ABSTRACT

This study analyzes the general status and major activities of the Friends of the Libraries, volunteers, and Library Foundations in the areas of the County of Los Angeles areas, including Los Angeles City areas, with a special regard to the participation of human resources outside from the public libraries themselves. It based on the researcher's visits to the public libraries and their branches and their friend groups in the areas including those of Los Angeles Public Library, La Crescenta Public Library, Glendale Public Library, and Library Foundation of Los Angeles; related materials given from those libraries and groups upon his visits; and other additional information from their homepages. It finalizes with some suggestions for the Korean library community related to the areas.
