Film Usage • Only 8 libraries mentioned “Film studies” as one of fields for which Korean Films are used • Film is not only used for films studies; broadly used by other subject fields • Language / Literature / History / Cultural studies / Anthropology / Sociology / Political Science / International Relations / Media Studies / East Asian Film series

  10. Genre • Most show preference toward South Korean feature film (“Korean wave”) • Some libraries choose genres selectively such as documentaries only, or North Korean films only • 21 libraries are willing to develop more than three Korean film genres • Other genre: Korean Animation

  12. Cataloging

  13. Cataloging Practice • Media librarian catalogs most Korean films if there is no Korean language specialist • Collaborative work: Korean language specialist gives assistance to Media librarian • Division of Labor: Original cataloging is done by the Korean subject specialist and copy cataloging by the media librarian

  14. Holdings location • 22 libraries house Korean films at Media Libraries or Departmental libraries (Cinema Collection), Not East Asian library • Currently 6 libraries house Films in the East Asian library • 3 libraries send (VHS only) or plan to send Korean films to library storage
