본 연구는 사서교육전공 학생들의 석사과정 중 학습경험이 어떤 의미와 본질을 지녔는지 탐색하는데 목적이 있다. 연구 목적 달성을 위해 K대학교 석사과정을 졸업한지 2년 이내인 전공생 12명을 대상으로 도입 질문, 소개 질문, 주요 질문, 마무리 질문의 4가지 종류로 정한 개방형 질문 방식의 포커스 그룹 인터뷰를 진행한 뒤 답변 내용을 분석하여, 석사과정에서의 학습경험에 대해 9개의 주제, 35개의 범주, 104개의 개념을 도출하였다. 각 영역별 주요 분석 결과를 살펴보면, 석사과정 진학 동기는 임용고시 응시를 위한 조건인 사서교사 자격 취득을 위해서가 가장 많았으며, 학습경험에 대한 만족도는 10점 만점 중 평균 7.66점이었다. 또한 석사과정 동안 가장 불만족스러웠던 부분은 학교도서관 운영과 사서교사 임용고시에 도움 되지 않는 교과목과 수업 내용이었기 때문에, 향후 발전을 위해서는 반드시 개선이 필요하다고 응답하였다.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the Korean situation of education for librarianship by comparing library education in the United States of America, the United Kingdom and Korea. The qualifications of librarians, educational institutions and the present trends of education for librarianship in the three countries are described and compared. It was not intended to find out similarities and differences as the three countries share no similar cultural and historical backgrounds. Compared with the education of the two countries, Korea has more ways to qualify librarians, more library schools, and lower academic levels for librarians. Library Associations or Institutes of the U. S. A. and the U. K. are involved in library education by accrediting library schools or library school curricula, but the Korean Library Association has nothing to do with library education. In case of present trends in library education, Korean institutions seem to lag behind in coping actively with the changes occurring in the modern society. Based on the findings, some suggestions are recommended.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility of using chatbots as a school library educational tool. In order to achieve the purpose of the study, 116 librarian teachers first investigated the types and contents of education conducted in the school library setting and the perception of chatbots there. In addition, 15 librarians (five elementary, five middle, and five high school) were asked to complete a structured questionnaire after using Google's Bard, Microsoft's Bing, and OpenAI's Nova to find out if it is possible to use chatbots in school library education. As a result, user and reading education chatbots were found to be common in school libraries, and 99% of librarians knew about them in some detail. However, the average chatbot performance by area was 2.9 out of 5 (2.6 points being the lowest). Nevertheless, chatbots are being developed utilizing deep learning methodologies and have excellent performance, and are very effective for content-based library education through problem-solving activities.

국제 학교도서관 기준에서는 사서와 교사의 자격을 갖춘 학교사서를 학교도서관에 배치하도록 하고 있다. 그리고 교수자로서의 역할 수행을 위하여 보조직원의 지원을 받도록 하고 있다. 국내의 경우 사서와 사서교사의 자격 요건의 차이에도 불구하고 학교도서관에 둘 수 있는 인적자원은 교사의 자격 요건을 갖추지 않은 사서가 포함되어 있다. 또한 사서교사와 사서의 직무가 명확하게 설정되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 도서관 기준과 학교도서관 관련법에서 정한 자격 요건이 상충하기 때문에, 사서직의 전문성과 사회적 위상을 약화시키는 결과를 초래하고 있다. 학교도서관에 사서교사가 배치되어 있지 않다는 사실은 학교도서관 교육 기능의 불완전성, 교육 서비스의 불공평성을 극복해야 한다는 절심함을 안겨주고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 사서교사의 교육주제 전문사서로서의 정체성을 강화할 수 있도록 자격 제도를 더욱 강화할 필요가 있다. 또한 학교도서관에 두는 인적자원의 유형을 사서교사와 준전문가 그리고 자원봉사자로 구분함으로써 자격에 대한 올바른 사회적 인식의 토대를 형성하여야 한다. 특히 '경영자, 교수자, 정보서비스, 리더, 협동, 파트너'의 틀 안에서 자격 유형별 직무 분석이 이루어져야 한다.

교사와 학부모 그리고 학생은 사서교사를 수업에 참여하지 않는 자료 관리자로 인식하고 있다. 따라서 사서교사는 직업 기능과 전문직의 특성을 충족하지 못한 채 존재감이 매우 허약한 실정이다. 이것은 사서교사 배치를 외면한 학교도서관 정책과 사서교사와 사서의 자격과 역할을 동일시하는 법과 제도 때문이다. 그러나 근본적인 원인은 교수자의 자질을 갖춘 유능한 사서교사를 양성하기 위한 맞춤형 프로그램을 갖고 있지 않은 배경학문 공동체의 방관자적 태도이다. 따라서 사서교사의 직업적 위상 강화를 위해서는 사서직 공동체가 사서교사를 교수매체 전문가로 인정하고, 다양한 교육과정을 개발하여야 한다. 또한 사서교사 스스로 개인 역량 개발을 위한 자기평가를 활성화하고 전문 단체의 활동력을 강화할 필요가 있다.

