This study purposed to discover whether or not academic libraries reflect these changing roles. We selected K University as the research target and surveyed user satisfaction of materials, staff services, facilities, electronic devices, media, and so on. The research findings are as follows: 1) the frequency of library visits of University K was on the high side, 2) the primary purpose of using the academic library was associated with learning or reading, therefore, the most used library spaces were related to that, 3) the most used library materials were 'general books', the most unused were 'reference books', 4) the most preferred way to obtain needed materials when failing to find wanted materials was 'Contact librarian'. A similar phenomenon occurred in terms of facility use, 5) university K's users were usually satisfied with the loan policy, 6) the rate of users who don't know whether there is user education was very high, the rate of users who have no experience with user education was extremely low.

본 연구의 목적은 학술적 글쓰기에서 대학생들의 자료 인용 행태를 분석함으로써 대학생들의 자료에 대한 인식과 대학도서관 자료의 활용 정도를 측정하여 도서관의 성과를 측정하는 것이다. 서울 소재 대학의 학기말 보고서 공모전에 제출된 80편의 보고서에 인용된 자료의 유형과 도서관 소장여부를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 대학생들의 논문 인용에 대한 지식 수준은 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 웹 정보에 대한 의존도(44.9%)가 높았지만 다른 유형의 자료, 즉 단행본, 학술지, 학위논문 등의 경우에는 대학도서관의 활용도가 높게 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구는 대학도서관이 대학생들의 학술적 글쓰기 능력신장을 위해 수업활동에 적극적으로 참여하고 인용과 참고문헌에 대한 효과적인 교육자료를 개발하는데 힘쓸 것을 제안한다.
