Abstract

It is necessary to find a genre classification by reflecting the needs of users since a subject that makes up the highest proportion of books in the school library is fictions in literature and KDC cannot accept user's need to access fiction in school libraries. This study suggested the genre classification for fictions in school libraries through surveying classification of fictions in domestic and foreign libraries, and comparing between classification systems of online/offline bookstores, KDC and DDC. For developing the genre classification system, it is to collect genre terms for fictions, to extract 14 genre headings among them, and to assign the acronym of English genre terms as classification notation. For applying the newly developed genre classification, KDC number of one middle school library was converted as the 3 methods such as combination of KDC, genre term before 800 and only genre terms. This study could contribute to suggest the genre classification of fiction to reflect user needs and to overcome the limitation of hierachical classification in KDC.

학교도서관에서 가장 많은 장서를 차지하는 주제는 문학의 소설이며, 소설장서를 접근하기 위한 KDC의 현행 분류체계는 학교도서관에서 소설에 접근하려는 이용자의 정보요구에 부합하지 않으므로 이용자 요구를 반영한 장르 분류 방안이 모색되어야 한다. 이에 본고에서는 국내·외 국립 및 공공도서관의 소설장서 분류 현황을 조사하고, 온라인 및 오프라인 서점의 소설장서 분류체계와 KDC와 DDC의 소설 분류표를 비교하여 이를 바탕으로 학교도서관에서 소설장서의 장르 분류 방안을 모색하였다. 우선, 소설장서를 위한 장르분류표를 개발하기 위해, 소설을 위한 장르 용어를 수집하고, 이중에서 14개의 장르 표목을 도출하여 영어 표목의 두문자를 분류기호로 할당하였다. 새롭게 개발한 장르분류표의 적용 방안으로 중등학교 도서관의 KDC 번호를 대상으로 KDC와 혼합 적용, 장르기호를 선치해 적용, 장르기호만 적용하는 세 가지를 제시하였다. 본 연구는 KDC에서 계층 분류의 한계를 극복하고 이용자의 요구를 반영한 소설장서의 장르 분류 방안을 모색하였다는데 의의가 있다.
