THE IMPLEMENTATIONOF PORTAL UNION CATALOG SERVER SULSELLIB BASED ON SENAYAN LIBRARY MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS (SLIMS)

In line difficult with the development of age, the system to search for information has been extremely advanced, so to look for information is not at all forinformation seekers.Technology is continually developing to make human easier in doing their daily activities and in fulfilling their needs of information. It is because information has become their primary need which has to be fulfilled. Government regulation of Republic of Indonesia No. 24, 2014 on the implementation of law No. 43, 2007 on Cooperation and Public Participation,Article 42 Paragraph (3) which generally explains that the cooperation as what it means in article (1) and improvement of service as what it means in article (2) is done by utilizing library network system based on the technology of information and communication'. The use of technology in the field of thelibraryshould be applied to It facilitate librarian or information seeker when they would like to find information. simply means that technology bridges librarian and library. The importance of information in the age of technology like now places information as a determining point in almost every activity in society. In the field of business and economy, information is a precious commodity. In exploring the collection of books in thelibrary, library users usually use catalog either manually or the one which is already based on technology like OPAC (Online Public Acces Catalog). However, if they onlyuse themanual catalog or even OPAC, they can only search for information in one library.Definitely, it would not be a problem if theycould find what they would like to look for. Nonetheless, if it was not the case, this would be a problem for them. Hence, the system which is able to simultaneously utilize various catalogs is made to solve this problem. In a more specific meaning, it is a system which can show library users all of the collections from various libraries which are joined in that system. The access to find any information becomes wider because it is not only centralized in one library, but also in every library which is registered in such system. It is possible to do so by using catalog from each library and entering the database of that system. The system which covers catalog fromall of thelibraries is called as Union each CatalogThe union catalog is a combination or collection of some library catalogs showing theamountof collection which is available in library to give information to library users in any libraries containing the collection they are looking for. One of the the union catalog developers in Indonesia is Senayan Library Management Systems(SLiMS) Community. SLIMS Community has vision automation to system unite all of application. thelibraries in Indonesia using SLiMS Many union catalogs have been developed in accordance with the area where the community is located such as Jogjalib Portal UCS (http://ucs.jogjalib.net),Jatimlib Portal UCS (http://ucs.jatimlib.net), Primurlib Portal UcCs http://ucs.primurlib.net), and so forth. All union catalogs above use UCS based on SLIMS. In South Sulawesi, the union catalog has been developed, namely Portal UCS Sulsellibwhich address is http://ucs.sulsellib.net. This union catalog expected training to be able to accommodate all catalogs of bibliography from all libraries in South Sulawesi. This research is closely related to previous research explaining the of Management automation Systems (SLiMS) system for based thestaff on of Senayan Islamic Library school in SouthSulawesi. The research recommended the importance of paying close attention to the aspect of convenience in using such application of automation system both in function of theavailable menu and in serving module material of given training. The expectation is thatSLiMS application can be intensively used by most of thelibrarians in anlslamic school in implementing automation system in South Sulawesi. According to R. and Srinivasaragavan, the fundamental principle in possible creating a union catalog is the controlled harvesting of data of the broadest scope, with the aim of creating a concentrated information base and a qualitatively and quantitatively rich source of secondary documents (records). Then, to build Portal UCS Sulsellib is considered very important to unite all library catalogs based on SLIMS so that they can be connected to each other and make it easier for users in searching any information of collection because it is only done by utilizing one portal of theweb, namely http://ucs.sulsellib.net, which is harvesting all of the data from the libraries, Portal UCS Sulsellib is still in a developing stage, so there are so many things to do to make it more developed. SLIMS Community is carrying out the renewal of such portal by developing some aspects, the same as Chand and Chauhan’, the development of a union catalogue is a continuous process, which needs consistent collaboration and participation from member libraries. It explains a union catalog is a sustainability thing. From what has been elaborated above, the highly interested in a research concerning with Portal UCS Sulsellib, with the writer title Library is “The Implementation of Portal Union Catalog Server Based on Senayan Management Systems (SLiMS) in South Sulawesi, Indonesia”. Based by on the problem of formulation, the purposes of this research areto know the implementation of Portal UCS Sulsellib carried out SLIMS Community, to know the obstacles which SLiMS Community deals in applying Portal UCS Sulsellib, and to know the expectation of SLIMS Community as the developer of Portal UCS Sulsellib. The research is highly expected to be able to give benefits to science in general and readers. The benefit which is expected to be actualized in this research istheoretically, to give more knowledge about thetechnology of information applied in the field of library, especially regarding the Sulsellib.net online union catalog. Practically, the developer that, in this case, is SLIMS Community, they can use this research as areference to update the union catalog system.

