Exploring Book-related Appeal Factors Using Content Analysis of Online Bookstore Reviews
- jiyoung_shim@yonsei.ac.kr
Abstract
This study identified the book-related appeal factors influencing the selection and use of books based on readers’ experiences revealed in online bookstore reviews. As a result of content analysis on 1,094 Korean and English reviews of 187 books with various topics and genres/formats, the appeal factors were identified by dividing them into readers, authors, general elements of books(language/format, topic/subject), fiction, and non-fiction. The results of this study, which segmented the appeal factors of existing readers’ advisory services, will be useful not only for improving library services to help readers search for and use books but also as data for enhancing the design of facets in reading material systems.
