Abstract

The Tahta Keliling Program initiated by the Proklamator Bung Hatta Library Technical Implementation Unit (UPT) is a strategic effort to expand the reach of information services and enhance public access to reading materials, particularly for schools and communities located far from the main library. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the Tahta Keliling Program in increasing library user visits by assessing program planning, implementation mechanisms, collection selection, operational constraints, and the impact of services on the intensity of visits to the library. A qualitative approach was employed using in-depth interviews with one program coordinator and four implementation staff members, supported by observation and activity documentation. The findings show that the Tahta Keliling Program has been planned and implemented systematically through route determination, collection selection, and flexible scheduling according to the needs of each location. The main challenges encountered include weather conditions, limited human resources, and supporting facilities; however, these were addressed through effective coordination, schedule adjustment, and proportional task distribution. Overall, the program has had a positive impact on increasing community interaction with the library and encouraging higher visit rates to the main library. This study concludes that the Tahta Keliling Program is effective in expanding access to literacy and increasing community participation in library services, and it holds potential as a reference model for developing sustainable mobile library services.

Abstract

The Program Buku Bicara (BUBI) is a creative literacy service innovation by the Agen Perubahan (AP) 2025 of the Proklamator Bung Hatta Library Technical Implementation Unit (UPT), developed to enhance early childhood literacy through interactive storytelling activities in the library setting. This study aimed to describe the implementation of the BUBI Program, the role of librarians, children’s responses, and the benefits and challenges that emerged during its implementation. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation conducted during the internship (PKL) period, particularly from September to November 2025. The findings show that the BUBI Program was implemented in a structured manner and succeeded in capturing children’s attention through question-and-answer sessions and story-based interactions, thereby contributing to improved comprehension of story content, vocabulary development, and strengthened children’s confidence in communication. The main challenges encountered were related to declining child focus over certain activity durations and the limited availability of supporting media. This study concludes that the BUBI Program is effective as a creative literacy strategy in the library, with implications for the need to strengthen supporting facilities and provide storytelling training for librarians in order to further optimize the quality of children’s literacy services.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the types of damage and evaluate conservation practices applied to the rare book Menudju Kemerdekaan/Towards Independence, held in the collection of the Proklamator Bung Hatta Library Technical Implementation Unit (UPT), and to formulate appropriate conservation recommendations. As an important documentary source on the history of Indonesia’s struggle for independence, the book is highly vulnerable to material degradation due to age and environmental conditions. The research employed a qualitative method with a case study approach through direct observation of the book’s physical condition and in-depth interviews with the UPT conservator. The findings show that the book has suffered physical damage (loose binding, tears, and paper fragility), chemical damage (paper yellowing due to acidification), and biological damage (fungal attack). The curative conservation practices implemented by the UPT are considered fairly optimal and include mending with Japanese tissue, sterilization using 70% alcohol, and the application of collection preservation guidelines. However, conservation efforts are still constrained by limited facilities and infrastructure, particularly in environmental control, as temperature and humidity remain unstable due to insufficient air-conditioning coverage. Conservation recommendations include additional curative measures in the form of deacidification to address chemical deterioration, as well as binding repair using the portaple or book file method that does not alter the book’s original form. Preventively, the UPT needs to improve environmental control by adding dehumidifiers to slow down the rate of material degradation. This study underscores the urgency of early intervention in the preservation of written cultural heritage, in line with the principles emphasized by Shabrina and Yusniah (2025), to ensure the continuity of the nation’s intellectual legacy.

Abstract

Improving service quality is an urgent necessity for libraries as public service institutions, particularly in the digital era. One of the innovations developed to address this need is the One-Stop Service model, which integrates various types of services into a single service channel. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the One-Stop Service in improving service quality at the Proklamator Bung Hatta Library Technical Implementation Unit (UPT) in Bukittinggi and to identify its impacts and the obstacles encountered in its implementation. A qualitative approach with a descriptive method was employed through in-depth interviews and observations involving five purposively selected informants, namely librarians and staff directly involved in service provision. The findings show that the implementation of a WhatsApp-based One-Stop Service has accelerated service processes, facilitated user access, improved the quality of interaction between librarians and visitors, and reduced delays in the return of library materials. Nevertheless, several challenges remain, including limitations of application features, the potential for misunderstandings in communication, and the influx of messages outside working hours. The study concludes that the One-Stop Service is effective in enhancing library service quality and constitutes a relevant innovation to support more responsive, user-oriented library services.

Abstract

The development of library services requires innovations that can enhance children’s reading engagement and visits, one of which is the use of educational games in children’s collection rooms. Previous studies have shown that 3D educational games can improve early childhood literacy skills (Intisari et al., 2025), educational games encourage increased student visits to school libraries (Wulandari et al., 2025), and the integration of educational games into library services contributes to higher levels of children’s reading engagement (Patni et al., 2024). This study aimed to explain how educational games are used in the children’s collection room at Perpustakaan Proklamator Bung Hatta and the role of these games in increasing the number of children’s visits. The study employed a descriptive qualitative methodology with informants consisting of children’s room librarians and the head of the library services working team. Data were collected through observation, documentation, and interviews, and then analyzed through the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that various types of educational games, such as puzzles, building blocks, Sudoku, logic games, and children’s crossword games, create a pleasant, interactive, and educational learning atmosphere for children, thereby increasing the frequency of visits to the children’s room and the duration of their visits to the library. However, the implementation of educational games also faced constraints, including the limited number of games, damage to materials due to intensive use, and insufficient supervision during peak hours. To address these constraints, librarians implemented strategies such as game rotation, routine maintenance, and clear rules of use for children. This study confirms that educational games function as an effective service innovation to increase children’s visits and engagement in the library, while offering practical implications for developing children’s room services through strengthening educational game collections and involving children in selecting types of games.

