Fits with a library responsible for housing updated information in order to meet the user's needs on a daily basis, libraries in our digital era or arena need to make sure that applications of modern technology are applied in the library. Ensuring the relevance of the library as the source of information, this small action by using VR and AR in the library might be the small action that led towards the big leap.

This pandemic had caused many disadvantages for people that wanted to gained information but luckily now we were in digital age and nothing is impossible when it comes to gaining knowledges. The roles that libraries now doing which are to obtain and secure ownership of digital content that usually by licence, store it on local servers and make it accessable by particular community while the Internet facilitate the libraries to using those method so that people can still access the information that are hold within the libraries even they were in difficulties such as in a lockdown or so on.]]> 2022-04-05 06:28:33 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130094580 Dayang nur khairina https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130119442 The amounts of online platform and other digital sources of information are exploding and infrastructure for accessing material improves almost daily. In building the next generation of digital libraries, multimedia and artificial intelligence will play several important roles. The multimedia nature of digital libraries requires digital librarians for the locating of relevant information efficiently and cost- effectively and disseminating it in a wide variety of a formats of digital information system (DIS). The advent of digital libraries presents a plethora of challenges and opportunities to the digital librarian. Digital librarians add value and can make digital libraries truly useful and user friendly.]]> 2022-04-05 06:48:21 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130119442 2021875452 https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130158511 One of the roles of the library to make sure everyone gets to access the information in a digital era is to create an Online Library website. You do not need to walk into the library just to get information when you can access it online. Every Online Library provided so many services and benefits for the users to make sure everyone gets the information that they want. For example, Princeton University Library provided a catalog with different formats such as audio, book, journal, manuscripts and more based on what the users need. This helps their students to get access to the information via their devices only. Besides that, librarians do not have to be afraid if they could not assist all their users at the library because online libraries also could help the users the same with the services provided. ]]> 2022-04-05 07:17:35 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130158511 Elizsa Sarah https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130210012 The role of a library to facilitate access to information in a digital arena can be done by acquiring and securing ownership of digital content and make it accessible to the public or to a target community. Libraries can also make a digital access card like how the Toronto public library has. By having the digital card, people can have access to the library's digital sources and services such as ebooks,audiobooks, streaming videos and music, research databases, reserve a computer and online printing. Besides, the library also need to make sure that their information is up to date in this digital arena. The library's roles in facilitating access to information in digital arena is also by making sure that the library have application of modern technology. This action will help to make the library accessible in this digital arena.]]> 2022-04-05 07:53:44 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130210012 Electronic resources offered by University of Birmingham library 2021860558 https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130248189 As we all know, Covid-19 has given a major impact to all of us entire world. However, we are very lucky to have been in an era full of modern technology so called "digital era"  that gives pleasure to all. Therefore, to ensure everyone gets to access the information in a digital era is by providing online services to all users. By doing that, all the users actually can saving their time as well as their energy where you doesn't need to go to the library physically just to borrowing books to doing a research. With that, University of Birmingham provides Electronic resources to the users such as eBooks, eTextbooks, eJournals and eJournal articles, databases, using eResources on mobile devices, Open Access resources and Finding eResources outside FindIt@Bham. By having all those services, its ease all the users, not only to the users but to the librarians too where they could easily managing their works to be more organizing and effectively. To conclude, the existing of digital era brings good to us where all of the information in the internet just on the tip of our finger.]]> 2022-04-05 08:25:12 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130248189 2021460116 https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130310102 The library's role in facilitating access to information in a digital arena is by allowing the users to do book requests online. Since the pandemic covid-19 happened, it is hard for us to go out because we are scared of the virus and want to protect ourselves and our loved ones from getting infected. By allowing the users to do book requests online, we don't need to waste our time in the library searching for the books that we want. Besides, we can also know the availability of the books that we want to borrow by using this type of library service. For example, the Library of Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia provides this kind of service. ]]> 2022-04-05 09:11:37 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130310102 GabrielLouis1903 https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130616985 In this era of globalization, our world has experienced a Covid-19 epidemic since 2019. This has caused things that people always do like going to work, going to school and doing activities like exercising and so on to be disrupted. But, we are lucky, because the world nowadays is getting more sophisticated with the presence of technologies like smartphones, laptops, and so on. This has made it easier for humans to communicate with each other even far away. For everyone's information, colleges are looking to assume a critical part in the innovative work process. A significant component in the exploration cycle is the openness of data assets and administrations given by libraries. Postgraduate understudies are key makers of examination in colleges, and a significant component in their exploration cycle is the admittance to data. This study looks at postgraduate understudies' perspectives on the job of the scholastic library administrations in working with their examination and their fulfillment with the sources and administrations as of now given. Information was gathered from 375 arbitrarily chosen postgraduate understudies in four Malaysian state funded colleges. The discoveries show that the larger part (90.1%) of respondents recognized the significant job of library in working with research, and 72.5% of the respondents were happy with the ebb and flow job being played by the libraries. Nonetheless, certain regions should have been worked on like longer opening times for actual visits, despite the offices for remote access help for supporting understudies' examination. The discoveries will be valuable to scholarly libraries in offering better types of assistance to postgraduate understudies for their examination.]]> 2022-04-05 13:07:00 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130616985 hafshah https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130726564 The digital librarian is one of the methods of the library to provide information to the community. A type of specialist information professional who manages and organizes the digital library, combines the functionality for information, elicitation, planning, data mining, knowledge mining, digital reference services, electronic information services, representation of information, extraction, and distribution of information, co-ordination, searching notably CD-ROMs, online, Internet-based WWW, multimedia access and retrieval. The ultimate goal of a DL is to facilitate access to information just-in-time to the critical wants of end users and additionally to facilitate electronic publishing. The digital librarian plays a distinctive and dynamic role in easy accessing of computer held digital information]]> 2022-04-05 14:00:10 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130726564 2021884044 https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2130890491 The term "digital" covers the creation and distribution of all types of information over 
networks, digital library that delivers scientific, technical, and business information to 
users with a personal computer, Internet access, and one of the common worldwide 
Web browsers. The Library without Walls focuses on creating a network of 
knowledge systems that facilitate scientific communication and collaboration. We are 
living in the information age where the information is basic requirement to everybody 
because without information we cannot do anything in a proper way.
 In this case we need a proper bridge between user and knowledge so there the 
library plays a vital role in the knowledge dissemination. Now day’s information literacy is the key of knowledge where the libraries help us for getting their 
information. Library has provided several new media, new modes of studies, 
organizing, retrieving the information so that mean library strategically provides 
information to all users. Information Professional accomplishes this through the 
development, deployment, and management of information resources and services. So 
the main faction of the library in the digital era likes a communicator of information 
and for that libraries have become increasingly aware that their digital collections. 
Information and communication technology has revolutionized the concepts of 
libraries so each and every library slowly getting digitized. However, the main 
purpose of digital libraries remains consistent with that of traditional libraries in that 
the purpose of digital libraries is to organize, distribute, and preserve information 
resources just as it is for traditional libraries.

