Welcome to the National Assembly Library of Korea,
the "Info-Arsenal of Democracy."

I extend my warm greetings to all visitors to the National Assembly Library of Korea.

The National Assembly Library took its first step in 1952 in Busan, the wartime capital, amid the devastation of war. With only one librarian and 3,600 volumes, the Library was founded on the belief that knowledge and information would shape the future of the nation.

Today, after 74 years of growth, the Library has become one of the world’s leading parliamentary libraries and a national repository of knowledge and information. With 8.9 million volumes and more than 450 million pages of digital full-text resources, the Library supports the National Assembly’s legislative and policymaking activities while expanding public access to knowledge.


Now, in the era of Artificial Intelligence Transformation (AX), the National Assembly Library is taking another leap toward becoming an intelligent future library. Through the NAIL (National Assembly AI Library) project, the Library aims to develop personalized services that provide deeper insight and inspiration to both the National Assembly and the public.

As we move forward, the National Assembly Library will continue to grow as a knowledge and cultural platform for the public.

I believe that a nation’s future competitiveness begins with the power to read and think. As the Librarian of the National Assembly, I would like to leave you with this message:

"Readers Lead, Leaders Read."
