ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to find a new role of the small libraries in the community as the center of the community through an investigation of the case of Atti library in Daegu. To achieve the study purpose, in-depth interview was conducted with the original members of the Atti library. The interview data were analyzed using a qualitative method. According to the study results, human networks of the community were solidified and expanded through the Atti library. Furthermore, the community people could have more confidence in solving the problems of the community and the community could grow further through the Atti library. The small libraries should think about their new roles as the center of the community beyond the role of the public libraries.
