DISRUPTION: MOBILE DIGITAL LIBRARY IN INDONESIA

Abstract

In the disruptive era of the industrial revolution 4.0 as it is today, there are almost no difficulties in fulfilling information. Good information that is educational or information that is entertainment. Information also takes various forms, both in the form of writing to information in the form of videos that we can easily get. In this era of information dissemination, there are many things in life that must change in order to continue to exist and not be eroded by the times. Self-adjustment and capacity building need to be done so as not to be left behind and always be efficient. One of the professions that is engaged in the information sector and really needs to adapt to the conditions of this era of disruption is the librarian.

Technological disruption is defined by Millar, Lockett, Ladd (2017) in Mardiana (2018) as technology that can potentially create innovation disruptions in products, services or business processes at every level, such as industrial structure, industry segmentation and social systems (changes in social relations).

The presentation of this study was carried out in a descriptive narrative and qualitative in-depth in explaining the discussion of the study. Narrative-descriptive and qualitative styles try to construct reality, and understand the meaning that interprets its meaning so that it is necessary to pay attention to processes, events and authenticity (Somantri, 2005).

Disruption and development of information technology today has affected libraries. This development can be seen from how technological disruption has made many applications, not only e-commerce, but also mobile libraries eventually emerge. In Indonesia, the application of mobile libraries is quite common, both in public libraries and university libraries.
