This study determines the implementation status of the improvement being made to Korean university libraries. An e-mail survey was conducted targeting 24 Korean university libraries. Conclusions after analysing the re- sponses of the survey were as follows:(1) 24 university libraries implemented 88 different methods of operating their libraries. In other words each library implemented an average 3.67 different methods operating.(2) Twelve universities initiated their improvement schemes in 2008, ten universities initiated their improvement schemes in 2007, nine universities initiated their improvement schemes in 2005, eight universities initiated their improve- ment schemes in 2010 and seven universities initiated their improvement schemes in 2009. Most university libraries implemented their improvement after 2005.(3) Most university libraries improvement schemes entailed online tours, special events, personal customized services, and SMS services.
