The purpose of this study is to explore whether reading picturebooks portraying children's play assists adult readers to recall their childhood play memories according to the narrative model of human development. In this study, adult readers recalled their play memories before and after reading a picturebook depicting children's play. Adult readers' responses to the picturebooks were also collected. The types of play from their memories were categorized and the responses were qualitatively analyzed through open coding. The results indicated that first, before reading picturebooks portraying children's play, the type of play that adult readers mostly recalled was games with rules which happened outdoor. Second, after reading a picturebook, adult readers recalled new play memories which contained more detailed elements of narratives. Third, most adult readers responded to picturebooks either emotionally or aesthetically. This study suggests the perspective on picturebooks as a literature and art genre for readers from birth to death. In addition, as an evocative object, a picturebooks could assist adult readers to recall and rediscover their childhood.

With reference management tool based on web, we could understand not only impact about non-author, such as hand-on worker, educator, who are out of academia, but also trace the subject fields of readers and their status. This study by analyzing mendeley, understand what kinds of subject fields and status of readers read library and information science field articles. As a result of analyzing the status and the major of the reader, readers were distributed in the fields of business administration, education and so on, and according to the reader's major, there was a significant difference (p = .000) between the subject area of relatively read a lot. By the way, as the result of relational analysis between citation rate and numbers of mendeley readership about medeley saved articles, correlation coefficient shows 0.585, however as the result of relational analysis limiting the groups, in case of author group who tends to read the articles for citing, correlation coefficient shows 0.619. On the other hand, non-author group shows 0.384.

Existing works to measure readers' understanding of interactive e-books have mainly employed quantitative approach which are difficult to get direct interpretation of the evaluation results. Attentive to interactive, visual and narrative features, this paper proposes a new method for measuring readers' engagement by making them to reconstitute a storyboard. Experimenting with real readers, we validated that this method could give a qualitative assessment that allows finding out problematic narrative phases and the adequacy of interaction formation.

There are very few studies on the guidance service which is one of the important reference and information service function in the library. During the last decades, Readers' Advisory Service has become one of the most interesting and demanding function in many Public libraries of the western world. This paper Introduces the background theory of Readers' Advisory Service and the basic skills for readers' advisors. Library managers and library schools can get ideas from this paper in planning reading programs for adult library users and training programs for library staff and LIS students.

This article intends to locate the logical basis to apply bibliotherapy as a library service in Korean libraries. To the end, investigated and discussed are the historical relationship between bibliotherapy and RAS(readers' advisory service), and the theoretical base and practical experiences that enabled bibliotherapy to be practical in the U.S. library community. This article introduces a concept of 'therapeutic' RAS as a similar concept to 'developmental' bibliotherapy, and suggests the roles of a librarian as a therapist, based on the "Zones of Intervention" by Carol Kuhlthau.

The purposes of this research are to search and analyze information theories which are useful to approach bibliotherapy in terms of 'therapeutic' readers' advisory service, and to propose a conceptual model of 'therapeutic' readers' advisory service on the basis of such theoretical foundations. To the end, Dervin's sense-making theory and Kuhlthau's ISP model are introduced and applied to the conceptual model. The conceptual model is profoundly based on Dervin's situation-gap-use metaphor and Kuhlthau's Uncertainty Principle.

잘 팔리는 번역소설들 대다수는 몇몇 기발한 착상을 중심으로 독자의 흥미를 끌만한 요소를 배열하는 구성방식을 취하면서 줄거리 전개나 인물의 논리성에는 부차적 의의를 둘 따름이다. 또한 주체적인 사고와 그것에 근거한 판단을 유보하려는 독자의 성향에 영합하면서 동시에 그 성향을 조장하는 경향이 존재한다.

News contents has been collected, selected, edited and sometimes distorted by the news recommendation mechanisms of online portals in nowadays. Prior studies had not confirmed the consensus of newsworthiness, and they had not tried to empirically validate the impacts of newsworthiness on audience reactions. This study challenged to summarize the concepts of newsworthiness and validate the impact of representativeness of both editor's and audience's perspective on audience reactions as perceived news quality, trust on news portal, perceived usefulness, service satisfaction, loyalty, continuous usage intention, and word-of-mouth intention by adopting the representativeness heuristics method and information adoption model. 357 valid data had been collected using a scenario survey method. Subjects in each groups are exposed by 3 news recommendation mechanisms: 1) the time-priority news exposure mechanism (control group), 2) the reference-score-based news recommendation mechanism (a single treatment group), and 3) the major-news-priority exposure mechanism sorting by the reference scores made by peer audiences (the mixed treatment group). Data had been analyzed by the MANOVA and PLS method. MANOVA results indicate that only mixed method of both editor and audience recommendation mechanisms impacts on perceived news quality and trust. PLS results indicate that perceived news quality and trust could significantly affect on the perceived usefulness, service satisfaction, loyalty, continuance usage, and word-of-mouth intention. This study would contributions to empathize the role of information technology in media industry, to conceptualize the news value in the balanced views of both editors and audiences, and to empirically validate the benefits of news recommendation mechanisms in academy. For practice, the results of this study suggest that online news portals would be better to make mixed news recommendation mechanisms to attract audiences.

무선 인터넷 서비스를 제공하기 위해 다양한 기술들이 개발되고 있으며, WAP와 같이 국제적 단일 표준 규격으로 개발되고 있는 것도 있고, I-MODE와 같이 이동통신 서비스 사업자의 독자 기술 규격으로 개발되고 있는 것도 있다. 무선 인터넷 서비스가 이동통신 사업자의 사활을 좌우할 수 있는 비즈니스 영역으로 나타나고 있는 상황에서 기능성과 응용 서비스 창출 가능성이 높은 무선 인터넷 기술을 개발하기 위해 국제 단일 표준 규격을 채택하는 것이 나을지 아니면 독자 기술 표준 규격을 개발하는 것이 나을지를 판단하기 위해서는 독자적 기술 규격 개발에 대한 타당성 연구가 필요하다. 이 논문에서는 무선 인터넷 서비스 사업자가 독자적인 무선 인터넷 기술 표준을 바탕으로 무선 인터넷 비즈니스를 추진하는 것이 충분히 성공할 수 있는 선택임을 논증하고자 한다.

What could be the relation between newspapers' tendency and readers' attitude on a particular affair\ulcorner That is, does newspapers' tendency on a particular affair influence readers' attitude on that matter or vice versa\ulcorner Or do they both influence each other\ulcorner These questions deserve to be answered. Owing to Internet Poll introduced in Korean newspapers from the mid-1990s and popular with newspaper readers (particularly with so called netizens), it becomes possible to grip the readers' attitude on a particular affair. And it is well known that newspapers' tendency on a particular affair is well reflected in the editorials. By analyzing and comparing the relation between newspapers' tendency and readers' attitude through internet poll on a particular affair, we understand whether there is a correlation between them or not.
