Abstract

The role of college libraries continues to evolve to become more inclusive, aiming to provide equitable access to resources for all students, including those with disabilities. AI offers great potential in this regard, enabling the creation of an "Inclusion Corner" in college libraries. This study discusses the application of AI technology to enhance accessibility and inclusivity in college libraries, using a descriptive qualitative design with a literature review method. The initial step of this research involves collecting secondary data from journal articles, books, reports, and other relevant sources. The results of this review indicate that AI can improve library accessibility through personalized services, sign language translation, and other accessibility support. Integrating AI technology can preserve and digitize library collections, making them more accessible to a broader audience, supporting the goal of building an Inclusion Corner in college libraries to provide equal access to digital information for all students. The British Library and the University of Liverpool Library are examples of successful AI implementation, using AI to organize digital collections and provide personalized reading recommendations. The main challenges in implementing AI include data privacy, staff training, the digital divide, budget constraints, user trust, and technological infrastructure. Integrating AI technology not only enhances accessibility but also personalizes the learning experience for students with disabilities. However, challenges such as the need for ongoing staff training and ensuring ethical AI use were identified. Future research should focus on developing more advanced AI applications and addressing the technical and ethical issues related to their use. With the right strategies and strong policies, college libraries can leverage AI to build effective Inclusion Corners, provide equal access to information, and support diversity and inclusion within the academic community.

This research discusses the important role of women's empowerment in alleviating poverty, preventing stunting, and managing local food in Ciamis Regency, West Java. Women's empowerment in Ciamis Regency has shown a significant contribution in supporting poverty alleviation, stunting prevention and local food management. Various programs, such as entrepreneurship training, nutrition education, and diversification of local food products, have empowered women socially and economically, increased household income, and supported community food security. In preventing stunting, women play a strategic role through nutrition and sanitation education, even though they still face challenges in the form of low public awareness, economic constraints and limited health infrastructure. In the local food management sector, women are involved in developing commodities such as fish, coffee and red chilies, which not only provide added economic value but also strengthen their role as agents of change in the community. Cross-sector support from government, community organizations and local communities has been an important factor in the success of these programs. However, challenges in the form of limited access to resources, social norms and digital literacy need to be overcome to ensure program sustainability. Overall, women's empowerment in Ciamis has great potential to support sustainable development, with a focus on increasing access to resources, education and effective cross-sector collaboration. This initiative makes a real contribution to reducing poverty, increasing food security and strengthening community welfare.

This research uses descriptive quantitative methods with observation, documentation and distributing questionnaires in the form of Google forms to K-Pop fans who actively use Weverse with 100 samples that have been determined using the Simple Random Sampling technique or samples chosen randomly. The data that has been obtained is then analyzed by carrying out validity tests, reliability tests, normality tests, linearity tests, correlation tests, F tests, T tests, and coefficient of determination. From this research, a significance value of 0.000 was obtained with the linear regression equation Y = 4.798 + 1.139X. With the calculation results of R Squere 0.818 which shows that there is an influence between variable X and variable Y of 81.8% and the remaining 18.2% is influenced by other factors. And the T test shows that there is a significant influence, which means that the use of the Weverse digital application is significantly effective in fulfilling the information needs of K-Pop fans in Indonesia

The rapid development of globalization through print and non-print media showcases a foreign culture that has resulted in a decrease in public awareness of local culture. This often happens in big cities in both developed and developing countries. Without preservation efforts from the government and public awareness, the existence of local culture will decline. The purpose of this research is to describe the role of local library content in efforts to preserve the culture of the Batu City community. The research method used is descriptive qualitative, with a single case approach. The theoretical basis used in this research is the function and purpose of the Library according to experts. Informants interviewed included the Library Coordinator, Librarian, and library users of Batu City Library. The data obtained was then analyzed using interactive data analysis techniques, namely data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that local content plays an important role in preserving community culture in Batu City Library. Through local content, the library functions as a tool for recording local history and stories, strengthening cultural identity, preserving and developing cultural heritage, and ensuring the continuity of cultural knowledge from one generation to the next. However, the library faces several obstacles, such as a lack of proactivity and collaboration from local publishers, and low public interest in local content. To overcome these obstacles, the library has made various efforts, such as book review activities, storytelling competitions, and local content writing training in English. Through these initiatives, the library is trying to increase public appreciation and awareness of the importance of local content, as well as strengthen local cultural identity in the midst of globalization.
