AB - This study empirically examined the impact of university library resource investment and resource usage on international research performance, focusing on large-scale universities. Using panel data from 2013 to 2024, descriptive statistical analysis and correlation analysis were conducted, followed by regression analysis to examine the relationships among variables and their structural relationships. The results indicate that university library resource investment increases resource usage, which in turn affects research performance, demonstrating a structural relationship among these variables. In particular, electronic resource acquisition costs were found to significantly increase the usage of commercial databases. Furthermore, commercial database usage was identified as a key variable positively affecting qualitative research performance. This study proposes policy recommendations to strengthen electronic resource-centered allocation, research support systems, performance-based resource allocation, and national-level scholarly resource sharing.
