Abstract

Academic libraries have an essential role in the academic community. As a reference center, libraries provide access to online reference sources or book collections. One of the facilities provided is the library automation which facilitate users to access library resources. With an online catalog that is easy to operate, it will be easier for users to get information. However, libraries generally only provide interface search facilities which make it difficult for users to find information. This study aims to produce an index on the online library catalog using the KWIC (KeyWord in Context) method. The data was collected from the Open Archive Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH) on the Library server. In the data harvesting process, around 50,000 data were found to be processed. The finding in this study indicates that the library’s online catalog metadata index makes it easier for users to retrieve information.