Abstract

Librarians’ use of Instagram has the potential to enhance community information literacy, yet its effectiveness in the context of regional public libraries has not been widely examined empirically. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of librarians’ use of Instagram in improving community information literacy at the Solok Regency Public Library. A quantitative approach with an explanatory research design was employed, with the population consisting of community members who follow the Instagram account of the Solok Regency Public Library and a sample selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a closed Likert-scale questionnaire measuring librarians’ use of Instagram and the level of community information literacy, and were then analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics through simple linear regression. The results showed that librarians’ use of Instagram was in the good category and had a significant effect on community information literacy, as reflected in the increased ability of community members to identify their information needs and to search for, evaluate, and use information effectively. These findings affirm that improving the quality of content, interactivity, and consistency in managing the library’s Instagram account constitutes an effective strategy for strengthening community information literacy. This study provides practical implications for public libraries in optimising the use of social media as a means of enhancing information literacy and user education services.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify differences in students’ information literacy levels between schools that have librarians and those that do not. A quantitative approach with a comparative design was employed, conducted at SMAN 1 Kubung as a school with a librarian and SMAN 1 Junjung Sirih as a school without a librarian. The research population comprised all students in both schools, with the sample determined using proportionate stratified random sampling. The research instrument was an information literacy questionnaire measuring the ability to recognise information needs, search for information, evaluate sources, and use information ethically. Data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics through an independent t-test to compare the information literacy levels between the two groups of students. The results showed a significant difference in students’ information literacy levels, with students in the school that has a librarian demonstrating higher levels of information literacy than those in the school without a librarian. These findings indicate that the presence of a librarian in schools plays an important role in supporting the development of students’ information literacy and is expected to serve as a consideration for schools and policymakers in improving the quality of school library services.

Abstract

Collection suitability is a key aspect of service quality because it is directly related to a library’s ability to meet users’ information needs, yet in-depth qualitative studies exploring users’ perceptions of collection suitability in provincial public libraries remain limited. This study aimed to understand library users’ perceptions of collection suitability at the Dinas Kearsipan dan Perpustakaan Provinsi Sumatera Barat (West Sumatra Provincial Archives and Library Office) in terms of relevance, adequacy, and accessibility of the collection. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation involving users selected purposively based on the intensity and breadth of their experience in utilising the library’s collections. Data were analysed through the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, with validity tested using source and technique triangulation. The findings show that, in general, users perceive the library’s collection as reasonably suitable for their information needs, particularly for reading, studying, and educational support, with novels, textbooks, and reference books as the most frequently used types of materials. However, users also highlight limitations in the currency of the collection, the depth of certain subject areas, and access to digital collections. The study concludes that the suitability of the library’s collection is at a moderately good level but still requires continuous development, with implications for the need for regular collection updates, expansion of subject coverage, and strengthening of digital collections to enhance user satisfaction and the effectiveness of public library services.

Abstract

The layout of library spaces is a key factor influencing users’ comfort in utilising library services, yet studies that specifically explore the role of spatial layout in user comfort at regional public libraries from a user-experience perspective remain relatively limited. This study aimed to analyse the role of library space layout in supporting user comfort at the Dinas Kearsipan dan Perpustakaan Provinsi Sumatera Barat, with a particular focus on the arrangement of reading areas, shelving, ease of mobility, lighting, and overall room conditions. A qualitative method with a descriptive qualitative design was employed through in-depth interviews and direct observation of library users selected via purposive sampling based on their experience in using the library space. Data were analysed through the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing using a thematic approach. The findings show that, overall, the library’s spatial layout has supported user comfort, particularly through the separation of reading areas and collection areas as well as the relatively orderly arrangement of facilities; the reading room is generally perceived as comfortable and conducive for reading and studying activities, while the placement of shelving assists users in locating materials. Nevertheless, several constraints were identified, including narrow aisle spacing between shelves in certain areas, mismatches between collection placement and classification numbers, and uneven lighting. The study concludes that the library’s spatial layout plays a crucial role in shaping user comfort but still requires ongoing optimisation. The implications highlight the need for more adaptive spatial planning, improved lighting quality, and more consistent collection management to enhance user comfort and the overall quality of public library services.

Abstract

The use of the Online Public Access Catalog (OPAC) is a key component in supporting users’ information retrieval in libraries, yet in practice OPAC has not been optimally utilised, particularly in regional public libraries that serve users with diverse educational backgrounds and levels of information literacy, potentially hindering the effectiveness of information retrieval. This study aimed to analyse the use of OPAC in supporting users’ information searching at the Dinas Kearsipan dan Perpustakaan Provinsi Sumatera Barat. The research employed a qualitative method with a descriptive design, using in-depth interviews with library users and direct observation of OPAC use within the library, with informants selected through purposive sampling based on their experience in utilising OPAC. Data were analysed through the stages of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing using a thematic approach. The findings show that OPAC has been used as an initial tool for information searching to help users identify the titles, authors, availability, and locations of collections, with search features based on title and author name being the most frequently used because they are considered easy and practical. Nevertheless, several challenges remain, including users’ limited understanding of OPAC features, a lack of usage guidelines, unstable system performance, and discrepancies between OPAC records and the actual collections on the shelves. The study concludes that while OPAC use has supported users’ information searching, it has not yet reached an optimal level; the implications underscore the need to improve OPAC service quality through regular updating of collection data, enhancement of system performance, and strengthening of users’ information literacy so that OPAC can be utilised more effectively in public libraries.
