이 연구의 목적은 OCLC WorldCat의 실험적 지원도구인 WorldCat Identities Network를 검토하고, 그 안에 수록된한국 관련 개인 아이덴티티의 문제점에 대한 개선방안을 제안하는 것이다. WorldCat Identities Network에 포함된영어 및 한국어로 표기된 개인 아이덴티티 10개와 주제 아이덴티티 10개를 사례로 선택하여 관련 아이덴티티 및관련 저작의 WorldCat 검색 결과를 분석하였다. WorldCat 검색 시 디폴트 검색식 구성의 문제점 및 검색 대상 아이덴티티의 이름과 연관된 연도 혹은 완전명 포함에 따른 검색 오류의 문제점을 확인하였다.
The purpose of this study is to review the processing of Korean related personal identities included in the OCLC WorldCat Identities Network and propose how to improve its errors. With twelve samples of English and Korean personal and subject identities, their related identities and works were examined, and their bibliographic records were retrieved from WorldCat. In searching WorldCat, inconsistencies in default search queries and the processing of identities with a date or a fuller form of name were observed.
