Perpustakaan Sebagai Ruang Literasi Digital Umat Islam

Abstract

The development of digital technology demands that Muslims possess adequate digital literacy skills to understand and utilize religious information critically and responsibly. In this context, libraries play a strategic role as digital literacy spaces that provide trusted sources of Islamic information grounded in scholarly traditions. This study aims to examine the role of libraries as digital literacy spaces for Muslims from a contemporary Islamic perspective. The study employed a literature review method with a descriptive qualitative approach through a review of relevant literature. The results indicate that the digital transformation of libraries further strengthens their role in enhancing digital literacy and fostering a moderate and contextual understanding of Islam. Despite challenges such as the digital literacy gap and limited curated collections, digital libraries offer significant opportunities for equitable access to knowledge and the preservation of Islamic scholarly treasures.
