공공도서관의 학습조직 특성 연구 = A Study on the Characteristics of Learning Organizations in Public Libraries

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study analyzed the characteristics of the learning organization according to its characteristics, the operation method and size of each public library. In addition, the service quality of public libraries was investigated so that it was also analyzed the correlation between the characteristics of the learning organization and the quality of the service. To achieve the research objectives, 83 librarians and 343 users across seven public libraries in South Korea’s metropolitan areas were surveyed. The investigation covered various dimensions of learning organizations: creating continuous learning opportunities, promoting inquiry and dialogue, encouraging collaboration and team learning, creating systems to capture and share learning, empowering people toward a collective vision, connecting the organization to its environment, and providing strategic leadership for learning. Also it was investigated aspects of service quality: affect of service, information control, and library as place. As a result of the study, for the learning organization characteristics, more than 3.4 out of 5 were qualified to have foundation of learning organizations. One attempted to categorize according to its operational method and size and compare learning organization differences between public libraries, however it was not easy to see the clear differences. Therefore it was judged that there might be another unidentified factor which gives an affect on learning organization. Furthermore, it was found that there was a positive correlation between learning organization traits and service quality. This study might signify by looking into how the learning organization, which is one of the post-bureaucratic organizational traits, appears in public libraries.

본 연구는 공공도서관별 학습조직 특성과 운영방식 및 규모에 따른 학습조직 특성을 분석하였다. 또 공공도서관의 서비스 품질을 조사하였으며 학습조직 특성과 서비스 품질 간 상관관계를 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 본 연구는 한국의 수도권에 위치한 공공도서관 7곳의 사서 83명, 이용자 343명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 학습조직 특성인 학습 기회 창출, 탐구 및 대화 촉진, 협력 및 팀 학습 독려, 학습 체계 구축, 권한 위임, 조직과 환경의 연계, 학습 전략적 리더십과 서비스 품질 차원인 서비스의 감성적 차원, 정보통제 차원, 도서관 장소 차원을 조사하였다. 연구 결과, 학습조직 각 요인들은 5점 만점에 3.4점 이상으로 공공도서관들은 대체로 학습조직 기반을 갖춘 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 공공도서관별 학습조직 차이를 운영방식 및 규모에 따라 집단화하여 비교하고자 하였으나 이는 쉽지 않았다. 이에 따라 학습조직에 영향을 주는 다른 요인이 있을 것으로 판단되었다. 이에 더하여 학습조직 특성과 서비스 품질은 정적(+) 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 탈관료제 조직 특성 중 하나인 학습조직 특성이 공공도서관에서 어떻게 나타나는지 살펴보았다는 데 의의가 있다.
