ABSTRACT

As students’ digital literacy is emphasized, the demand for digital literacy education linked to school libraries is increasing. This study aims to analyze the professional development needs of teacher-librarians in the school library contexts. To achieve the objective, we derived areas and sub-learning objectives for digital literacy education that teacher-librarians should teach, and the questionnaire consisted of eight sub-areas and 18 learning objectives in three areas. Then, a survey was conducted, and a total of 756 teacher-librarians participated. The survey analysis was conducted using the t-test for importance and performance, the Borich needs calculation formula, and the Locus for Focus model. The results showed that there was a high demand for education in areas such as critical use of digital information and media, use of digital tools, creation using digital tools, reflection and practical participation, and the role of a facilitator for collaboration and active interaction. This professional development needs analysis has implications in that it provides basic data for developing teacher training programs for digital literacy education in school library contexts targeting teacher-librarians.