This study was undertaken to meet more fully the demands for improved training of library personnel, occasioned by the rapidly changing roles and functions of libraries as they try to adapt to the vast social, economic and technological changes currently in progress in the Korean society. The specific purpose of this research is to develop a standard curriculum at the batchelor's level that will properly equip the professional personnel in Korean libraries for the changes confronting them. This study started with the premise that to establish a sound base for curriculum development, it was necessary first to determine what concepts, knowledge, and techniques are required for professional library personnel to perform it at an optimal level of efficiency. Explicitly, it was felt that for the development of useful curricula and courses at the batchelor's level, a prime source of knowledge should be functional behaviours that are necessary in the job situation. To determine specifically what these terminal performance behaviours should be so that learning experience provided could be rooted in reality, the decision was reached to use a systems approach to curriculum development, which is an attempt to break the mold of traditional concepts and to approach interaction from an open, innovative, and product-oriented perspective. This study was designed to: (1) identify what knowledge and techniques are required for professional library personnel to perform the job activities in which they are actually engaged, (2) to evaluate the educational needs of the knowledge and techniques that the professional librarian respondents indicate, and (3) to categorise the knowledge and techniques into teaching subjects to present the teaching subjects by their educational importance. The main data-gathering instrument for the study, a questionnaire containing 254 items, was sent to a randomly selected sample of library school graduates working in libraries and related institutions in Korea. Eighty-three librarians completed and returned the questionnaire. After analysing the returned questionnaire, the following conclusions have been reached: (A) To develop a rational curriculum rooted in the real situation of the Korean libraries, compulsory subjects should be properly chosen from those which were ranked highest in importance by the respondents. Characters and educational policies of, and other teaching subjects offered by, the individual educational institution to which a given library school belongs should also be taken into account in determining compulsory subjects. (B) It is traditionally assumed that education in librarianship should be more concerned with theoretical foundations on which any solution can be developed than with professional needs with particulars and techniques as they are used in existing library environments. However, the respondents gave the former a surprisingly lower rating. The traditional assumption must be reviewed. (C) It is universally accepted in developing library school curricula that compulsory subjects are concerned with the area of knowledge students generally need to learn and optional subjects are concerned with the area to be needed to only those who need it. Now that there is no such clear demarcation line provided in librarianship, it may be a realistic approach to designate subjects in the area rated high by the respondents as compulsory and to designate those in the area rated low as optional. (D) Optional subjects that were ranked considerably higher in importance by the respondents should be given more credits than others, and those ranked lower might be given less credits or offered infrequently or combined. (E) A standard list of compulsory and optional subjects with weekly teaching hours for a Korean library school is presented in the fourth chapter of this report.

Virtual Reality (VR) is one of the core components of the fourth industrial revolution as a technology that makes the virtual world feel as if it is real. VR is being used in various fields such as entertainment, advertisement, education, medical care, training, sports, and tourism, as well as providing contents for such things as games and videos. Libraries are already looking for ways to utilize VR from various angles, such as operating experiential programs. The purpose of this thesis is to develop and propose a VR-based library user education program. In order to achieve the purpose of the study, we analyzed previous studies from a theoretical perspective to find a way to construct a user education program, and also to derive possible implications based on examples of countries such as the United States and Korea that are already introducing and applying VR technology to library services. Therefore, the user education program proposed in this study can be used as a basic building block when many libraries want to develop VR-based programs in the future.

The fusion of learning, information, and technology presents dynamic challenges for all librarians, educators and students in 21st century libraries and schools. At the heart of this fusion is the growth of a pervasive, integrated information environment characterized by vast quantities of digital content, open choice, collaborative and participatory digital spaces, and the transition of the web environments from consumption of information to creation of information. This environment heralds important opportunities for librarians and teachers to rethink, re-imagine and recreate a dynamic approaches to information literacy instruction. Drawing on an extensive body of research undertaken through the Center for International Scholarship in School Libraries (CISSL), and published research on both information literacy and constructivist learning, this paper provides a critical examination of the current status of information literacy: its multiple conceptualizations, competing models, viewpoints, and its operationalizations in educational and library environments. The paper will challenge information literacy practices which center on simplistic, reductionist approaches to information literacy development, and the separation of information process and knowledge content. In particular it will address apparent contradictions in espoused conceptions of information literacy which revolve around "knowledge": knowledge construction, critical thinking, problem solving and the development of knowledgeable people; and information literacy practices which revolve around "information": a predominant focus on skills of access and evaluation of resources and with less attention given to engaging with found information to develop deep knowledge and understanding. The paper will present a series of challenges for moving forward with information literacy agendas in libraries and schools.

Libraries are still conservative in their approach or practice of providing various services for the unspecified majority of visitors attending these institutions. It is very apparent that libraries are not actively trying to increase the interest and participation of users by applying the various angles or elements associated with gamification. By its very nature, gamification is the application of game-playing elements such as point scoring, peer competition, team work, score tables, and such used to motivate participants and make them more engaged with the subject matter. In areas such as education, marketing, and exercise, the implementation of gamification techniques is actively taking place in order to maximum participation by taking advantage of uncertainties or the competitive nature that many people have with the setting of goals. In this study, four libraries that have applied gamification are analyzed to understand how and to what degree gamification has been applied. Broken down into four different elements, this includes: Point, Reward, Leaderboards & Competition, Self-expression & Achievement. By focusing on the results of this analysis, gamification measures that can be applied to other libraries are specifically proposed. The overall results of this study will provide useful guidance and potential plans for libraries seeking to increase the number of users by using gamification to increase user participation and/or satisfaction with additional library services.
