Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the current state and librarian's perception of information services in order to maximize their expertise and role of each policy field and promote continuous development of information services. The researcher surveyed 22 government-funded research institute librarians on their perception of service planning stage, investigation and provision stage, evaluation stage, system operation, required capacities for librarians, role expansion and change, and job difficulties. The questionnaire was consisted of 7 domains, 12 items, and 61 questions, and in-depth interviews were conducted for qualitative analysis. The findings of the study discovered newly required tasks in libraries such as introducing research information management tools, operating an advisory committee, and conducting publications-related tasks. Suggestions were made to encourage standardized manuals for modules based on job tasks, Continuing education to expand the role of subject librarians, and utilization of social media in information services.
