<![CDATA[School libraries play a vital role in enhancing learners' basic literacy in primary schools by creating interactive reading corners that provide engaging environments, diverse book collections, and integrated literacy activities, such as storytelling and educational films, thereby encouraging active participation and improving motivation and literacy skills. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of the interactive reading corner programme in improving learners' basic literacy skills at SD Negeri 2 Kayuambon. Using a qualitative approach and descriptive methods, the study involved 38 learners to observe their interest in reading, engagement in the storytelling programme and utilisation of smartboard technology. Despite challenges such as low reading interest and difficulty focusing, the library's efforts to update the reading collection and foster an engaging learning environment had a positive impact. Reading interest increased by 15%, and 89% of learners were actively engaged through the use of smartboards. These findings highlight the need for innovative and collaborative strategies between teachers and librarians to optimise literacy development and support learners' academic success.]]>
