<![CDATA[Background: State Elementary School 5 Bengkulu City, as a formal educational institution that has achieved A accreditation, requires a comprehensive evaluation of its library organization based on the National Standard for Elementary School/Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Libraries. Purpose: This research aims to analyze the implementation of six components of the national library standard, which include: collection standard, facilities and infrastructure standard, library staff standard, service standard, organization standard, and management standard at State Elementary School 5 Bengkulu City. Methods: This study employed a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through interview, observation, and documentation techniques. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Results: The research findings indicate that the library of State Elementary School 5 Bengkulu City is not yet fully compliant with the National Standard for Elementary School/Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Libraries. Of the six standards, only a few components approached [or: partially met] the established provisions. Sub-standards that were met include: minimum collection size, library area, number of library staff, vision and mission, mandatory reading program, and service reporting.
