ENG: Objective. The majority of special libraries fulfill the information needs of their work environment to support the development and improvement of the duties and functions of the institution and its human resources. However, several service innovations have been carried out by creating social inclusion-based service programs for the general public. One is the Center for Library and Dissemination of Agricultural Technology (PUSTAKA) of the Ministry of Agriculture, Indonesia. This research aims to provide an overview of how the PUSTAKA special library can be involved in creating service innovations for the public through social inclusion programs. Methods. The method used is a qualitative method with a library research approach. Results. The study results illustrate that PUSTAKA has extended its reach to communities with limited agricultural collections and information access. The library has also become a maker space for entrepreneurship awareness and creativity, enhancing the potential of the community related to agriculture. PUSTAKA serves as a knowledge hub for agriculture, boasting vast agricultural resources. Furthermore, the library uses information technology to provide virtual services, expanding its reach and promoting agricultural literacy in remote areas. PUSTAKA's multifaceted approach to serving the community highlights its commitment to agricultural education and inclusive social services. Conclusions. The research concludes that PUSTAKA as a special library has implemented social inclusion in contributing to the community by improving the skills of farmers, promoting agricultural literacy, and extending access to agricultural collections and information.

ENG: The university library has a fairly complete collection of books compared to other types of books found in other educational libraries. University libraries have a role in supporting student academic achievement. Academic achievement is thought to be related to reading ability and gender. The purpose of this study was to determine the reading ability of library collection textbooks related to academic achievement. The methodology used is the 1st experiment (N = 34) using Chi-square analysis; the second experiment (N = 34) with Chi-square analysis; and the third experiment (N = 37) with Chi-square analysis. The results showed that in the first experiment, academic achievement had a significant relationship with the reading method. In the second experiment, academic achievement had a significant relationship with reading ability. In the third experiment, academic achievement has a significant relationship with gender. The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd experiments were carried out in space, at different times and with different participants. The conclusion of this study shows that the method of reading well contributes to academic achievement. Grade point average (GPA) has a significant relationship with reading ability. Gender has a significant relationship with academic achievement.
Student Academic Achievement with the Ability to Read a Collection of Textbooks from the Library Collection
(Ukrainian State University of Science and Technologies, Dnipro, 2022) Prijana, P.; Yanto, Andri
ENG: Objective. The students’ academic achievement is related to their intelligence (IQ). Studies on factors that affect student academic achievement are still relatively limited and few. Purpose of this research is to consider student academic achievement with the ability to read a collection of textbooks from the library collection. Methods. The research method used is quantitative research. While the method of observation is experiment. Results. First hypothesis is academic achievement has a significant relationship with the good reading method. The hypothesis is accepted because academic achievement has a significant relationship with reading habits. Both the experimental group and the control group showed that academic achievement has a significant relationship with students reading methods, or it can be said that the good reading method is equivalent to students' reading habits. Second hypothesis, academic achievement has a significant relationship with students' reading ability is accepted. The calculated Chi-square count is greater than the Chi-square table. Third hypothesis, academic achievement has a non-significant relationship with access to information sources, meaning that the hypothesis is rejected. Conclusions. Student’s academic achievement had a significant relationship with the good reading method and a non-significant relationship with reading ability. Student’s academic achievement had a non-significant relationship with access to information sources.
