The pandemic, which came unannounced, has caused people to feel the limitations of physical books and spaces, and discussions on library digital capabilities and sustainable library services are spreading. The e-book service of public libraries is at the stage of expanding to the autonomous district level and seeking to revitalize the service. In this study, a user satisfaction survey was conducted on the Gangdong district Library in Seoul to identify the current status of public library e-book services and suggest improvement measures. Based on the analysis results, improvement measures were derived in three aspects: expanding e-book content, strengthening user support services, and improving the e-book system management system.

The identity of public libraries in Japan is a social education institution under the 「Social Education Act」 and the 「Library Act」. For these identities, the local government's board of education has operated and managed public libraries, and some have managed by the Management Outsourcing System to public organizations. Then, in 2003, the 「Local Autonomy Act」 was revised to introduce the Designated Manager System in form of administrative disposition, and expanded the scope of application to private institutions and organizations. As of the end of 2018, 18.0% of public libraries introduced the DMS, but the pros and cons surrounding it are sharply opposed. This study outlined the overall status of the DMS and the introduction of public libraries, and critically reviewed major issues. As a result, As a result, there was much controversy over the expected cost reduction, service improvement, employee professionalism, business continuity, and cooperation network establishment when DMS was introduced. The reasons were due to downsizing-based personnel management, contract-oriented employment, short periods of designation, lack of multiple competitive markets, and declining service capabilities of irregular workers. The public library is a knowledge and cultural infrastructure that enhances human values and social dignity based on faithful collection and active service, and is a local public goods that emphasizes non-exclusion and non-competitiveness. Given the increasing number of cases in which public libraries are recently contracting out to cultural foundations in Korea, DMS is not a fire across the river. We need to be wary of the possibility that Japan's unbearable institutional lightness will be applied to public libraries in Korea.

As new disasters such as COVID-19, MERS, and earthquakes appear in modern society, the nation's ability to manage uncertain risks is becoming more important. The government is promoting a disaster safety management policy closely related to daily life by reinforcing on-site response capabilities. Therefore, in order to respond more effectively to disasters that have recently been enlarged, complicated, and delocalized, there is a limit to only disaster-related organizations in the public sector. It is necessary to check it and find ways to develop it. In the event of an unpredictable national disaster or infection, the government needs disaster safety management measures closely related to daily life. Accordingly, as an efficient response and strategy such as procedures and methods for funeral support at the scene of a national disaster were needed, a designated funeral home was introduced. In the event of a major disaster, a large number of casualties that exceed the daily work level of the relevant department occur and rapid changes in relief, medical care, funeral and administrative procedures occur accordingly. The purpose of this study is to derive basic operating directions and prompt funeral support plans for funeral homes designated for national disaster preparedness.

1997년 하수종말처리장의 민간위탁을 시작으로 국내 수도산업의 효율화에 대한 논의는 정부부처와 전문기관, 학계 등을 중심으로 제시되어 왔다. 수도산업 구조개편 논의는 지방상수도와 하수도산업의 규모의 영세성을 극복하기 위한 수직적 수평적 통합, 지방자치단체의 직영으로 인한 비효율성 제거를 위한 경영형태의 변화 등 크게 두 가지 흐름으로 정리할 수 있다. 상 하수도 사업의 수직적 수평적 통합은 주로 164개 수도사업자를 대략 9개 또는 12개 대규모 권역, 26개 또는 31개 중규모 권역으로 통합하는 방안들이 논의되고 있는데, 이와 같은 광역화 방안에 대해서는 정부부처, 연구기관, 전문가그룹 등에서 전반적인 합의가 형성되고 있다. 하지만 경영형태의 변화는 공사화와 민영화가 가장 큰 논의의 흐름으로, 이에 대해서는 집단과 지역 등 이해관계자간 상이한 견해들로 사회적인 합의를 이루지 못하고 있다. 한편 선진 수도사업을 구축하고 있는 프랑스, 네덜란드, 이스라엘 등지 에서는 수도산업의 효율성뿐만 아니라 공공성 제고 관점에서 구조적인 변화를 꾀하고 있다. 프랑스 파리시는 과거 150여 년 동안 유지되어 오던 수도사업의 민간운영을 전문공기업에 의한 위탁운영 방식으로 전환하는가 하면, 이스라엘은 정부와 민간기업간의 역할 분리를 통하여 물산업 수출국가로 발전하였다. 또한 네덜란드에서는 민영화 도입을 둘러싼 사회적 역량을 보다 발전적인 방향으로 유도하고자 법률로써 민영화를 금지하였다. 이에 본 연구는 글로벌 수도산업의 구조적인 변화 등을 살펴봄으로써 국내 수도산업이 효율성과 공공성을 제고하기 위한 경영 개선에 앞서 고려되어야 할 선결과제를 다음과 같이 제시한다. 첫째, 본 연구에서 살펴본 글로벌 수도산업의 구조적 변화(민영화에서 전문공기업화)는 수도사업의 정보의 비대칭성 및 투자저하가 효율적인 규제 메커니즘 부재에서 비롯되었다는 인식에서 추진되었다. 반면 국내시장은 산업 경제 전반이 정부주도로 이루어짐에 따라 적절한 규제의 틀과 문화가 정착되어 있지 않을 뿐만아니라 규제를 위한 전문인력도 상당히 부록한 실정이다. 따라서 효과적인 민영화의 도입을 위해서는 인적 제도적 인프라 형성이 선결과제이다. 둘째, 신규 또는 개량 투자에 대한 수요 발생, 생산원가에 미달하는 요금회수율 등은 민영화 도입 이후요금인상의 압박요인으로 작용할 것이다. 따라서 생산원가를 저감시키기 위한 광역화, 통합관리체계 등에 의한 원가절감 노력을 통하여 수도산업을 효율화하고 요금회수율을 현실화 등의 과제가 선결되어야 할 것이다.

