The new service of Korean public library, ASK_a service model suggests a new management practice in collaborative digital reference services. The model has three functions: input transaction, process transaction, and output transaction. The best form for input is the web form. The best form for process is a model with a hybrid type of public libraries(hierarchical and lateral type). The output suggests the archiving policy for gathering the query-answer data. The core of this model is providing an advanced information service to its users through cooperation with public libraries and external manpower.

To deal with a new environment of information technologies in the 21 Century, many libraries around the world have made great efforts to develop online knowledge-information services. In Korea, the National Library initiated an online knowledge-information services, in 2008. Through case studies and practical tests of online knowledge-information services, this article discusses plans for developing . The article explores definitions and types of online knowledge-information services, and analyzes online knowledge-information services in Denmark, Sweden, Finland, and Korea. Futhermore, practical reviews on the four services are conducted through 'question-answer' tests. As a result, the article discusses present and future tasks for improving .

We classify SNS into two categories and describe the merits and demerits of them. In order to combine the merits of each kind of SNS, we propose the social information sharing system for social network service using social content channel. It makes user share information faster and gather information more effectively. In this paper, we present AskMyFriend. It opens a channel aggregating users' interaction and recommends person who is most likely to know about topic of the question.

In this paper, we have desired and implemented of ASK modulator MMIC operating at 5.8 GHz for OBE used in AGPS(Automatic Gate Passing System). The proposed ASK modulator MMIC was implemented to apply a single supply voltage of 3 V to the drain in order to decrease ACP(Adjacent Channel Power). As a result, it is exhibits a broad linear modulation range from 0.7 V to 3 V and an On/off characteristic over 40 dB. The layouts of ASK modulator MMICs was designed and fabricated by using ETRI 0.57m MESFET library The chip size was 1.0mm $\times$x1.0mm.

The objective of this study was to promote the use of collaborative digital reference service by identifying factors that affect user satisfaction and developing improvement measures based on the findings. Data were collected via a questionnaire administered to the users of the "Ask a Librarian" service and a survey to analyze the frequency and patterns of usage of the service. The survey analyzed the associations among subjects' demographic characteristics, information seeking patterns, factors that influence user recognition, service satisfaction, and follow-up intentions via responses to the questionnaire. Rapidity answers in factors of service satisfaction is found that the high impact of positive (+). According to the result of statistical analysis, the priority of service improvement strategies of digital reference service were suggested.

This study analyses the questions and answers contained in the Knowledge Information Database of the collaborative digital reference service, 'Ask a librarian'. And based on the results of status of user requests, this study draws information usage behavior in the early stages of the service was derived. 1,124 Knowledge Information Database items out of 3,506 cases was analyzed by nine criterion. ① Number of questions and whether to be reference questions, ② Subject and keywords of the question, ③ Purpose of the question, ④ Type of question, ⑤ User's information request, ⑥ Information source and reference services provided by the librarian, ⑦ Number of days to answer, ⑧ Level of the participating library, ⑨ Question type by topic. As a results of analysis, first, users asked for reference questions from various topics as needed, rather than one from a similar topic at a time, but more than half of the total pure reference questions were from the field of library information science. Second, about 71.35% of users were using the 'Ask a librarian' service to recommend a list of information resources related to a particular topic or research problem, and there were also questions that required consultation on the reading situation. Third, the most preferred sources of information for users were bibliography, and in the case of online information sources, users did not relatively prefer them. Fourth, the number of days required to answer was able to confirm significant differences depending on the type of question and the level of the participating library. Fifth, 31.33% of the purpose of the general field question showed that were self-generated.

We surveyed the international and national spectrum & technical standardization trends of extremely adaptive frequency bands $57\sim64GHz$ that can provide 1 Gbps bit-rate ultra broadband service in above 30 GHz millimeter waves, and analyzed service scenarios and the characteristics of these bands, As a result of these analysises, 1 Gbps ASK channel bandwidth needs 2.5 GHz and total bandwidth calculated 7 GHz for dual FDD. finally, we proposed the nationally suitable allocation plan of millimeter wave bands $57\sim64GHz$.

서울시 120 다산콜센터는 서울시민의 민원문의 및 처리를 위해 도입된 전화 민원서비스이다. 공공 부분 정보제공 서비스 사업으로는 드물게 매우 활발하게 이용되고 그 역량을 인정받아 다수의 기관으로부터 벤치마킹(benchmarking)의 사례가 되어 왔다. 도서관계에서는 그동안 도서관 이용자의 정보 요구를 해결하기 위한 온라인 오프라인 참고정보서비스(Ask-a-librarian)를 시도하였으나 그 이용실적은 저조하였다. 이에 본 연구는 다산콜센터를 정보제공 서비스 측면에서 하나의 모범사례(Best Practice)로 판단하여 도서관계로 적용해 볼 수 있는 부분을 도출하여 제안해 보고자 한다.

This study analyses the questions addressed to the collaborative digital reference service run by the National Library of Korea. The data consist of 661 question entries to the 'Ask a Librarian' service during first 6 months in 2014. Each entry includes average 1.17 questions, and 77.82% of the total questions are real reference in nature. Questions are analyzed by classification division, context of the questioner, desired end product, activities of librarians, and the resources used to respond them. Each category is subdivided and analyzed in detail. Results revealed interesting findings and problems, and suggestions for further endeavor are provided.

This study aims to investigate the current state of digital reference services using electronic bulletin boards in Korean academic libraries and to suggest improvements. Through the examination of 205 academic library websites, 56 libraries were identified to use electronic bulletin for digital references. The digital reference service questions and responses from four libraries were further analyzed: the types of reference question, the structure and accuracy of answers, and digital reference completion time. The implications of this study for future research and practice lie in its provision of a systematic way to design practical guidelines for virtual reference services.
