Abstract

During the last decade, increasing use of technology that facilitates information access has changed academic library services. The emergence of information commons is one of the key changes. Most previous studies on information commons have focused on its conception and role. Whereas, considering information commons as a spatial service, this study aims to examine the influence of information commons on user traffic patterns within the library and perception of the library. As the information commons grew into main library service space and facility, it is necessary to explore what influences information commons have on the behavior and recognition of users. Two methods were used. First, observation method was used to record traffic pattern and user behavior. Second, twenty undergraduates and twelve graduates were interviewed regarding the use and recognition of the information commons and the library. The results of the study show that the traffic patterns were different between undergraduate students and graduate students; the location and structure of facilities influences their movement and behaviors; and the recognition of information commons tends to affect the perception of the entire library. The findings may help librarians improve and plan for library spaces to meet user demands.

Abstract

The study analyzes mission statements of Library and Information Science schools in the United States. It aims to reveal identities of LIS by Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). The study examines the strategies or stereotypes of academic mission statements in LIS as a genre. Mission statements are analyzed using discourse analysis to find common ideology using agency, modality, and lexical analysis. A comparative analysis of two mission statements is also conducted within discursive practices to reveal characteristics of two schools. This study has value in that it provides implications for other ideological discussions applicable to LIS.

본 연구는 온라인 과학기술정보 서비스 품질에 대한 기대수준과 성과에 대한 지각수준이 이용자 만족도와 충성도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 한국과학기술정보연구원에서 제공하고 있는 온라인 과학기술정보 서비스인 NDSL의 서비스 품질 측정 모형인 NDSLQual을 사용하여 조사 및 분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 첫째, 일곱 가지 기대 요인 가운데 신뢰성, 편리성, 시스템사용성, 정보품질의 네 가지 요인이 이용자 만족도에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 일곱 가지 기대 요인 가운데 충성도에 유의한 부(-)의 영향을 미치는 서비스문제해결을 제외한 신뢰성, 편리성, 시스템사용성, 대응성, 보안, 정보품질의 여섯 가지 요인은 모두 충성도에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 일곱 가지 성과에 대한 지각 요인 가운데 신뢰성, 편리성, 정보품질의 세 가지 요인이 이용자 만족도에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 일곱 가지 성과에 대한 지각 요인 가운데 신뢰성, 편리성, 정보품질의 세 가지 요인이 충성도에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 연구 결과, 일곱 가지 서비스 요인 가운데 정보품질, 신뢰성, 편리성에 대한 기대수준과 성과에 대한 지각수준이 NDSL의 이용자 만족도와 충성도를 높일 수 있는 공통 요인으로 나타났다.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to reveal the influence of the expectation and perceived performance of the online science & technology information service quality on user satisfaction and royalty. To achieve this goal, we use the NDSLQual model to measure the quality of NDSL service. The results were as follows: First, among seven expectation factors, four factors (reliability, convenience, system usability and information quality) had a positive effect on the user satisfaction. Second, while service recovery had a negative effect on the royalty, the other six factors (reliability, convenience, system usability, responsiveness, security and information quality) had a positive effect on the royalty. Third, among seven perceived performance factors, three factors (reliability, convenience and information quality) had a positive effect on the user satisfaction. Fourth, among seven perceived performance factors, three factors (reliability, convenience and information quality) had a positive effect on the royalty. As a result, information quality, reliability and convenience of the expectation and perceived performance are common factors influencing user satisfaction and royalty.
