조직 커뮤니케이션은 하나의 사회적 체제인 조직에서 구성원의 정보전달 행위를 통해 공동의 목표를 달성하는 과정이며 조직구조의 한 요소이다. 목표달성의 정도와 서비스의 질을 포함하는 효과성, 만족도 등은 조직성과로 표현될 수 있으며 도서관 조직성과로 간주될 수 있는 서비스 품질은 LibQUAL+™ 모형을 통해 측정될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 조직 커뮤니케이션을 공공도서관 조직성과를 향상시키는 조직요소로 LibQUAL+™ 모형에 따른 서비스 품질을 조직성과로 설정하고 이들의 관계를 통해 커뮤니케이션의 특성이 차원별 서비스 품질에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보는 것을 그 목표로 한다. 이를 위해 수도권에 위치한 8개 공공도서관의 사서 및 이용자 대상 설문조사를 통한 통계적 분석을 시행한다. 연구결과 도서관의 상향, 수평, 하향 커뮤니케이션은 품질의 3개 차원(서비스의 감성적 차원, 정보통제 차원, 도서관 공간 차원)에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

Abstract

Organizational communication is an element of organizational structure formation; it is also a process of achieving organizational goals through the information sharing among the staff members in the organization as a social system. Organizational performance is a multidimensional concept composed of efficiency and effectiveness and satisfaction. Effectiveness implies service quality and the degree of goal achievement. Service quality by using the LibQUAL+™ model can be considered as an objective performance measure for libraries. This study aims to identify the effect of organizational communication in public libraries on service quality as a performance measure using the LibQUAL+™ model through statistical analyses of the results from questionnaire surveys of librarieans and users in 8 public libraries in Seoul metropolitan area. The result says the characteristics of organizational communication(upward, horizontal, downward communication) affects the three elements in the library service quality, such as affect of service, information control and library as place.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to identify the usefulness of Weblog genre analysis in knowledge creation within an organization where communications are occurred frequently among the employees with information and communication technologies (ICTs). Knowledge creation is essential to achieve competitive advantage in today’s knowledge-oriented working environments. There has been huge investment on knowledge management systems to achieve such advantages. It is, however, widely recognized that distributed knowledge management systems often fail due to the different social contexts across the sub-organizations where the local information systems are deployed. It is important to coordinate such social gaps across the sub-organizations to achieve better advantages. Given that Weblogs users often feel a shared social norm, Weblogs play a positive role of narrowing the social gaps. This paper argues that the genre analysis of Weblogs could provide important clues to narrow the social gaps existed across the sub-organizations within an organization. Hence, such taxonomical practice may be a solution for the high rate of failure in knowledge management system implementations in an organization. This paper uses the theory of organizational knowledge creation (Nonaka & Takeuchi, 1995) and social construction of technology (SCOT) approach (Bijker, 1995) to compare the socialized with the non-socialized integration of distributed information systems. The findings of this research provide a useful framework for better implementing knowledge management practices especially in distributed working environments.

Abstract

This exploratory study describes the social bookmarking perceptions and behaviors of students in university courses. Although an emerging discussion regarding the value of social bookmarking tools exists, how users adopt tools in practice is not well known. Students were asked to utilize the bookmarking tool del.icio.us to store information relating to course projects. They were also asked to comment how they employed del.icio.us for course projects. The study analyzed student perceptions and behaviors when using social bookmarking tools for university coursework. The study noted that the use of tags, notes, and networking within these social bookmarking tools remained less active and social bookmarking services in Web 2.0 as shared collaboration, shared communities, and vertical search were less present. Utilizing social bookmarking tools to facilitate personal information management includes the activities of information use, information re-use, and mobility.
