Abstract
In Indonesia, there are currently 4,414 Taman Bacaan Masyarakat (TBM), or public reading parks, which are registered with the Ministry of Education and Culture and in Banten, there are currently a total of 243 public reading parks that have been registered. However, the survey on management of public reading parks in Indonesia conducted by Lentera Pustaka Public Reading Park (June 30, 2019) concluded that 64% of reading parks in Indonesia were visited by no more than 30 children [4]. The development of digital technology today certainly brings challenges and opportunities in improving the culture of literacy in society. One of the current challenges is the high internet penetration among the younger generation, which is not accompanied by healthy internet behavior. However, digital technology also has the opportunity to expand the penetration of public reading parks, reading houses, public libraries, and literacy communities so that it can directly increase the number of public visits to public reading parks. In addition, public reading parks are still managed conventionally and the use of information technology in public reading parks is not optimal. This study tries to develop a digital library software with the name e-Kadigi, which was developed based on the needs of the public reading park. System requirements are identified and analyzed using the Open Group Architecture Framework (TOGAF) in order to obtain a complete overview and a comprehensive approach to designing, planning, implementing, and managing the information system architecture of public reading park. The results of this study are expected to provide an overview of the characteristics of Digital Library modeling in public reading parks, especially that in the Banten Province region.
