Abstract

The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of undergraduate citation behavior and to measure the contribution which an academic library makes in the academic writing of students. Citations in 80 student papers submitted in the academic paper competition was analyzed for types of items cited and the number of items in the library collection, etc. The findings indicate: 1) the level of undergraduates' citation knowledge is very low, 2) undergraduates prefer web resources (44.9%) to such academic resources as books, journal articles, theses or dissertation, and 3) undergraduates find academic resources in their academic library. Upon these findings, this study suggests that academic library staff should intervene to enhance undergraduate academic writing skills and to develope of educational material, including how to search for and cite reliable resources.

본 연구의 목적은 학술적 글쓰기에서 대학생들의 자료 인용 행태를 분석함으로써 대학생들의 자료에 대한 인식과 대학도서관 자료의 활용 정도를 측정하여 도서관의 성과를 측정하는 것이다. 서울 소재 대학의 학기말 보고서 공모전에 제출된 80편의 보고서에 인용된 자료의 유형과 도서관 소장여부를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 대학생들의 논문 인용에 대한 지식 수준은 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 웹 정보에 대한 의존도(44.9%)가 높았지만 다른 유형의 자료, 즉 단행본, 학술지, 학위논문 등의 경우에는 대학도서관의 활용도가 높게 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 본 연구는 대학도서관이 대학생들의 학술적 글쓰기 능력신장을 위해 수업활동에 적극적으로 참여하고 인용과 참고문헌에 대한 효과적인 교육자료를 개발하는데 힘쓸 것을 제안한다.