방재마을만들기는 지역방재개념을 도입하여 마을단위에서 자치단체와 주민들의 참여를 통해 지역자율 방재의식을 고취시키고, 마을에 조성되어 있는 환경적 영향을 고려하여 재해로 인한 취약요인을 조사하고 취약요인이 유사/인접되어 있는 마을을 대상으로 취약요인을 종합적으로 검토한 재해예방사업의 추진이 필요하다. 방재시범마을만들기 구축사업의 계획범위는 동/리 행정구역 단위로 실질적인 생활권 단위로, 생활권 단위에서의 방재관련 사업의 패키지화를 통하여 지역의 자주적 방재역량이 향상되도록 하는 사업으로 현재 방재시범마을은 조성/운영중에 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 지역방재 실무 담당자, 대학교수, 연구원 등 전문가를 대상으로 의식조사를 실시하여 현 실태조사를 토대로 한국형 방재마을 구축 방안에 대해 도출하고자 한다. 전문가 설문결과 현 지역의 방재대책은 전반적으로 미미하며, 구조적인 부분과 비구조적인 부분 모두 보강되어야함을 알 수 있었다. 그 중에서도 지역주민의 방재에 대한 관심부분은 상당히 부족하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 방재마을이라는 사업의 이미지는 대부분의 응답자가 재해위험지구의 정비사업 혹은 지역단위의 종합적 방재대책이라는 의견이 다수였으며, 방재마을 전반에 대한 의견으로는 지자체의 추진의지, 방재마을관련 법 제도 정비, 사업예산의 지속적인 확보, 방재마을 홍보 및 주민참여 등의 중요성을 강조하는 의견이 있었다. 이러한 설문결과를 바탕으로 지자체의 추진의지가 어느 정도냐에 따라 사업의 형태를 갖추고 성공할 수 있으며, 지속적으로 사업이 추진될 수 있는 방안 및 사업의 안정적 확보방안이 중요하다는 결론을 도출할 수 있다. 한국형 방재마을 조성을 위해서는 주민참여가 바탕이 되어야 하며, 이를 위해 방재마을 사업을 시민들의 풀뿌리 방재활동과 연계하여 추진하는 것도 요구된다.

Recently, local government has adopted the film location as the strategies for regional development and has established local film commissions for facilitating the film location. The film locations in Gyeongbuk have been grown gradually since Taejo Wang Geon, TV series was filmed in KBS on-location set of Mungyeong, and the government of Gyeongbuk established the Geeongbuk film commission in 2006. However, the film locations in Gyeongbuk are confined to filming some products in Gyeongbuk, and there's few film-related firms in Gyeongbuk. Furthermore, the film industries in Gyeongbuk is consumption-led and the capability of film-related firms is still weak. Therefore, Gyoengbuk film commission should play the wide roles, making the film-friendly institutions, creating local atmosphere of collaboration, fostering film-induced tourism, and maturing local film culture, as well as the general roles of film commission, offering the film location services, database services and networking.

National statistical system in Korea has developed along with national economic agenda such as a government oriented high economic growth and has formed to a typical diversified statistical system. While the national statistics have been produced whenever they are needed, they are facing the critics that production of basic statistics were lack of balance. Grasping the statistical demand properly, enhancing the statistical concurrence with international organization, preventing the production of overlapped and similar statistics, and improving the professionalism of manpower in statistical industry are the structural problems that Korean statistical system has to get over. It is important to strengthen the coordination mechanism and the governance structure of the national statistical system to level up the integrity and credibility of statistical program. The length of Chief Statistician's tenure need to be assured.

Objectives: The budget gap in the health sector of local governments affects the supply of health services, which can cause the health gap. This study classified local governments according to their financial characteristics, such as local financial independence and health budget level. It analyzed the health behaviors and disease prevalence of local residents to examine the effect of local government financial investment on the health of local residents. Methods: To classify types according to the financial characteristics of local governments, financial independence and the health budget data for 17 local governments were collected from the local fiscal yearbook of the Ministry of Public Administration and Security. The prevalence of chronic diseases and healthy behavior was compared using the 16,333 data of adults between the ages of 30 and 65 years among the original data of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2016-2020). Results: Cluster analysis was used to classify local governments into five clusters according to the health financial capacity type. A comparison of the prevalence of local residents by cluster revealed a similar prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia. On the other hand, the obesity rate (P < 0.01), high-risk drinking rate (P < 0.01), aerobic physical activity rate (P < 0.001), and healthy eating practice rate (P < 0.001) were significantly different. In addition, an analysis of the odds ratio based on the Seoul area revealed a higher risk of health behavior of non-Seoul residents. Conclusions: It is necessary to review the universal health promotion project budget considering the degree of regional financial vulnerability from the viewpoint of health equity to narrow the health gap among regions.
