ABSTRACT

In this study, we analyze the agenda setting and policy making process of the establishment of Gyeonggido Cyber Library, which has played an important role for development of public libraries in Gyeonggido since its launching, based on Kingdon’s policy streams model. According to the model, policy formation is described as the result from the convergence of the three streams, such as problem, policy and politics streams. When these streams converge on a specific time point, a policy window is created so that the issues become policy agenda. At this moment, policy entrepreneurs propose their alternatives, which have been prepared already, and try to pass it through the window. We identify coupling of the streams in the policy window and the role of policy entrepreneurs in the process of agenda setting and selection of alternatives of Gyeonggido Cyber Library policy. Suggestions are provided based on the analysis for public policy formation in public libraries domain.
