Improving quality of learning related to the management of supporting facilities in the learning process cannot be separated from the library facilities implemented by the librarian. It is essential to ensure that the learning activities can be done well. Therefore the librarian is asked to design a system called Library Automation. Instructional design in E-Book development methodology with this library Automation system uses library to study and field study using observation and interview. This system is made to accelerate the typical daily activities. The application of automation gives a great advantage; the students can be able to find the information quickly. Furthermore, this automation system is already based on Online. The existence of the e-book gives the significant benefits in STAI Miftahul Ula Nganjuk. In expanding perusing interest, the presence of the digital book can likewise enhance the administrations institutionally, takes care of its requests advancement, improves the execution, and keeps up a realness of an archive. The understudies are exceptionally happy with this framework. They generally get the data about the books despite the fact that they are not on grounds condition.

Purpose – Finnish libraries are using different integrated library systems. Higher education libraries funded by the Ministry of Education and Culture are using the same ILS in three different installations on the same hardware. Special and public libraries are using several different systems. Many of these library systems are reaching their end-of-life phase. During the spring and summer of 2011 all the Finnish library sectors together with the National Library of Finland formed a joint committee in order to assess the feasibility of a library system entirety, possibly an open source solution that would suit the needs of all the different types of libraries. The purpose of this paper is to describe and analyse the planning for the acquisition of a new library system initiated in year 2012; the concept is to try to establish a joint system with common databases for all the libraries in all sectors willing to collaborate in this effort. Design/methodology/approach – The paper describes the evolution of the Finnish library systems and evaluates the methods used in the planning of the new library automation system. Findings – The broad model of group working was useful in policy making and committing the libraries to the joint project. Using social web-technologies were efficient in project communication and marketing. This type of semi-professional planning was not able to produce accurate specification for programming thus a need for follow-up project became evident. Research limitations/implications – The paper is based on Finnish experiences. Social implications – The paper presents a case about the usage of group working in the planning of a library automation system with an evaluation of the possibilities and restraints on this type of approach. Originality/value – The paper provides an analysis on the usability of broad group working type of approach to the policy making and planning of library automation systems.

Purpose – The purpose of this study is to examine public library staff attitudes towards an open-source library automation system in the state of Indiana. The researchers were interested in understanding the library staff’s perceptions of the value of the system in performing their job duties and improving library services. Design/methodology/approach – The researchers travelled to nine public libraries every three months to survey library staff from January to December 2010. The participants completed the surveys at the libraries and were given the option to remain anonymous. The survey consisted of six questions regarding the use of the Evergreen system for work processes and basic demographic information of the staff. There were a total of 323 survey respondents. Of the 323 respondents, 57 (17.65 per cent) used the Evergreen system in their daily work routines at the library. Findings – The primary benefits reported were: ability to check the availability of library materials at other Evergreen libraries via the shared catalogue, the Evergreen system provided more functionality than their previous library automation systems and the ability to reserve materials for patrons. Research limitations/implications – This was a convenience sample. All survey participants provided their responses voluntarily during the 12-month study period. A more comprehensive sampling procedure should be considered in the future. Originality/value – The study indicated the need for improvements in the Evergreen Indiana system. Those improvements were also relevant to other open-source integrated library systems.

Perpustakaan sebagai pemberi layanan kepada pemakai atau pengunjung memerlukan metode-metode pelayanan yang bersifat cepat, mudah dan efisien. Layanan perpustakaan yang masih bersifat manual menimbulkan berbagai kendala dalam pemberian layanan seperti layanan bersifat lambat, sulitnya pencarian koleksi dan kurang akuratnya data yang diarsip. Kemajuan teknologi informasi dan komputer menawarkan peluang sangat besar untuk menunjang kelancaran tugas-tugas di berbagai bidang kehidupan termasuk di dalamnya bidang perpustakaan. Perpustakaan sebagai institusi pengelola informasi merupakan salah satu bidang penerapan teknologi informasi yang berkembang dengan pesat. Salah satu fitur yang dapat dikembangkan dalam bidang perpustakaan adalah pengembangan perpus  takaan digital berbasis web. Pemanfaatan web site memberi kemudahan akan akses informasi yang lebih cepat baik dari dalam maupun dari luar perpustakaan. Artikel ini merekomendasikan sebuah perangkat lunak perpustakaan digital berbasis open source yang diharapkan menjadi alternatif pemberian layanan untuk mengatasi kendala-kendala dalam akses informasi di perpustakaan, proses pelayanan perpustakaan, dan pengarsipan data yang dilakukan secara manual. Sistem ini penggunaannya mudah, data yang disimpan akurat dan mudah dimutakhirkan, serta informasi data anggota dan koleksi perpustakaan dapat diakses kapan saja diperlukan melalui internet. Sistem ini dibangun dengan model website menggunakan script PHP dan database menggunakan My SQL.
