The Challenge · 面临的挑战

A Province-Scale Library With No Digital Infrastructure to Match Its Scale

DPK Kepri manages over 27,000+ titles and 162,000+ physical copies across multiple service locations throughout the Kepulauan Riau archipelago. Despite the scale of the collection, every service touchpoint was manual or required citizens to be physically present.

Membership registration meant visiting the library, being photographed on-site, and waiting for a physical card. Cataloging staff had no structured workflow, no barcode generation, and no standardized metadata system. There was no searchable public catalog and no meaningful web presence to connect the library with the communities it serves.

Bureaucratic Membership Process

Citizens had to visit in person, be photographed at the counter, and wait for a physical card — with no digital alternative and no access for citizens outside Tanjungpinang.

No Searchable Public Catalog

27,000+ titles with no online search capability — citizens could not check collection availability, filter by category, or plan a visit without calling or walking in.

Disconnected Internal Operations

Cataloging, labeling, circulation, and reporting were handled in separate tools with no integration — creating data inconsistencies and inefficient staff workflows.

三大核心挑战:会员注册流程繁琐、馆藏无法在线检索、内部各岗位系统互不连通。

Architecture Background
Our Solution · 解决方案架构

One Platform. Two Systems. Seven Roles. A Complete Digital Operation.

We built an integrated two-part platform: a public-facing portal website for citizen self-service, and a Library Management System for internal operations. Both share a single data layer, and access is structured through seven distinct roles to match specific staff functions.

一套平台,双系统架构,七类角色权限,所有数据实时同步。

Public Portal Website

The Public Layer — Self-Service for Every Citizen

Role: Services Role: Membership
  • OPAC Catalog Search Full collection search with DDC filtering and advanced multi-parameter queries.
  • Online Membership Register from any device, upload selfie, receive digital card via WhatsApp instantly.
  • Book Renewal Online Extend loan periods directly from the portal without visiting the library counter.
  • Librarian Live Chat Real-time chat with librarians via Tawk.to for service and collection queries.
  • News, Events & CMS Dynamic content publishing with admin-managed menus, banners, and pages.

Library Management System

The Operational Layer — Built for Staff Efficiency

Visitor Log Processing Publication Circulation Desk
  • MARC Cataloging & Review MARC 21 metadata input with 2-step validation before OPAC publication.
  • Barcode Label Generation Auto-generated print-ready labels with DDC call numbers and spine bands.
  • Circulation Module Borrowing, returns, and visit logging with barcode scanning for fast service.
  • Publication CMS News, announcements, events, and media library managed seamlessly.
  • Reporting & WA Gateway Real-time reports plus automated WhatsApp registration/return reminders.
System in Action · 系统实际运作

From New Book Arrival to Labeled Shelf Item — Fully Systemized

从新书编目、审批上架到条形码标签生成,全流程系统化,稳定提升馆务效率。

MARC Cataloging

MARC Cataloging & Review

New acquisitions are processed through a full MARC 21 input form — including ISBN, DDC, author, edition, publisher, subject headings, copies per UPT, and high-resolution cover images. Each entry undergoes a rigorous two-step verification where records are submitted by the Processing role and meticulously audited by the Review role before being published to the OPAC.

This high-standard workflow ensures absolute data integrity and catalog quality across more than 27,000 titles, providing a reliable and professional search experience for both librarians and the general public across the archipelago. The system also handles complex multi-location availability tracking automatically.

Barcode Labels

Barcode Label System

The system automates the entire logistical preparation for physical items by generating print-ready barcode labels instantly upon cataloging—eliminating the need for external design tools. Each label is strictly formatted according to Perpustakaan Daerah standards: library header, DDC call number, copy notation, and unique inventory numbers.

To aid physical shelf navigation, the system also generates color-coded DDC spine bands, allowing staff and visitors to locate collections within the stacks more efficiently. This seamless integration from digital entry to physical labeling has significantly reduced book processing time, allowing the library to scale its collection rapidly.

OPAC Pgs

The OPAC was built with DDC-based category filtering, multi-parameter advanced search, and a clean public interface — allowing any citizen to find a title, author, or subject without library training. The catalog is backed by MARC-structured metadata maintained through the two-role cataloging workflow.

GSC Performance Chart

Before the rebuild, the library website attracted fewer than 5,000 monthly visitors with no search presence. The new portal was built with SEO as a core technical requirement — clean URLs, CMS-managed meta tags, sitemap generation, structured data, mobile-first rendering, and fast page performance.

Library Engagement · 实体到馆增长

Better Digital Access Brought More People Through the Doors

Improved online discoverability and self-service capability did not reduce physical attendance — it grew it. Visitor data throughout 2025 shows a consistent upward trend, peaking at 5,900+ in October — a 93% increase from the year's lowest month.
