Many libraries and information centers offer various resources on their web sites and web reference is one of them. However, it can be quite burdensome for individual libraries to build a reliable database while sorting through countless web data. The attempts to build a collaborative database have been also unsuccessful due to heavy workload of librarians and financing problems. This study seeks to propose a UCC(User Created Contents)-based web reference database created by general users including librarians. It is an open reference database where everyone can contribute regardless of their affiliation and library types (for librarians), Also, it requires metadata scheme to standardize web-based references. By setting the initial metadata, it can present a basic guideline for users to post web references.
