University libraries play a strategic role in supporting academic learning and research. This study aims to evaluate user perceptions of library service management at UIN Madura, focusing on five key dimensions: clarity of service information, effectiveness of staff coordination, organizational structure support, simplicity of service procedures, and consistency of orientation for new users. The study used a quantitative approach with a survey method. Data were collected through an online Google Form-based questionnaire distributed to active UIN Madura students from various study programs, resulting in 21 valid respondents from diverse academic backgrounds. Data analysis was conducted descriptively using frequency distribution and percentages. The results indicate that user perceptions of library governance are generally quite positive. The majority of respondents gave good ratings to the clarity of service information (85.7% agreed or strongly agreed), the effectiveness of staff coordination (81%), and the organizational structure support (90.5%). However, the new user orientation dimension received the lowest rating, with 23.8% of respondents disagreeing or strongly disagreeing. These findings indicate the need for a more systematic and sustainable strengthening of the library orientation program. Overall, the service management and governance of the UIN Madura library were assessed as quite good. However, improvements are still needed in the aspects of socialization and guidance for new users so that this university library service can function optimally in supporting the academic community.

This study aims to systematically analyze the literature on the implementation of external evaluation systems and accreditation management in improving the quality of Islamic education. It also seeks to provide a more comprehensive understanding of best practices that can be applied by Islamic educational institutions in responding to increasingly complex quality demands. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method with the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) approach, this study identifies themes, strategies, and challenges found in previous studies. Articles were identified from Google Scholar, Garuda, and ScienceDirect databases within the 2012–2024 period. The selection process involved a step-by-step screening of titles and abstracts, resulting in 15 main articles for further in-depth review. The findings indicate that external evaluation functions as a strategic instrument to enhance accountability, transparency, and quality control in educational institutions. Key themes identified include the importance of a Total Quality Management (TQM) culture, the strategic role of Management Information Systems (MIS) in data governance, and the gap between administrative compliance and substantive quality improvement. This study concludes that effective accreditation management requires a shift from a bureaucratic approach toward a culture of continuous improvement integrated with Islamic values and oriented toward overall educational quality enhancement.

This study aims to analyze strategies for optimizing the management of the library of the Majelis Ulama Indonesia (MUI) of Sumatera Utara Province in carrying out its role as an authoritative center for Islamic literacy and information. As an institution overseeing the Pendidikan Tinggi Kader Ulama (PTKU), the library holds a strategic position but faces challenges in terms of standardization and digital adaptation. The method employed is a descriptive qualitative study examining aspects of collection management, compliance with the National Library Standards (SNP), and the implementation of information technology. The findings indicate that the MUI North Sumatra Library possesses notable strengths in its collection of centuries-old classical kitab kuning manuscripts and unique documents from scholars’ deliberative forums (muzakarah). Optimization efforts include manuscript digitization using the Senayan Library Management System (SLiMS), management training for PTKU students, and the integration of information services through the organization’s official portal. The study concludes that strengthening human resource capacity, ensuring sustainable budget support, and meeting physical facility standards are key factors in transforming the library into an intellectual beacon of Islam in the Media 4.0 era.

Equal access to education is a crucial issue in Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia. Ensuring that all students, without exception, have equal access to quality education is vital for the advancement of education in the country. In this context, Management Information Systems (MIS) play a crucial role in enhancing the efficiency, effectiveness, and transparency of educational services. The implementation of MIS can streamline administrative processes, improve decision-making, and facilitate more equitable access to educational resources. This research employs a literature study approach, relying on books and journal articles as primary sources. The findings indicate that the application of MIS provides significant benefits in terms of planning, management, and evaluation. By providing real-time data, MIS enables educational institutions to make better decisions, monitor student progress, and allocate resources more effectively. Additionally, MIS enhances the transparency of educational services, ensuring that all stakeholders—students, parents, and educators—have access to important information related to educational processes and outcomes. However, challenges in the implementation of MIS remain, such as technical barriers related to inadequate infrastructure and limited access to technology, as well as human resource issues like insufficient training. To address these challenges, the research recommends providing comprehensive training programs for educators and administrators, investing in technological infrastructure, and promoting data integration across educational institutions. Overall, while MIS offers many advantages in promoting equal educational access, addressing technical and human resource challenges is crucial to fully realizing its potential in Islamic educational institutions in Indonesia.

The results of the study indicate that the tahfidz program is implemented through tiered stages starting from the formulation of the institution's vision, mission, and objectives, then translated into the form of a tahfidz program as the main program. The findings of this study confirm that the planning of the tahfidz program at the Tebuireng 08 Islamic Boarding School (Pondok Pesantren Tebuireng 08) adheres to strategic management principles, particularly through a trend-watching mechanism that takes into account the internal and external conditions of the Islamic boarding school. This makes the planning more implementable and focused on achieving the desired goals. Furthermore, the program's success is supported by a continuous evaluation mechanism that allows for dynamic improvements and adjustments. Thus, this study emphasizes that the success of the tahfidz program is determined not only by spiritual aspects, but also by strategic management that is systematic, planned, and adaptive to environmental changes.
