초록

본 연구는 이용자 편의를 목적으로 기존의 DDC 분류를 대체하거나 보완하는 주제어 기반 분류를 적용하고 있는 미국 공공도서관의 사례를 분석하여 그 효과와 문제점을 논의하고, 이러한 시도에 대한 향후 국내에서의 논의에 필요한 시사점을 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여 주제어 기반 분류를 사용하는 대표적인 미국 공공도서관 사례 11개를 선정하여 새로운 분류법을 적용하게 된 배경과 과정을 구체적으로 분석하고, 현재 사용되고 있는 주제어 기반 분류의 유형을 구분하여 그 실례를 시행 시기, 시행 이유, 장서 규모, 적용 범위, 적용 과정 등으로 나누어 분석하였다. 이러한 분석의 결과, 주제어 기반 분류는 도서관 이용과 운영면에서 긍정적인 효과를 보이고 있었으나 동시에 여러 가지 한계를 가지고 있다는 결론을 얻게 되었다. 이러한 분석을 바탕으로 향후 국내에서의 논의에 필요한 시사점을 도서관계의 수용성, 국내 여건에 대한 고려, 적절한 유형 선택, 사서의 전문직에 미치는 영향, 주제명표 개발의 필요성, 그리고 이용자 지원의 필요성 등으로 나누어 제안하였다.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the word based classification used in U.S. public libraries and their implications for Korean libraries. For this purpose, eleven U.S. public libraries using the word based classification system were selected and the specific classification types, their motivation, collection size, methods used in the conversion from DDC, and pros and cons were examined. The result of the analysis shows that the word based classification system may be categorized into the two types: Dewey-free or Dewey-lite and its application methods are different case by case. As a result, the positive impacts and implied problems of the word based classification system for library use and library operation were examined. In addition, the new system's implications on the Korean libraries were also discussed.
