Abstract
The integration of digital library management systems plays a crucial role in fostering digital literacy and enhancing information accessibility. This study explores the impact of the Senayan Library Management System (SLiMS) in developing digital literacy skills through a narrative literature review of 20 scientific articles. The analysis identifies three key contributions of SLiMS: (1) enhanced access to digital resources, allowing users to develop advanced information retrieval skills; (2) improved digital competencies among librarians, facilitating efficient library management; and (3) increased user engagement, promoting collaborative learning through digital interactions. However, despite these advantages, challenges persist, including technical constraints, digital literacy gaps, and resource disparities among institutions. This study underscores the importance of comprehensive librarian training programs and the continuous development of user-friendly features to optimize SLiMS’s role in digital literacy. The findings align with broader digital transformation theories in library sciences, reinforcing the significance of integrated digital platforms in shaping modern information literacy. Future research should explore the long-term impact of SLiMS on literacy rates and assess its adaptability across diverse educational and library environments.
