Abstract

Background: The development of digital technology and changes in information access patterns encourage libraries in educational institutions to transform literacy services into digital forms, one of which is the virtual reading room, an alternative reading service, such as Universitas Terbuka (UT)’s digital library. Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the transformation of digital literacy services through virtual reading rooms in supporting information access, utilization of digital sources, and user digital literacy practices. Methods: This research used a qualitative case study approach. Data were obtained through observations of the virtual reading room platform and in-depth interviews with two management representatives, one active user tutor, and eight UT student representatives from various service areas. Interview data were analyzed to answer research questions. Results: Findings indicated that Virtual Reading Rooms had transformed libraries from physical reading and discussion spaces into digital services accessible beyond spatial and temporal constraints. This transformation expanded access to integrated academic resources that supported students' daily learning activities. Findings also revealed that tutors and students continued to face challenges related to disparities in digital competency, the ability to use digital resources, and unequal digital infrastructure across regions. Additionally, challenges remained in service management and long-term sustainability. Conclusion: Virtual reading rooms are a relevant and strategic form of digital literacy service transformation to address the need for information access in the digital era. Implications: These findings offer practical guidance for libraries and educational institutions for developing adaptive, sustainable digital literacy services, and are expected to contribute to the literature on digitalization and libraries' digital transformation.

Abstract

Background: Knowledge Management (KM) plays a crucial role in supporting organizational sustainability, particularly in IT consulting firms where knowledge is predominantly tacit, experience-based, and vulnerable to loss. Many consulting organizations face difficulties identifying which knowledge is truly critical and how to manage it as reusable organizational information. Purpose: This study aimed to identify, prioritize, and manage critical knowledge aligned with organizational strategy at PT XYZ, an IT consulting company. Methods: Using a mixed qualitative–quantitative approach, this study followed six stages: contextual knowledge scoping, tacit knowledge elicitation, knowledge structuring, critical knowledge assessment using Critical Knowledge Factors (CKF), prioritization using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), and repository design for knowledge preservation. Results: The study identified 24 structured knowledge areas, of which 20 were classified as critical. AHP analysis indicated that Gaining Commitment, Reading Opportunities, and Marketing Strategy were the highest priority knowledge assets, primarily embedded in sales and marketing activities. Conclusion: This study demonstrates how tacit knowledge can be transformed into structured organizational information aligned with strategic processes through an information management perspective. Theoretically, this study contributes to information science by conceptualizing critical knowledge as information objects organized through metadata, lifecycle governance, and repository preservation. Implications: In practice, these findings provide the IT consulting firm with a structured approach to safeguarding critical tacit knowledge, reducing reliance on individuals, and strengthening organizational memory. However, the study is limited to a single organizational context, relies on expert judgment, and presents a repository design that remains conceptual rather than technically implemented.

Abstract

Background: WhatsApp Groups (WAGs) are widely used as communication and collaboration tools among librarians. However, their role in digital collection sharing and informal interlibrary loan has received little attention, particularly in developing-country contexts. Understanding how WAGs can support library resource sharing addresses this research gap. Purpose: This study aims to explore how librarians use WAGs as a platform for digital collection sharing to fulfil users' information needs and to examine their potential as an informal extension of the interlibrary loan system. Methods: Non-participant observation was conducted in several WhatsApp groups of librarians in Indonesia. The study focused on how group members requested and shared digital resources, such as journal articles and ebooks, during their daily professional communication. Results: Findings indicated that some librarians actively used WAGs to exchange digital collections. Members posted requests for specific articles or ebooks, and others responded by sharing full-text files when available. This practice fostered collaboration and helped overcome subscription and budget constraints. However, challenges such as copyright compliance, file-size constraints, limited information organization, and data privacy and security issues were also identified. Conclusion: WAGs can informally replicate the functions of formal resource-sharing systems, offering flexible, low-cost opportunities for collaboration. Effective implementation requires clear regulations, membership controls, attention to privacy and security, and appropriate training. Implications: In practice, WAGs offer a lightweight, cost-effective model for library collaboration. Theoretically, this study contributes empirical evidence on informal digital collection sharing, informing policies and governance strategies for library digital resources and AI-adjacent platform-mediated knowledge exchange.

Abstract

Background: Digital preservation of Electronic Theses and Dissertations (ETD) is fundamental to sustaining scholarly output in higher education institutions; however, empirical investigations into user satisfaction and socio-technical challenges within self-deposit models globally remain limited, especially in local Indonesian context. Purpose: This study examined satisfaction levels and implementation challenges in ETD digital preservation through self-deposit in the institutional repository of Universitas Andalas, Indonesia. Methods: Employing a sequential mixed-methods design, quantitative data were collected via a satisfaction survey administered to 174 students who completed the self-deposit process. Analysis used descriptive statistics and validity testing in SPSS, while qualitative insights were derived from semi-structured interviews with repository administrators and library staff, supplemented by workflow observations and analyzed through thematic analysis. Results: Results revealed a procedurally structured self-deposit workflow constrained by technical limitations: students reported moderate overall satisfaction (M = 3.46), with the lowest ratings for system performance, especially stability and upload speed, and persistent difficulties with file uploads, metadata completion, and comprehension of deposit guidelines. Conversely, administrative support received the highest satisfaction scores, highlighting users' continued reliance on human assistance. Conclusion: Self-deposit alone is insufficient for effective ETD preservation in resource-constrained environments; its sustainability hinges on integrating a robust technical infrastructure with consistent human support to bridge the socio-technical gap between system design and user capabilities. Implications: Theoretically, this study contributes to digital preservation literature by foregrounding socio-technical interdependencies in self-deposit adoption beyond Western contexts. In practice, it offers actionable recommendations for repository managers in developing countries, including infrastructure upgrades to enhance system reliability, simplifying metadata schemas and user interfaces, and embedding editor support during the deposit process to strengthen repository sustainability and user autonomy.

Abstract

Background: This study examines library transformation through social inclusion, focusing on skills development programs for Generation Z implemented by Omah Sinau and Ilham community libraries in Jambi City. There is a need for more information on how community libraries that are already based on social inclusion develop the knowledge and skills of Gen Z. Purpose: The study aimed to understand how Omah Sinau and Ilham community libraries have transformed into innovative and inclusive spaces and become hubs for creative, social, and digital activities for Gen Z. Methods: This study employed a qualitative research design. Informants were selected through purposive sampling, including government officials, community library managers, and Gen Z members. Results: Findings revealed that Gen Z female members were the dominant group, accounting for approximately 62%, and were primarily students. Findings also found that the skills development program involving handicrafts among Gen Z was implemented through exploration, socialization, and action phases. Findings also demonstrated that the handicraft products produced included bags, decorative flowers, piggy banks, decorative lamps, children’s toys, souvenirs, hand soap, beads, food-grade items, and decorative flower stems. Conclusion: The Gen Z skills development program developed by Omah Sinau and Ilham community libraries is not merely about meeting their needs, but also a strategic step towards transforming libraries into relevant, innovative, and inclusive spaces. Implication: This study replicates the economic and skills empowerment of Gen Z, the transformation of spaces and facilities, and multi-stakeholder collaboration. It has implications for a paradigm shift in the functions of public libraries and motor learning methods (such as handicrafts) of Gen Z.