Library webpage can be access from multiple locations. The users can get his/her information on his own computer screen by using the Internet. Digital libraries can be accessed at any time, 24 hours a day and 365 days of the year. Library webpage also provide the ability to digitize a printed document, video, audio, or data, so that many users can access it simultaneously without the limits of attending a library building within opening hours. There are many advantages of library webpage. For example, the Yale Library provide very user-friendly interfaces, giving click able access to its resources. It helps they students to search for information easily. Yale Library also provide a personal librarians so that the library users can ask anything if they don't know something. ]]> 2022-04-05 17:35:22 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2131154407 2021488074 https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2132053319 In this pandemic era, all library should have their own library website. This will make it more easier for the society to access into the library's website to get some information regarding the SOPs during this pandemic era and more. The library management can create a system that people can access into it easily. For example, people can find any types of information that they want in the system for free. The system will send you a six-digit number as a code to your email so that you can access into the system. These website and system will make it easier for the society to access into it without going there physically during this pandemic.]]> 2022-04-06 06:07:19 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2132053319 Muhammad Hadeef https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2132676438 In this globalization era or Covid-19 era, every library must have Digital Library or Online Library because it is easy to use it. Because of Covid-19 for the past 2 years, right now there are many Online Library, or we called it as Online Public Access Catalogues that is OPAC in short form. These things can help maybe teenager to find their schoolwork and adult also can use it to find some information for their work. Digital Library is easy to use rather than you go to the public library to search some books that is hard to find it but in Digital Library when search the books that you want to borrow, the books will appear on the website.

