National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) provides underpinning to boost international and domestic competitiveness in basic science and engineering (S&E) research. In 2012, NRF came up with the idea about implementing koreanized grant funding system and a NRF grant funding mechanism on basic research was applied to General Researcher program. The main components of the mechanism are 1) no final evaluation, instead intensive evaluation for next proposal submission, 2) no paper account report, instead reporting it online, 3) no lengthy final report, instead unloading a brief overview of research achievements. For successful establishment of the NRF grant funding mechanism, the quality and quantity-based quantitative guidelines of research achievement for various research areas are essential. In this study, we suggest 3 quantitative indexes and these quantitative guidelines provides a supplementary tool for researcher's capability review. These guidelines will be also useful to elevate the reliability and objectivity of peer review.

Lately, in public libraries, there are various service programs for child user by corresponding to importance of reading based education and also a variety of changes by accommodating family based cultural life style. Therefore there is a need for space planning based study on unit-data room. This study gives guide-line of space planning through categorizing of space plot and furniture lay-out in child data room. The researcher, as a first step, searched web sites of 29 data rooms of 26 libraries and summarized space plots and features of data rooms through in-person visits. Then the author made a categorization standard and did a general analysis of featured data rooms through multiple categorization steps. There are Basic Type, General Type, Book-Shelf Centered Type, Book-shelf Scattered type and Multi-Functional Type out of this categorization steps. In sum, six categorizing bases, dividing infant room from child room, space zonning, position of entrance, compactness of reading space, position of book-shelf and orientation of book-shelf will be important design standards for child data-room of future libraries and an effective guide-lines for other unit data-rooms.
