A cooperative caching method and apparatus for reducing data access time and data acquisition cost in a mobile communication system are provided. The cooperative caching method of a local base station in a mobile communication system using caches of base stations cooperatively connected with each other includes determining, when a request for data is received from a client, whether the data is stored in the cache of the local base station; sending, to a home base station, upon determining that the data is not stored in the cache, a request for the data; acquiring the data from one of the home base station and a server according to whether the data is stored in the home base station; and serving the data to the client.