he method of this research is thequalitative approach, which is a descriptive research. A qualitative approach is a research that produces ananalysiswhich is not based on statistical analysis procedure or any other quantification way.The data sources can be divided into two parts, namely primary and secondary data. The primary data are obtained by doing interview process with some of SLiIMS Community members as thedeveloper of Portal UCS Sulsellib. The secondary data are literature, journal, article, and reliable website. The subject of this research is some of Sulsellib SLiMS Community members who are believable to be as informants, like Ahmad Adil, S.Sos (a member of Sulsellib SLiMS community, lecturer in science of library in UIN Alauddin, and librarian at the library of FKM UNHAS), Taufiq Mathar, SPd., MLIS (member of Sulsellib SLIMSCommunity and lecturer in science of library), and Muh. Azwar, MHum (coordinator of Sulselib SLiMS community and a lecturer in library science). The support techniques of data collection to obtain information to this research are observation, interview, and documentation.After the data are collected, we undergo reduction of raw data of which are selected and simplified and its information is taken. The information is presented in writing based on factual cases which are interrelated. The researcher observes Portal UCS Sulsellib directly through http://ucs.sulsellib.net/ Display data are used as a tool to understand whattheyactually are. is Then, the conclusion is inferred from the data based on the data analysis that has already been done.The technique of testing of data validity obtained exertion, through triangulation, and deep observing activities, improving exertion ,tringulation analysis and analysis of thenegative case using reference materials and holding mwembercheck.

1. A.Implementation of Portal UCS Sulsellib common union catalog is a place for libraries in giving information those libraries have bibliographic collection needed by users. Portal UCS Sulsellib is an example of common union catalog which is online and functions as adissemination tool that A.Planning In this stage, SLIMS Community plans to extend the scope of Portal UCS Makassarlib. Thus, it is changed to be Portal UCS Sulsellib so that it can accommodate catalogs from various libraries outside Makassar. Portal UCS Sulsellib is a metamorphosis of Portal UCS Makassarlib which has the same purpose with a different scope why this is accommodate It Portal all UCS libraries Sulsellib in South is created, Sulawesiln that is to addition, maintenance of online union Portal catalog is easier to use because it can be accessed only by one portal. It will be more difficult to organize more than one portal. The search of library materials will be more effective if it is only through one portal. means that only by accessing one portal on theinternet, it is enough to find needed materials. b. c. Analysis This stage is an analysis of system from Portal UCS Sulsellib that is to know whether it is sufficient to fulfill library need in uniting catalogs in one system. Apart from analyzing library needs, SLIMS Community also analyzes weaknesses in that portal, so it latercan berestored and renewed. Display Design In this stage, SLiIMS Community makes interface display design of Portal UCS Sulsellib, where this portal display should be gives User-Friendlyandeasy to use by users. Display design of this portal emphasis on function than aesthetic value. However, it does not necessarily mean that it ignores the aesthetics of portal display at all. provides information to users, especially users in South Sulawesi. The method used in applying this Portal UCS Sulsellibis based on Systens Development Life Cycle (SDLC), which is a process to understand how a system of information can support planning, development, and utilization of thesystem. There are several models which are developed on the basis of SDLC and one of them is Linear Sequential model, but it is better known as the waterfall model. In the implementation of Portal UCS Sulsellib, the waterfall model is used to seethe process of implementation in South Sulawesi. Even though this portal interface display design is not prioritized, but SLIMS Community still consider the aesthetic value so that users do not feel bored when they access portal. Figure 2 : Portal UCS S:llSE]llb ‘Interface (source: http:/ /ucs.sulsellib.net/index.php) These are the explanations of the above picture: (1) Logo of Portal UCS Sulsellib, (2) Page per page, (3) Sub Menu of (6) Portal UCS Sulsellib, (4) Search box, (5) List of library location, List of bibliography which has been already indexed, (7) Amount of titles of bibliography which has been indexed, (8) Amount of Portal UCS Sulsellib member, (9) Link to Sulsellib website, (10) Link to SLiMS website, (11) Link to Indonesia One Search (IOS) website, and (12) Two pictures asbackground, which automatically changes every few seconds. d. Promotion SLIMS Community promotes Portal UCS Sulsellib in several media and opportunities, for example by using Facebook. Through Makassar SLiMSgroup, the promotion of this portal is introduced to the group members. @ = - e ————— < Figure 3: Sulsel Makassar SLiMS Group on Facebook (source: http:/ /www.facebook com/ groups /2172565499756 T?refid=27) As the biggest social media in the world, Facebook becomes the main choice of SLIMS Community to introduce Portal UCS Sulsellib. Besides, the people who are eager to know more about this portal can duecfl v ask the group. Figure 4: Promotion in Group of Facebook (Social Media) ol (source: http:/ /www.facebook com,/ groups /2172565499756 T?refid=27) Besides Facebook, SLIMS Community also does promotion using the website of SulsellibSLIMSCommunity, which its web address is,http://www sulsellib.net/. The website containsarticles about library and literature. This website also contains areport of activities done by SLiMSCommunitythroughout South Sulawesi. o Figure 5: Sulsellib.net [Website sesao0 - (Sumber: http://www.sulsellib.net) An effective promotion activity which has a significant impact is when we do training of automation system in regions. e. Implementation This society stage is the main point of the implementation of Portal UCS Sulsellib, where the location has already beenknown by by the way of socialization done by SLIMS Community in