Perpustakaan Digital: Solusi Modern untuk Akses Informasi yang Lebih Baik

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of information technology in improving the efficiency of library management. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, this study reviews the literature related to library management, information technology, and its implementation in the context of modern libraries. Data collection techniques were carried out through a literature study of various journals, books, and other relevant sources. Data analysis was carried out descriptively by identifying the main themes and building arguments based on the findings from the literature reviewed. The results of the study show that information technology plays a very important role in improving the efficiency of library management. The implementation of library management systems, such as online cataloging, digital lending, and user data analysis, enables libraries to manage collections, provide services, and measure performance more effectively. In addition, digital libraries also offer wider and more flexible access for users. However, this study also identifies several challenges in the implementation of information technology in libraries, such as limited budgets, resistance to change, and the need for ongoing training.
