Outsourcing has been around a long time in libraries. Card catalogs of LC, and approvalplans, subscription agents and binding of journal are all forms of outsourcing that librarieshave come to accept as normal procedures. Nevertheless. outsourcing is one of the mostcontroversial topics discussed in library management today. It carries meanings ranging fromtraditionally outsourced activities to more recent outsourcing of entire functions anddepartments. This study will provide background and context for the issue of outsourcing.suggest several useful guidelines for the entities of library outsourcing in Korea. One of thecommon rationales for outsourcing is that the activity being outsourced is a "noncore"functions to the mission of the libraries. The best approach to outsourcing is probably a'middle-ground' objective approache-ground' objective approach.

This study intends to make a comprehensive inquiry about the theoretical foundations of cataloging outsourcing. To the end, this study examined (1) backgrounds of cataloging outsourcing, 2) the pros and cons of cataloging outsourcing, (3) theoretical justification suggested by guardians of cataloging outsourcing, and (4) methodological limitations found in literatures on the subject. On the basis of it, finally suggested are methodologies for evaluating 'effectiveness' of cataloging outsourcing.

We analyzed various cost components for approximately 40 small-scale island desalination plants operated by K-water. A significant factor affecting desalination cost was found, and we proposed a way to reduce desalination costs. All plants considered were reverse osmosis (RO) facilities. TDS concentrations of feed water varied from less than 1,000 mg/L (practically considered freshwater) to over 30,000 mg/L (nearly seawater). Analysis of desalination costs from 2005 to 2009 indicated that maintenance, labor, and energy were the three biggest components that accounted for 50.6%, 36.9% and 7.8%, respectively. It was well known that TDS of feed water directly affected energy needed for RO process. In this study we found that maintenance cost was also directly related to feed water TDS. This finding indicated that lowering feed water TDS might result in significant desalination cost reduction.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the present status of outsourcing of the academic library working in Jagan and to suggest the alternatives of the problems facing with conversing the National University to the Corporation(named the government authority Corporation). The Corporation is implemented because of government financial crisis and decreasing of student candidates. As the result, the university autonomy will be enlarged, but the government financial assistance will be decreased. So outsourcing will be increased in the reason of the cutting of working expenses. For facing to the that environmental change, academic library should make preparations of their future.

The purpose of this study is to verify the gain and loss of cataloging outsourcing in Korea public libraries. To this end, the following specific research questions are investigated: (1) How much has cataloging outsourcing enhanced the efficiency of cataloging operations? (2) What is an influence of cataloging outsourcing on the quality of catalogs? and finally, (3) Is there any evidence to strengthen core library service by outsourcing cataloging? The data needed for this study were collected from a survey with 3 public libraries which have experienced outsourcing. To make a comparative study, a survey with 3 public libraries against outsourcing are also included.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the pre-evaluation of the feasibility of establishing a public library, which is mandatory according to the revision of the Library Act, can improve the quality of the library. Therefore, the effectiveness of the preliminary evaluation was analyzed through the case analysis of the preliminary evaluation of the public library construction support project, which was implemented for the same purpose before the revision of the Library Act. In the case of libraries built after preliminary evaluation, most of the minimum standards for legal librarians required by the Enforcement Decree of the Library Act were secured, which helped secure basic library personnel. However, there were few libraries that secured and operated as much manpower as originally planned, and in some cases, the application applied to operate the library directly, but it was changed to consignment operation at the time of opening, so the pre-review details were not faithfully reflected. This study proposed re-establishing realistic librarian placement standards according to the revision of the law and introducing a post-evaluation using the library registration system so that it would not be a formal pre-process through case analysis.
