Abstract

The purpose of this study is to understand the trends and problems of media coverage about Korean libraries by selecting keywords from Korean portal news articles and conducting semantic network analysis. As a result, Korean news reports focus on public libraries rather than school and university libraries. Elsewhere, libraries’ lifelong learning program performance, such as cultural events and educational lectures, are overly biased on press release. In addition, news articles in all kinds of libraries are dominated by simple publicity about businesses or events rather than policy issues about library laws, budgets and manpower. Korea’s libraries reflected in the media are analyzed as cultural and social educational institutions rather than knowledge information centers.
