This study is on capacity building and attitude to work of librarians in Edo State public libraries, Nigeria. Investigation was on the capacity building programs in the Edo State public libraries, the levels of librarians' awareness and participation in the programs, methods of building the capacity programs, influence on the librarians' attitudes to work and factors militating against the programs. Descriptive survey design was adopted for the study and the entire population of 23 librarians were used. Results indicate that the capacity building programs in the library include computer literacy skills, online public access catalogue (OPAC), Internet collection management and general trends in librarianship. The methods used in building the capacity programs in the library include conferences, workshops/seminars, on-the-job and internally organized courses. Respondents indicated very low level of participation in the programs and a negative influence of the programs on their attitudes to work. Various problems were identified as militating against the capacity building programs and solutions were suggested.

For a quick and accurate 3D modelling of a building, laser scanning data, digital maps, aerial photographs and satellite images should be fusioned. Moreover, library establishment according to a standard structure of a building and effective texturing method are required in order to determine the structure of a building. In this study, we made a standard library by categorizing Korean village forms and presented a model that can predict a structure of a building from a shape of the roof on an aerial photo image. We made an ortho image using the high-definition digital image and considerable amount of ground scanning point cloud and mapped this image. These methods enabled a more quick and accurate building modelling.

The purpose of this paper is to trace the architectural origin of the Bosung College Library (1935~37), which is currently used as Graduate School Building of Korea University. So far, numerous books have repeatedly described that the library was modelled on a Duke University library, but without any serious consideration. Through literature review, field-trip and archives investigation, this research discovered new critical facts concerning the origin of the building. First, Dong-Jin Park, the architect for Bosung College, saw a photograph of the Duke library in a Duke University catalog possessed by Chun Suk Auh, Professor of the college at that time. Second, the Duke library that he saw in the catalog, which might possibly be Bulletin of Duke University (Feb. 1931), is certainly the present Perkins Library (1930) in Duke University West Campus. Third, the architect probably referred not only to the library but also to other Duke buildings such as School of Medicine and The Union, of which photographs were also published impressively in the Bulletin. Although the Bosung College Library was inspired by the Duke buildings, however, it is undoubtedly a creative design work by the architect Park. Arguably, these findings broaden our view of Korean architectural history in the modernization period, and it is more than a confirmation of just one building's origin.

In terms of expanding the infrastructure of public libraries, building many small-size libraries is more efficiency than building a small number of big size libraries. Korean public libraries have been built in big-size in compare to the public libraries in the developed countries. This study aims to analyse why the majority of the Korean public libraries have been built in middle and large size and the floor space of 791 public libraries were examined. It was revealed that the average floor space of 791 public libraries is $2,495m^2$. The study aims to find what policy on library building should be considered to expand effectively the infrastructure of public libraries.

Recently, there has been a growing interest in the life cycle management field of buildings through the introduction of BIM. And as BIM application is expanded, BIM ordering guidelines and guidelines are becoming popular. Also, as diverse forms of buildings including super high-rise building have been generalized, attention to the importance of curtain walls that are advantageous for construction period shortening, building lighting and quality homogenization has been increasing. However, all BIM information from the design stage to the maintenance stage is not accumulated in stages. And the input information is not improved in proportion to the level of appearance of the BIM model. Also, current curtain wall designs rely heavily on curtain wall consulting firms or utilize accumulated data from existing processes. In this study, curtain wall components, shape and property information were derived by analyzing BIM guidelines and curtain wall construction standards to contribute to solving these problems. And the curtain wall smart BIM library which can be converted according to LOD(Level of Development) has been produced and its applicability has been verified. Through the library, curtain wall information can be systematically managed in the library from design to construction and maintenance. And the library will contribute to the expansion and activation of the BIM library market in the future.

The aim of this study is to analyze the transition of the building of Daegu City Library during the Japanese Colonial Period. To do this, the articles of newspaper and periodicals, books, official documents, official gazettes, statistics, publications of official history of Daegu City Library and research papers were widely collected and cross-checked with each others. As the result of this study, the precedent researches and official history publications related to Daegu City Library had some important errors including the date of the municipal ordinance for Daegu City Library, the first building of Daegu City Library and the date of the breaking-ground, completion and opening for the new building. It is assumed that these errors were generated from the shortage of bibliographic information and full-text databases at those time. At the end of this study, additional research about the history of Daegu City libraries during the Japanese Colonial Period were suggested.

Recent construction projects have been complex, larger and therefore BIM-based simulation has become more important. Through BIM simulation prior to the project improves the reliability and safety. Temporary plan is very important and all projects are an important foundation. However, a temporary plan to apply the BIM simulations are not going well. The reason for the building of a library well enough and the DB is not made. Therefore, a temporary plan of the library database is the correct formulation needed.

BIM library, as a systematic collection of BIM objects where the building information is stored, is a vital factor to construct the BIM based work environment. However, construction business is faced the problems relating BIM library such as the absence of the standard for establishing BIM library, the discontinuity of BIM library's compatibility and the lack of practice applicable BIM library. These problems cause the decreasing work efficiency and the recreating BIM model, by delivering inefficient information required in each stage and application field. The purpose of this study is to suggest the integrated management system for property information of BIM library in order to minimize the reworking and to manage information of each stage and application field when exchanging and sharing information. To achieve this, the BIM information classification, the criteria of property requirements for information exchange in BIM application field and the BIM library management system are developed. This study could contributes to ensuring the reliability and accuracy of results of BIM based analysis and to enhancing the speed of business process with sharing and exchanging building information utilizing a single BIM model.

Recently the architectural paradigm have been changing into eco-friendly architecture as an sustainable architecture. This social background encourages the development of various methods of building applicable for eco-friendly buildings in architectural design. Among them, passive architecture is an design approach for eco-friendly design that contrasts with technology-based methods through MEP for renewable energy. This study researches the Passive Architectural Design methodology with two points of view; Passive Architectural Design Techniques as a guideline, which defines the elements to consider for passive architecture, and the project of Sejong Municipal Public Library as a case, which is to analysis the architectural design process. The purpose of this study is to propose an eco-friendly public building based on the methodology which is suitable for passive architectural design. Finally, this study suggests that the eco-friendly public building design for passive architecture should consider from the early step of design process, such as concept and building form etc. What is important for the passive architecture is not how much building can produce the natural energy but how less building consumes it to maintain.
