The world has comparatively little knowledge of the Republic of
Korea, and only in recent years has the West acquired a knowledge
of Korean society and culture. So too, Korean librarianship has
been a largely obscure topic. There has been little previous effort
to inform the international library community about libraries and
librarianship in Korea, and even interested scholars have had
trouble obtaining information. This book is the first informative,
comprehensive guide to the topic. The volume describes the present
state of library development and library services available at the
various types of libraries in the Republic of Korea, along with the
historical backgrounds of the country and librarianship. Also
included are discussions of the activities related to bibliographic
control, professional associations and training, and library
automation. By examining the operations of some representative
libraries, the book further demonstrates how Korean librarianship
is a mix of American librarianship and Chinese and Japanese
cultural influences.
