하게 된다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법과 시스템은 새로운 분야에서의 시맨틱 웹 서비스모델로도 적용 가능하다.
