학교 도서실은 단지 자료를 축적해 놓은 자료실로서의 역할만을 목적으로 이용하는 곳이 아니라, 학습활동, 독서활동 자료 및 정보제공, 그리고 레크리에이션의 장으로서의 기능을 가지고 있다. 즉 학교의 도서실은 일반 공공도서실과는 다른 학교의 교육목표 달성을 위한 가장 기본적인 교육공간으로 자아학습의 장이다. 지식정보화시대를 맞이하여 자기주도적인 학생중심의 학습을 위한 독서활동과 다양한 자료의 활용이 없이는 불가능하며 학교 도서실을 이용하지 않고서는 그 효과를 기대하기 어렵다. 단지 장서수와 컴퓨터 등의 물리적인 수치가 더 이상 지표가 되어서는 안 되고 학생들의 정서함양 및 인격소양에 도움이 되는 독서공간을 통한 청소년기의 마음의 안정을 제공해 줄 수 있는 진정한 자아학습의 장으로 거듭나야 할 것이다. 본 고에서는 문화관광부의 문화로 아름답고 행복한 학교만들기 사업 가운데 선정된 도서공간의 재구축 사례에 대해 소개하고자 한다.
