Literasi Informasi Mahasiswa STAIN Kudus dalam Memanfaatkan Digital Library

Abstract

The rapid development of technology is responded by the world of education, especially the library by metamorphosed its service form from manual to digital. One of them is the availability of digital library with EPrints application. At STAIN Kudus, after just over a year of application, only a few students have enough information literacy in the use of EPrints as their reference resource for completing their college assignments, while most others still do not have information literacy. Those who are literate have the ability of tool literacy, resource literacy and research literacy, while the ability of publishing literacy has not yet been mastered by them. The dominant cause of the lack of the illiterate of STAIN Kudus Students is their unfamiliarity in using digital media. They are still common to use references and library services in manual. The unfamiliarity is caused by the lack of the massive socialization done by the library and lecturers in stimulating students as an independent literacy society in learning and seeking information.
