The purpose of this study is to suggest how to activate the school library by examining how the users’ perceive teacher librarians. For this purpose, questionnaires and in-depth interviews were conducted for students in 10 middle and high schools in Seoul and Gyeonggi. Analyses lead to these findings: the image types of teacher librarians were classified as professional image, active image, and simple-work image. Multiple regression analysis was used to examine the effect of teacher librarians images on school library user satisfaction. In order to enhance the teacher librarians images and school library user satisfaction, it is necessary to strive to cultivate the active attitude and professionalism of teacher librarians. Also, as the frequency of use is lower, the teacher librarians’ images are viewed as simple work. Therefore, it is required to consider various reading events and reading education to raise the frequency of use. This study shows that the teacher librarians’ images have a positive effect on school library users’ satisfaction and suggests improvement plan for school library activation.

In a situation when domestic construction market is expected to be stagnant, Overseas Information System for Construction Engineering (OVICE) is operated to support the construction SMEs that advance to the global market. In this study, we aimed to improve the quality of information service by providing direction of information provision, by comparing expert questionnaire with information system user statistics. For statistical analysis of information systems, to improve the efficiency of statistical analysis that is difficult to prioritize, K-means clustering is used for more efficient analysis. As a result, analyzing the difference between the survey results and the information system statistics, we were able to identify improvement point of information provision in the system and important contents that were not highlighted during the survey.