In recent decades, through digitization and the power of online networks, digital technologies have provided librarians and archivists with new tools to organize information and distribute it more extensively, revolutionizing the way libraries and archives have developed and increased access to their resources and services. For example, libraries and archives had a well-developed strategy for conserving the material that comprised the majority of their collections: paper. The preservation method was centered on maintaining stable temperatures and relative humidity, avoiding floods and fires, and having well-organized shelves. In my perspective, knowledge preservation is ultimately about the future rather than the past. Hence, the future remains dependent on access to information from the past and will become much more so as digital technology affects the ways we forecast what will happen next.]]> 2022-04-07 11:41:42 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2134416003 2021450812 https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2134597537 Living in a modern era and full of technological sophistication makes people life more easier. It is because people can just access most of everything through online. For example online library services. The library's role in facilitating access to information in a digital arena is where the library can control over the content, its access and its longevity may no longer be appropriate and sustainable. Through this people can easily find a study materials and can access the library through online. This way also can avoid themselves from getting the Covid-19 virus spreading more and more in the future.]]> 2022-04-07 13:34:35 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2134597537 2021259672 https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2135681204 We are now in covid-19 era and era that every thing we should using internet to find something.so almost all library has a digital library or online library.This is because everyone who want to use library online easy to find any book or any information.And now library can offer information in the form,print,audio,video,microforms,numeric,computer programs,or multimedia composites of each in they digital library.For librarians,the most important issue is to provide the information in whatever form.The development in electronic access to scholarly journals is a key example of the shift from ownership to access.For me digital library is the most important in student life or librarians because of they always want to find information and study material.so that digital library can help them to find any study material and information and no need to go to public library or any library.they just using digital library.]]> 2022-04-08 02:43:33 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2135681204 2021464066 https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2142470268 As we all know, the COVID-19 pandemic has made it harder for people of various parties to physically enter the library and make researches. Despite that, with the presence of new technology in this modern era, we are able to effortlessly access to the data inside library without being present there physically. This is because the library has a role in facilitating access to information in a digital arena. Most libraries nowadays give an easy access to their users by providing online website or OPAC. For example, National Library of Malaysia provides this kind of service for its users. The online library not only prevents the spreading of the virus but also provide an easier way for the users to find information as they can find them via online website wherever they are and whenever they want. However, in my opinion, an online library service should be as convenient as the physical library service and easy to be adapted by people of all age in order to gain information without facing any difficulties. I would suggest the library to create a tutorial for the users beforehand so that they would not feel lost and confused while trying to find information using the online library service.]]> 2022-04-13 14:19:25 UTC https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2142470268 NOUVELLA ANAK JILAN https://padlet.com/nurfa601/lpz2buejwyu0pj1n/wish/2142896128 Role library digital in this site can increase share in the UK market, including mobile apps and discovery systems.

The development of the Internet, technologies and social media have changed the way human live. We are in an era where people, especially the youths and generation Z cannot be separated from internet and social media platforms. Librarians nowadays have a more active roles unlike before, where they used to have a passive roles. They are no longer

This has caused a major shift in the responsibilities of librarians, who are not only engaged in collection development but are also entrusted to provide advanced technological services, as well as generating financial resources for their respective institutions. This change has become easier in the electronic information era as information is treated as the ultimate resource. Computers and networks are expected to play an increasingly important role for resource sharing and information management. Use of information and communications techonology (ICT) is now treated as an essential technology for libraries. Emerging technologies, media, publishing trends, information storage methods, information retrieval practices, and more have changed the concept of library and information services.
