TITLE : BEST PRACTICES IN ACADEMIC LIBRARIES: A REVIEW
ABSTRACT: This review explores best practices in academic libraries, focusing on strategies that enhance user experience, information literacy, and resource accessibility. As institutions evolve in the digital age, libraries must adapt to meet the diverse needs of their communities. This paper identifies key areas of innovation, including the integration of technology, collaborative learning spaces, and robust online services. Additionally, the role of librarians as educators and facilitators in fostering critical thinking and research skills is emphasized. The review highlights successful case studies that demonstrate the impact of user-centered design and community engagement in library services. By examining these best practices, the study aims to provide a framework for academic libraries seeking to enhance their relevance and effectiveness in supporting teaching, learning, and research. Ultimately, the findings contribute to ongoing discussions about the future of academic libraries in an increasingly complex information landscape.
