Abstract

A hybrid library is an innovative concept that integrates traditional print resources with modern digital collections and services, creating a unified platform for information access. This study proposes the establishment of a hybrid library designed to address the evolving needs of users in an increasingly digital world while preserving the value of print materials. The proposed system aims to enhance accessibility, flexibility, and efficiency through the use of advanced technologies such as digital catalogues, online databases, and automated library management systems. It also seeks to provide a user-friendly environment that bridges the gap between conventional library practices and modern information management. The research highlights the significance, components, and expected impact of implementing a hybrid library in an educational institution, emphasizing the role of technology in promoting learning and research.
