<![CDATA[Introduction. Information accessibility for visually impaired users at the Universitas Negeri Malang Library is hindered by a limited range of collection formats. This study aims to develop and evaluate VoiceLib, an integrated text-to-audio conversion system designed to bridge the accessibility gap independently. Research Methods. This Research and Development (R&D) study adopted the Waterfall model, encompassing requirements analysis, interface design, system implementation, testing, and maintenance. The evaluation used questionnaires administered to three expert validators, along with a field trial involving 10 purposively sampled visually impaired students and 2 purposively sampled librarians. Data Analysis. Validity and feasibility data were collected via questionnaires and analyzed using quantitative descriptive techniques to calculate feasibility score percentages. Results. VoiceLib was successfully developed as a web-based platform that not only converts text to audio but also manages the conversion results within a single platform. Validation tests achieved 82.30% from subject matter experts and 83.55% from media experts. Field trials confirmed the system’s high usability, with a score of 97.7% from students and 100% from librarians. Conclusion. VoiceLib introduces a novel approach by integrating media conversion services and digital collection storage within a single system. This innovation practically supports the independence of visually impaired library users, fostering more inclusive library services.]]>
