ABSTRACT

As the types of university students are diversified due to the increase in the university enrollment rate of the disabled, universities are striving to provide support in academics, education, and research, as well as to offer an equitable educational environment. University libraries, which are central to education and research, are also designing and providing various services to ensure the information access authority and learning rights of users with various types of disabilities due to the increase in their numbers. In this study, a comparative research was conducted on national universities in South Korea and Japan to examine the services for the disabled in the university library website. A total of 22 national university library websites in South Korea and 45 in Japan were selected, and a status survey was carried out in four areas (website environment, resource search environment, user services, and other services). Based on the findings, suggestions are made to explore ways to improve the services for the disabled in the website of the library of Korea National University was sought and proposed.
