ABSTRACT

While attention has been paid to ‘core information poor’ with low-level information literacy, public libraries are to be social agencies to set policies, and are to provide them with cultural experiences and services as well. In this regard, this study intends to shed light on the current status of public library services for such ‘information-poor’ as the urban poor, the handicapped, and the aged in Busan metro area. Exploring the statistical data, observations and interviews, the study attempts to illustrate current status and trends. It, specifically, focuses on the following characteristics of information service strategies: types of services provided; infra-structure including facilities and specialized collection; and, barriers and limitation of library and information use.
