The goal of this study is to analyze use patterns of library collections using circulation statistics of academic library user's. For this purpose, the 264,804 circulation-related data of A-academic library which were occurred between March 2012 and February 2013 were collected and used. Five patterns of common user group (undergraduate, graduate students, professors, staffs, the others users) are identified for this study. Gross circulation statistics was analyzed and compared for different users groups and for different subjects. And based on these analysis results, author understood degree of collection use by subject, degree of collection use by user groups, latest materials preference in collection use by subject, latest materials preference in collection use by user groups.

본 연구는 이동도서관에서 집중적으로 많이 이용되는 도서의 특성을 조사하고 이용자의 유형을 조사하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 얻은 결론은 도서 대출 분포는 브랫포드의 분산법칙, 지프의 법칙같은 현상이 존재한다는 것이다. 즉, 대출 횟수의 약 80%가 장서의 약 30%이내에서 오며 도서 대출 경향에서 수확 체감 현상이 나타났다. 그리고, 도서의 내용, 출판 후 경과 년수, 대출 경과 일수, 인구학적 특성이 장서의 이용에 영향을 준다. 즉, 아동 도서, 한국 소설, 외국 소설 순으로 많이 대출되며 출판 후 경과년수가 5-6년 이내의 도서가 핵심 도서이며 출판 후 경과년수가 짧은 도서일수록 대출횟수가 많다. 그러나, 아동 도서, 한국 소설, 외국 소설이 대출 횟수는 많지만 도서 이용가치수명은 기타 도서의 1/2에 불과하다. 대출 도서의 대부분(80%)은 6주이내에 최종 대출되며 이용자는 여자가 30, 40대가, 가정주부가, 고졸이상이 많이 이용한다.

본 논문에서는 카메라형 OCR (Optical Character Reader) 기술을 이용해 오프라인 중고서점의 효율적 장서관리 시스템을 구축하기 위한 디지털 데이터화 관리시스템 방안을 제안한다. OCR은 광학적으로 인식할 수 있는 문자를 컴퓨터가 읽을 수 있도록 하는 기술이다. 원리적으로 문자 한 개를 수십 개의 모눈으로 분할해 특정한 모눈의 흑백 또는 자획형상 특징에 의해 문자를 판독한다. 이 논문에서는 OCR 기술을 활용함으로써 디지털 데이터화의 효과는 물론 적용 환경의 개선효과를 기대해 볼 수 있는 오프라인 중고서점 시장을 목표로 했다. 오프라인 중고서점에서 보유하고 있는 장서의 디지털 데이터화는 기업형 중고서점과의 경쟁에 있어서도 생존을 위해 필요한 요소이다. 카메라형 OCR 기술을 활용한 장서 디지털 데이터화는 오프라인 중고서점 판매자가 도서재고 검색 및 판매 관리 효율을 높이도록 도와줄 뿐 아니라, 도서판매 유형, 소비자 분석과 수요 예측을 가능하게 한다. 또한 소비자에게 오프라인 중고서점에서 보유하고 있는 희귀 장서와 중고서적들을 검색해 구입할 수 있는 편의를 제공할 것이다. 오프라인 중고서점 판매를 촉진하고 활성화시킨다면 출판의 선순환적 구조를 만드는 데 기여할 것으로 예상된다.

The study aims to discuss on legal prospects of digital collections' fair use through an analysis of treaties and legislations domestic and international. Based on analysis of leading researches and literature, it discusses legal principles of fair use and defines digital collections' concept and types. For understanding the actual legal system on fair use, limitations and exceptions of copyrights which are presented in treaties, such as 'Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works' and'Copyright Convention', each nation's laws, and judicial precedents. Especially, a legal dispute between 'Technische $Universit{\ddot{a}}t$ Darmstadt' and Eugen Ulmer KG, which debates on library's rights for digitizing their collections without the rightholder's permission, is analyzed. As a result, this study analyzes its implications for the improvement of the existing copyright system in Korea.

As a law library representing the Department of Justice, the Supreme Court Library of Korea collects various domestic and foreign legal information and aims to become more publicly accessible. In 2018, after its relocation to Goyang, Korea, the library has initiated check-out services to citizens and is currently developing a plan to provide services in the legal field. In this study, we have assessed the current situation at the Supreme Court Library as well as public libraries in Goyang. Furthermore, we have surveyed future users and legal experts to formulate a proposal for optimal literary composition and spatial composition, as well as library arrangement. Survey participants expected extensive provision of legal information regarding legal professions and the general public. There was a significant difference in opinion between legal experts and users with respect to resources for the public; general citizens desire more materials related to general topics whereas legal experts expect more law-specific resources such as information regarding judicial precedents and court decisions, research articles. Furthermore, 80% of users expressed interest in utilizing the library; therefore, active efforts to improve its facilities will lead to successful operations of the library.

This article is an overview of the digital library project, indicating what roles Koreas diverse digital collections may play. Our digital library prototype has simple architecture, consisting of digital repositories, filters, indexing and searching, and clients. Digital repositories include various types of materials and databases. The role of filters is to recognize a format of a document collection and mark the structural components of each of its documents. We are using a database management system (ORACLE and ConText) supporting user-defined functions and access methods that allows us to easily incorporate new object analysis, structuring, and indexing technology into a repository. Clients can be considered browsers or viewers designed for different document data types, such as image, audio, video, SGML, PDF, and KORMARC. The combination of navigational tools supports a variety of approaches to identifying collections and browsing or searching for individual items. The search interface was implemented using HTML forms and the World Wide Web's CGI mechanism.

In this paper, typical types of digital format were defined and digital format selection guidelines of US's NISO(National Information Standards Organization) and LC(Library of Congress) and Denmark's The State and University Library and the Royal Library were introduced. Five sustainability factors and quality and functionality factors were raised through analysing the three sample guidelines. The sustainability factors include descriptive, independency, consistency, widely adopted, and quality. Thus, digital format selection strategies for a library were developed.

The legal deposit for the national library in all countries is the most important mean for acquiring the country's off-line and on-line publications. Because of many limitations of legal deposit system, however, the National Library of Korea does not properly collect the useful materials produced or manufactured in Korea. In order to solve this problem, the author analyzed the status of collection development by legal deposit and estimated the total amount of domestic publications. Based on the these results, author suggested five plans for strengthening the national collections in terms of the provisional 'deposit law', the further development and complementary of current legal deposit regulations (guidelines and standards), desirable amendments of the legal deposit provisions in library act, reasonable division of the deposit targets, and optimization strategies of acquisition scope by material types.
