Accessibility of uin Sunan Kalijaga Library for Students with Disabilities: an Evaluation
(Ukrainian State University of Science and Technologies, Dnipro, 2024) Marwiyah, Marwiyah; Zain, Labibah; Yuna Chasanawati, Asri; Khotimah, Khusnul
ENG: This research aims to identify the accessibility of UIN Sunan Kalijaga Library for users with disabilities to uncover the gap between the standard of library services for people with disabilities and the condition of the library to support an accessible environment. This research applies qualitative methods to explore the accessibility of library services for users with disabilities using the IFLA checklist, a standard for providing library services for people with disabilities consisting of 3 main areas; physical access, media format, and service and communication. UIN Sunan Kalijaga Library has met the most of criteria for providing services for users with disabilities. Physical access that covers outside the library, getting into the library and access to library collections and services mostly has met the standard. However, the absence of an elevator prevents users with wheelchairs from accessing the upper floor in which the library collections are stored which means that access to library collections is hindered. To address this problem, the library provides the Difable Corner, a department for users of all types of disabilities. The research also found that for library collections, the library provides more for the blind, while for the deaf it is still not maximized. Therefore, the library, in collaboration with the Center for Disabilities Service provides volunteers for students who are not yet fulfilled. Being under the parent institution that promotes inclusive value requires UIN Sunan Kalijaga Library to provide an inclusive environment that welcomes all users regardless of their abilities. The library has made some effort to fulfill the standards for providing a library for the disabled. The gap between ideal standards and real conditions in the library related to accessibility for the disabled can be considered to improve inclusive-based library services.
Transforming Libraries into Inclusive Spaces: the Contributions of Living Collection in Academic Library of Indonesia
(Ukrainian State University of Science and Technologies, Dnipro, 2024) Firdaus, Fadlan Agustina; Saufa, Arina Faila
ENG: This research aims to understand the concept of a living collection as an inclusive service implemented in the UIN Sunan Kalijaga library and how a living collection plays a role in transforming inclusive-based libraries. This research uses qualitative methods, which collects data through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data that has been obtained is then analysed by reducing the data, presented in the form of text and descriptions, and drawing conclusions related to the research questions. The research results show that the Living Collection concept combines an inclusive approach and knowledge management concept by raising inclusive issues and unique knowledge owned by individuals. Living Collection contributes inclusive space as a human form by presenting it through the functions of academic libraries, including educational, informational, preservation, research, and recreational functions. Living collection contributes to building inclusive spaces and respecting differences by fulfilling the function of academic libraries through collections in the form of humans.
Turning Open Science to Reality: the Role of Academic Libraries (presentation)
(Ukrainian State University of Science and Technologies, Dnipro, 2024) Tautkeviciene, Gintare; Cesevičiūtė, Ieva
ENG: Recent decades have brought a wealth of open access and open science developments on the level of policy, infrastructure and competence. However, openness has not become an inherent quality of science yet. The presentation reflects on the case of open science related initiatives and practices at the Library of Kaunas University of Technology in Kaunas, Lithuania, and discusses the opportunities and obstacles that academic libraries may encounter when they try to engage with open science.
