A Study on the Reading Program in the Library of College －Focusing on G College Library Book Club ‘GAYA’

Under the task of cultivating professionals, the imbalance between vocational education and liberal arts education is deepening. In addition, compared to university libraries, the number of college libraries operating reading programs is small, and related research is lacking. Therefore, this study presents a library-centered reading program model for junior colleges and examines it through actual cases.The environment, readers, and cultural characteristics of junior colleges were examined, and a reading program that integrated reading and writing was constructed based on Mikhail Bakhtin's “dialogueism”. The reading program was designed according to the pre-, middle-, and post-reading stages, and was applied in the library of G College, after which the case studies were analyzed. The differences and significance of this study are as follows.First, a library-centered liberal arts reading program was presented at a junior college where vocational education was the main focus. Second, a reference model for the library reading program of colleges was presented. Lastly, the need for competence among college librarians tasked with educating students in reading was presented.
