인문과학자의 연구진행특성과 도서관 : 정보요구와 정보관리의 제 현상에 관한 분석 = Research Characteristics of Humanities Scholars and the Library

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The main intention of this paper is to look into the matters affecting the library that deals with the humanities. Based on comprehensive literature survey and analysis, information needs of scholars in the humanities and the role of the library as an information center are reconsidered in some detail.
In fact, the behavioral research on scientists and social scientist in their scholarly communication and use of libraries has long been of interest to those in library and information science field. The research results have implied much on library operations and services. Types of materials acquired, use of subject specialist system, and better secondary services are some of the examples affected by the findings.
Similar research efforts on the humanities began to be regularly reported in the 70 's. They treat mainly the difference between the aims, methods and styles of research people in the humanities as distinct from other disciplines. This disparate nature of knowledge and its communication suggests accordingly different approaches in various library policies and decision-making.
The subject of this paper, therefore, is not the content of scholarship in the humanities, but information transfer. Special concern is on storage, retrieval and dissemination of information. Library as one of the most important information transfer institution comes naturally in the center of the subject. General characteristics of the humanities studies are observed first. Information needs of the scholars are analyzed along with their communication and research processes in the next section. What follows is the materials they need. These are reviewed in terms of quantity, quality, life span, and other aspects. Outstanding difficulties and problems that the humanities library face are brought out with some suggested ways to improve the situation. Collection management, inter-library cooperation, and secondary services (bibliographies, indexes, abstracts) are areas that still remain to be investigated for improvement.