regions. The efforts of SLIMSCommunity to apply Portal UCS Sulsellib in South Sulawesi areby means of socialization and training done in regions, and by giving information about the union catalog portal in social media and website. The training which is carried out by SLiMSCommunity isabout the way of using that Portal UCS Sulsellib, like in search of abook. Figure 6: Book Search (Sumber: http:/ /www.ucs.sulsellib.net) Just by typing the keywordof book title on thesearch box, and pressing the enter button, the result of thesearch will appear like in the following picture. The result of thesearch of thebook appears on the first and a brief description of abibliographyof thebook appears, such as thename of theauthor, call number and the location of the book. This training participants andthey receives are even a big very appreciation enthusiastic from join thetraining. By this training, the libraries in theregion are invited to to join Portal UCS Sulsellib. So, besides carrying out the training of the way to use Portal UCS Sulsellib, the participants who are librarians asked to register their libraries as members of Portal UCS Sulsellib. Up to now, SLIMS Community is still continually doing socialization either by training or by social media. Many libraries are joined and most of them are from Makassar. f. 2. Maintenance In users this stage, SLiMSCommunity starts to perform maintenance, such as continuous lease payment of domain and hosting in order that Portal UCS Sulsellib can still be accessed by andto add hosting capacity when the number of thedatabase has reached the limit and to perform backup source code and database. In additionthe checking of thesystem is periodically carried out to find bugs or errors in the system and then to fix it, as well as contact the hosting provider when the server is paralyzed. The difficulties experienced by SLiMS Community in the implementation of Portal UCS Sulsellib Some of thebarriers faced by SLIMS community in the implementation of portal UCS Sulsellib : a. Human resources The lack Sulsellib of sometimes thebustle of each human resources to manage Portal UCS causes of troubles SLIMS to this portal due to Community member. Some administrators are lecturers and librarians. b. Management fund The next trouble is the lack of fund. SLIMS Community is an independent government so that community the income which fund is not only under comes the from adonationby people who care about SLIMS Community and Portal UCS Sulsellib c. d. 3. Structure of organization has not been applied yet Structure of organization is a unit of work in one organization. It shows the main task and function of each member of anorganization based on his or her position. SLIMS Community has not applied an organizational structure, so there is a lack of coordination among members. This situation causes the development process of Portal UCS Sulsellibto slow down and the implementation process to all regions in South Sulawesihas not spread out. It also causes the lack of development of Portal UCS Sulsellib. be Lack of Support from Government in South Sulawesi To more flexible in the implementation ofPortal UCS Sulsellibto regions, we need cooperation and coordination with provincial government and the local area with the library in that area. However, there has been, in fact, no cooperation cartied out by agency and institution, so the implementation of this portal does not receive full support from the government. The expectation of SLiMS community to Portal UCS Sulsellib in the future In the previous discussion, the researcher has answered the first and the implementation second of problem Portal UCS formulation; Sulsellib, those and are the hindrances experienced anonline by union SLIMS catalog. Community in the implementation of In this part, the hopes of Community for Portal UCS Sulsellib will be statedas follows: a. SLiMS SLiMS Community Member must grow and be more effective SLIMS community is not fully active in developing Portal UCS Sulsellib because each of the members has his or her own activities. b. Development of Portal UCS Sulsellib is Supported by Government Lack of support from theprovincial and local government makes the development of Sulsellib Portal UCS grows slowlyand it is only to undergo promotion and normal training.With ~ the cooperation and coordination from thegovernment, it is expected to be able to jointly develop Portal UCS Sulsellib so that the portal can be well known and utilized by all levels of society; especially those who are in South Sulawesi. . South Sulawesi Society can use Portal UCS Sulsellib The use of Portal UCS Sulsellib by Society in South Sulawesi is still low. It isindicated many people are still not familiar with the online union catalog.

After be undertaking research about the implementation of Portal Union Catalog Server (UCS), the researcher infers a few points, Portal UCS Sulsellib has been applied as means of information that can used collection. by The Society in South Sulawesi to find thebibliographic implementation which has already been done by SLIMS Community is properly based onWaterfall Model, which is planning, analysis, maintenance. There display are design, some promotion, implementation,and obstacles experienced SLIMS Community in applying Portal UCS Sulsellib, those arehuman resources, management fund, lack of structure of theorganization, and by lack of support from thegovernment.The expectations of SLiMS Community for Portal UCS Sulsellibis that members of SLiMS Community can continually grow and more active, the development of Portal UCS Sulsellib can get support from the provincial government in South Sulawesi, and society in South Sulawesi can optimally use the Portal UCS Sulsellib. Here is the suggestion from the researchers regarding Portal UCS Sulsellib. In the development of Portal UCS Sulsellib, it needs two parties working together, which are, in this SLiMS Community and provincial government of South Sulawesi, to develop case, the portal, where the provincial government suggests to every local government to do socialization and training regarding Portal UCS Sulsellib and recommend every local library to join Portal UCS Sulsellib. With the merging of all local libraries in South Sulawesi, the database will also grow in that portal system, so society can easily and fastlyfind bibliographic collections.
