STRATEGI INOVASI DIGITAL PERPUSTAKAAN DALAM MENINGKATKAN MINAT BACA SISWA DI SMAN 1 DRAMAGA

Abstract

This study examines the strategy of digital library innovation in improving students’ reading literacy at SMAN 1 Dramaga. The background of this research is based on the decreasing reading interest among students in the digital era, influenced by the dominance of social media and entertainment-based gadget usage. Although the school has implemented digital facilities such as the GIBAS application and online reading programs, the utilization of these facilities has not been fully optimized to strengthen students’ literacy culture. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the planning, implementation, effectiveness, and supporting and inhibiting factors of digital library innovation strategies in enhancing students’ reading literacy. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach. Data are collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving school administrators, librarians, teachers, students, and parents. The study is expected to reveal that digital library innovation can improve access to reading materials, increase student participation in literacy activities, and support more effective library management. However, several obstacles are also anticipated, including low student motivation to read, excessive use of gadgets for entertainment, and limitations in strategic management and program evaluation. The findings of this study are expected to provide strategic recommendations for developing sustainable and innovative digital library management to strengthen students’ reading literacy culture in the digital age.
