이 연구에서는 화엄종의 요람이었던 부석사의 연혁과 역사에 대하여 살펴보았다. 또한 전존하는 인본과 관련 기록을 통해 사찰에서 이루어진 서적의 간행과 유통 정황을 고찰하 였다. 그 결과 부석사에서는 고려시대 3종, 조선시대 5종의 판본이 간행되었다. 부석사는 고려시대 화엄종의 종찰로 『華嚴經』을 간행하는 등 왕실의 비호를 받으며 꾸준히 출판 활동을 전개하였다. 고려시대 거질의 『華嚴經』간행을 통한 축적된 기술력은 조선 초기 불경 판각으로 이어졌고, 조선 후기 유가서의 간행으로 귀착되기도 하였다. 뿐만 아니라 인근 順興府에서 새겨진 유가서 판목을 보관하는 목판의 守藏處 역할 또한 충실히 수행하 였다. 사찰에서 판각된 인본과 관련 기록을 통해 볼 때, 부석사는 사찰이 위치한 지역 일대 의 지식 생산 및 유통의 요처로 그 역할을 다하였던 것으로 생각된다.
