A Study on Improving a Continuing Education for Public Librarians: Focusing on Privatized Public Libraries
This study aims to make suggestions on how to effectively provide continuing education for librarians in privatized public libraries. For this end, the study examined concepts and importance of continuing education. It then investigated a current status of education/training procedures provided by Librarian Training Division of the National Library of Korea, and continuing education programs for public librarians implemented by primary regional libraries. It also analyzed continuing education programs of library associations in the U.S. and the U.K. Based on these analyses, the study conducted a survey for a sample of librarians in privatized public libraries, identified problems of continuing education for them, and made recommendations for its improvement. 키워드: 위탁공공도서관, 사서, 계속교육, 재교육, 공공도서관 privatized public library, librarian, continuing education, reeducation, public library * ** 이화여자대학교 문헌정보학과 대학원(feelingpj@ewha.ac.kr) (제1저자) 이화여자대학교 문헌정보학과 교수(syly@ewha.ac.kr) (교신저자) 논문접수일자 : 2014년 3월 3일 논문심사일자 : 2014년 3월 3일 게재확정일자 : 2014년 3월 17일 한국비블리아학회지, 25(1): 363-395, 2014.

Outsourcing: A Strategic Partnership
Outsourcing, an established practice in the business world and for selected library functions, is now being used increasingly for routine copy cataloging. When done well, it is a strategic partnership involving the library, materials vendor, bibliographic utility, and local system vendor. All partners contribute to and benefit from the relationship, which leverages the strength of each participant for the benefit of all. The library serves as lead partner, with responsibility for creating the partnership and for ensuring that all parties comply with the terms to which they have agreed. Ongoing evaluation by the library and modification as needed to enhance the effectiveness of the partnership will assure its long term viability.
