This article describes the methodologies and case studies related to the evaluation of serials. A Total of 1,529 titles of serials, which were 1997 subscription titles of KINITI in the fields of science and technology, were analyzed. Two methods were employed in the study : the analysis of the opinions of subject specialists and the analysis of the cost per use. The purpose of study are 1) to suggest the models for evaluating serials 2) to identify the characteristics of the core serials.

This paper describes evaluation methods of serials and also introduces a case study related to the selection and evaluation of serials. A total of 1,291 titles of serials, which were subscription titles of POSTECH in the field of science and technology in 2002, were analyzed. This study employs the analysis of POSTECH SCI Article reference data to suggest the models for evaluating serials and to identify the guideline for journal selection and collection development.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the quality of the Serials Union Catalog(UCAT) of KISTI. In examining both MARC records and bibliographic display records of 172 Japanese serials, AACR2R and KORMARC formats were used as the standard rules. Those records were described in the minimum or incomplete level ; but had repeated errors in various data fields, which included the incorrect choice of main headings, parallel titles and other titles, the improper use of language codes and related data fields, and the provision of incomplete information, etc. To improve the overall quality of bibliographic database, thorough comprehension and application of cataloging rules and MARC formats are strongly required.

A Serials Union Catalog is an essential Bibliographic Control tool for integrated and shared the serials information which is scattered to the domestic libraries. It provides reliable informations about serials to user through creating optimized catalogs and holding informations. It is important of the consistency of the bibliographic record and the record's duplication ratio is an important criterion about Database Quality Assessment. This paper checks bibliographic data elements and proposes the duplicate detection process to improve union catalog quality for minimizing duplicate detection.

최근 인터넷을 중심으로 한 전자정보 통신의 발달은 종래의 연속간행물 출판과 배포에 새로운 국면을 제공하고 있는데 바로 전자형태의 저널 및 잡지의 출현이다. 특히 디지털도서관의 출현으로 대부분의 학술잡지들을 인쇄본과 함께 전자형태로 출판하는 추세에 있으며, 이러한 추세에 맞추어 각 출판사, 대학, 연구소 및 전운정보센터에서는 학술지를 중심으로 대부분의 자료들을 디지털화하여 온라인으로 제공하고 있다. 본 연구는 주요 도서관들이 이러한 새로운 정보매체, 즉 전자형태의 저널 및 잡지를 수용하는데 있어서 한정된 예산으로 해당 도서관들이 필요로 한 전자저널과 전자잡지를 선별·수집할 때 적용할 수 있는 평가요소를 연구하였다.

This study examines the university accreditation program and its effect on the resources in the accredited libraries, by using library statistics published in 1990-1999. The results indicate the accreditation may effect on the increase in library seat numbers, building spaces, library holdings, and budgets which included in the evaluation criteria, and the slight decrease in library personnel which is not. It suggests library professionals to be more involved in the accreditaion process to improve the present evaluation criteria and assessment methods.

This study intends to discuss the theories and case studies related to the selection and evaluation of information resources. The studies for the selection and evaluation of information resources can be divided into as follows : statistical methods, cost-effectiveness methods and expert system methods. I also tried to discuss problems and prospects of the theoretical backgrounds and applications of expert system for the selection and evaluation of information resources.

In recent years the service of commercial document delivery has mutured in the library and information field. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the performance of the major document delivery suppliers accessible through the internet. Actual article requests in science and technology were sampled systematically and forwarded to the suppliers selected. Processing data was collected and analyzed in terms of fill rate, delivery time, and cost. Method of delivery was also a criteria of analysis. Results shows that the performance of the commercial suppliers varies according to the criteria. And the knowledge about vendor services and citation verification are important factors affecting the document delivery capability. Finally recommendations based on the results are briefly examined.

With the advent of the digital era, even thought the configuration and the importance of library resources have changed, still only traditional library resources of the past have been used to measure the effectiveness of university libraries. To overcome these limits, this study purposed to redefine the library resources factors for the evaluation of the library effectiveness as appropriate standards in digital library era. The survey method was used, the result follows. Budget, librarians, space, books, periodicals, e-journals, non-book materials, Web DB, e-book, computers are selected as input resources elements, while loan books, users, website visits, web DB uses are selected as output resoures elements. It could be noticeable that the elements related to the electronic resources was reidentified quiet a lot.

This study is aiming to develop an evaluation model considering electronic journal's properties and terms of subscription. As the first step to develop an evaluation model, this study analyzed features of electronic journals and various terms of subscription through reviewing literature. Second, it developed the evaluation model for electronic journals by using proper evaluation indicators which were extracted from previous studies on the evaluation journals and considering the terms of ScienceDirect subscription. Third, this evaluation model was applied to the 99 journals in the field of mechanical engineering in ScienceDirect. As a result of the evaluation, it was found out that there were variations in the value of journals between in 2000 and 2007. Some implications regarding e-journal subscription were also added.
