參考服務在國內檔案典藏單位應用之研究 / Application of Reference Services in Archival Repositories of Taiwan

檔案是政府知識及人類文化紀錄的寶庫,不論對國家社會,乃至個人都有極為重要之意義。檔案應用服務扮演著重要的角色,必須提供便捷的檢索工具與服務,讓使用者容易查詢,進而得以調閱應用檔案,方能充分發揮檔案存在之價值與功能。
參考服務是讀者服務中最重要的一環,是檔案館對外服務工作的門面,對檔案館的聲譽有舉足輕重的影響力。參考服務品質的良窳會影響到檔案典藏單位的形象,使用者對參考服務的滿意度,往往等於是對整個檔案館的滿意度。檔案參考服務的方式,隨著科技與網路的興盛,以及重視個人服務的潮流,除了繼續提供傳統的參考服務方式外,數位方式的線上參考服務主要目的在於能藉助網際網路與通訊的技術達到不限空間、不限時間的理想,提供使用者在遠端進行查詢與檢索。
本研究使用「文獻分析法」、「深度訪談法」及網站內容分析進行檔案參考服務的實施歷程與現況、館員應有之態度與因應、規劃建立之個人資訊化服務及檔案使用者期盼之線上參考服務之趨勢等,以質性研究之方式深入探討並作歸納比較。
