The reading culture promotion for the disabled is a key task of library which minimizes the level of information poverty, and improves the living standards of the people. In order to address the promotional methods, this study adopts a frame from a reading culture promotion policy, and analyzes national and international library services for the disabled. In results, the current library services for the disabled are mainly based on 'building appropriate reading environments' and guaranteeing 'equal reading opportunities'. However, campaigns or tasks targeting the disabled which makes reading a way of life are insufficient. This study, therefore, suggests 'reading education', 'reading therapy', 'user-oriented program development' to make reading a way of life. Library promoting strategies can also be useful in campaign of reading activities for the disabled.

In the midst of the crisis in the publishing industry, the library was brought up as a facilitator. However, the premise is that libraries cannot revive the publishing industry simply as a catalyst for promoting reading culture. Rather, the publishing industry presented an expanded and regenerative system of publishing contents as a model for the promotion of publishing by embracing the active production and demand of readers based on libraries. In that process, we designed an independent publishing platform in the form of library/publishing collaboration (cooperation) and proposed a distribution and reproduction model.
