Abstract

It is important to plan and operate various training programs at the national level to develop librarians' job performance expertise and future-oriented capabilities. The purpose of this study was to examine the possibility of introducing a librarian learning community as an training program at a professional education and training institution and to suggest an appropriate operation method. To this end, research was conducted using the following contents and methods: 1) theoretical discussion on program operation such as the concept, operation stages, and types of a librarian learning community through a review of related literature; 2) exploring the possibility of operating a librarian learning community through pilot operation and derivation of implications, 3) proposal of a librarian learning community operation model. This study reviewed the librarian learning community operating model through participant observation and participant opinion collection during the pilot operation process to minimize confusion in the early stages of implementation, and also presented an operational roadmap and support system for the successful establishment of the program in the future. There is a need to further develop the librarian learning community operating model presented in this study through implementation and empirical analysis over the next several years. However, the results of this study will also be useful as an initial operating model for a learning community for professional education and training in other fields.

사서의 직무수행 전문성과 미래지향적 역량 개발을 위해 국가적 차원에서 다양한 교육 프로그램을 기획·운영하는 것은 중요하다. 본 연구는 사서 전문교육훈련기관의 교육 프로그램으로 사서학습공동체의 도입 가능성을 검토하고 적절한 운영 방법을 제시하는 데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 다음과 같은 내용과 방법으로 연구를 진행하였다 : 1) 관련 문헌 검토를 통해 사서학습공동체 개념, 운영 단계, 유형 등 학습공동체 운영에 관한 이론적 논의, 2) 시범 운영을 통한 사서학습공동체 운영 가능성 탐색 및 시사점 도출, 3) 사서학습공동체 운영 모델 및 지원 체계 제안. 본 연구는 시범 운영 과정에서 참여 관찰 및 참가자 의견수렴을 통해 사서학습공동체 운영 모델을 검토하여 시행 초기의 혼란을 최소화하고, 향후 프로그램의 성공적인 정착을 위한 운영 로드맵 및 지원체계를 함께 제시하였다. 향후 여러 해에 걸친 시행과 실증적 분석을 통해 본 연구에서 제시한 사서학습공동체 운영 모델을 더욱 정교하게 발전시킬 필요가 있다. 그렇지만 본 연구의 결과는 타분야 전문직 교육훈련을 위한 학습공동체의 초기 운영 모델로도 유용할 것이다.
