Abstract

Background: Microfilms are susceptible to damage over time. The lack of guidelines, materials and reference materials on microfilm is also the reason why the use and maintenance of microfilm in libraries is still rare. Many libraries and librarians are not fully aware and prepared to maintain and care for microfilm so that it can be used for a long time.  Purpose: To review the literature on microfilm preservation so that through this research, the extent of scientific development and knowledge that has been produced by experts is known. Method: A systematic literature review with a qualitative approach was used to collect literature relevant to the topic. The formulation of research questions used the population, intervention, comparison, outcome, and context (PICOC) framework and the search strategy used Boolean logic. Literature sources came from Google Scholar, which was then tested for quality. The analysis technique used content analysis by describing the research findings. Result: The majority of the literature reviewed came from India and Nigeria with the highest number of publications in 2023. Traditional microfilm preservation techniques are carried out by providing a special place and controlling environmental conditions. Meanwhile, digital preservation techniques are carried out by digitizing through data migration. The constraints of microfilm preservation that are often encountered are financial limitations. Conclusion: From the results of the systematic review, it was found that storage in a separate room and digitization are often done in libraries to preserve microfilms with limited funds as the main obstacle.Keywords: Library; Library Material; Microfilm; Preservation

Abstract

Abstract Problem Statement: Large-scale analysis at Gadjah Mada University (UGM), Indonesia, to assess students’ awareness and usage of Reference Management Software (RMS) in academic writing tools has been limited. Purpose: This study aimed to examine the extent to which postgraduate students at UGM are familiar with and use RMS in analysis and academic writing. Method: A descriptive survey method was applied using an online questionnaire distributed to postgraduate students at Faculty of Geography, UGM. Furthermore, a total of 52 valid responses were collected and analyzed. Results: The results showed that 94.2% (49) of students were aware of RMS, such as Mendeley, Zotero, and EndNote. The remaining 5.8% (3) were not aware of the existence of RMS. Mendeley was the most widely used, and out of the 49 students who were aware of the existence of RMS, only 2% or 1, did not adopt the application in scientific writing. The knowledge of the software was obtained from librarians or libraries in 44% of cases. Conclusion: Librarians play an important role in enhancing students’ ability to use RMS effectively. This study recommends that libraries continue to offer structured and periodic training programs to strengthen students’ productivity and digital literacy. The results contribute new insights into RMS adoption in Indonesian higher education and report the evolving role of librarians in supporting activities.

Abstract

Abstract   Background: Access to relevant information is an important aspect of the rehabilitation and social reintegration process for inmates. However, the specific information needs of female prisoners have not been fully identified, while the reading materials provided by the mobile library service remain limited and do not yet align with the preferences of female inmates. Purpose: This study aims to identify the information needs of female inmates at the Women's Detention Center Class IIB Bengkulu and to analyze the contribution of mobile library services in supporting the rehabilitation process. Method: This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews and direct observations involving female inmates, correctional officers, and librarians in charge of the mobile library service. The data analysis followed an interactive process encompassing five stages: data collection, raw data description, data reduction, data categorization, and the construction of inter-category relationships. Result: Female inmates showed a high interest in affective information such as fiction novels and language arts books, but the available collection was inadequate. Social and personal integration information was available but underutilized due to a lack of understanding and interest. This indicates a gap between actual needs and the provision of information services.  Conclusion: The mobile library service plays a significant role in meeting the information needs of female inmates, but improvements are needed through collection diversification, increased procurement frequency, and the implementation of information literacy programs to make the service more relevant to their needs.
