Abstract

This study is to demonstrate that public libraries help community to become an active ‘Community of Practice(CoP)’. In order to prove this hypothesis, ‘Libraries Transforming Communities(LTC)’ initiative of American Library Association is analyzed. Public libraries participating in LTC program solved problems of communities through making CoPs by librarians as a catalyst. People’s recognition about public libraries is altered by the problem-solving practice. The followings are 4-level transforming relationship model of public library and community: Leadership Development for Librarian CoPs; Librarian CoPs for improving library services; Community CoPs with library for solving problems; Community as CoP.
