ABSTRACT

This study was conducted to prepare a development strategy to respond to the increase in demand for public library services and infrastructure due to the rapid urban expansion and population growth of H city, as part of a basic study for establishing a mid- to long-term development plan for the H city library. Therefore, by analyzing the infrastructure and operation status of the H city public library, we first tried to derive a direction for preparing a strategy for the development of the H city public library. In addition, a survey was conducted on residents of H city to analyze the perceptions and needs of library users and non-users, and to identify factors of satisfaction and dissatisfaction with existing services and facilities. By comprehensively analyzing the results of these studies, a specific implementation strategy reflecting the various needs and expectations of the residents was proposed, and a strategic direction for the development of the H city public library was suggested. In particular, the goal was to improve the quality of library services and infrastructure so that the H city library could establish itself as an important educational and cultural space in the community. The results of this study will contribute to the development of the H city public library to actively respond to changes in the social, cultural, and technological environment, thereby driving the mid-to long-term development of the H city library.
