“…ICT is a longer version of IT that focuses more on telecommunication, wireless, and audio-visual systems (Shastri & Chudasma, 2022). New immersive technologies are being used and adopted by libraries all over the world to improve their users' experiences and learning (Roy et al, 2022). Besides, Roy et al (2022), agreed that these new technologies are already influencing every industry, including academia (libraries).…”

A library is an organization that provides its services and facilities to the community to gain knowledge and eases the users to get the information needed according to their needs. UiTM libraries, belonging to the largest public university in Malaysia, have a tremendous challenge in ensuring that they serve the right resources to their users at the right time and fulfil their users’ satisfaction that relies upon the quality of services provided by them. Hence, the objective of this study is to assess the perceived service quality of PTAR UiTM Puncak Perdana services and facilities on users’ satisfaction. A total of 397 students of UiTM Puncak Perdana Campus, who use the library services, were randomly selected to participate in a survey using the SERVQUAL questionnaire which was distributed and collected personally by the researchers. A correlational analysis between SERVQUAL dimensions and users’ satisfaction was conducted using the IBM-SPSS AMOS version 24.0. This study revealed that there is a moderate positive relationship between all service quality dimensions and user satisfaction. It was concluded that service quality had a significant and positive impact on students’ satisfaction. Research has proven that student satisfaction is a good indicator of a university’s strengths and weaknesses, and higher learning institutions place a high priority on students’ satisfaction. Therefore, it is pertinent for the university to keep track of its library’s service quality from the users’ perspective regularly and ensure a high-quality service and facilities are available to fulfil its users’ satisfaction. More elaborated research on other related perspectives of users’ satisfaction with the library’s services and facilities may be conducted in the future to ensure that the libraries stay in demand and relevant despite the fast-revolving information technology.

“…According to Ellern and Cruz (2021), libraries must devise strategies to actively participate in shaping individuals' collective future, whether it be “real, virtual, or both”. Noteworthy VR/AR integration in academic library services includes the use of library tours and the Association of Research Libraries’ incorporation of Oculus Rift (Sample, 2020), High Tech Computer (HTC) Vive for digital scholarship (Greene and Groenendyk, 2020), myLibrARy to locate books and information within the library, Special Collection using Augmented Reality to Enhance Learning and Teaching (SCARLET) and Virtual Learning Center (VLC) (Roy et al , 2022).…”

Purpose This study aims to determine the extent of virtual reality (VR)/augmented reality (AR) adoption in university libraries in Indonesia and identify librarians’ views of library readiness. The assessment centers on two crucial dimensions: library readiness, gauged by commitment and efficacy, and librarian readiness, appraised through cognitive and affective aspects. Design/methodology/approach The research features a survey-based quantitative method. A sample of 259 librarians from university libraries, all members of the Indonesian Higher Education Library Forum, responded to the online survey. Findings Indonesian university libraries, especially in Central Java, express strong interest in VR/AR despite low current adoption. Librarians believe in their commitment and efficacy for adoption, with improvements needed in budget procurement and human resources. Librarians are optimistic about innovating academic activities with VR/AR, despite concerns about collaboration, data governance and human resource insecurity. The research underscores the simultaneous influence of librarians’ and libraries’ readiness on VR/AR adoption, emphasizing their interconnectedness and mutual support within library management. Practical implications There are practical implications for library institutions in Indonesia in terms of understanding the attendant opportunities and challenges when preparing organizational ecosystems. These findings provide a broad overview of VR/AR adoption in university libraries in Indonesia and contribute to understanding the specific needs and interests of universities in Indonesia considering adopting VR/AR. In addition to preparing adequate infrastructure, libraries should ensure the availability of adequate human resources. Originality/value In the Indonesian context, this study, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, makes the first attempt to examine the librarian’s view as part of library management to face the dilemmas that may arise during the adoption of VR/AR despite university libraries’ commitment and efficacy to enable this technology. This research also identifies librarians’ cognitive and affective readiness as individual characteristics and resources able to influence adequate adoption.
