1. Introduction
A
digital library is a system that stores, organizes, and provides access to a
collection of information resources in digital form; unlike conventional
libraries that have physical collections such as books, magazines, and
journals, digital libraries present content in an electronic format that can be
accessed through computer devices or other devices connected to the internet (Iroaganachi, 2018). The library allows users to
search, download, and read different types of materials, such as e-books,
scientific articles, images, and videos, from anywhere and anytime (Maideen, 2017). With easy access and efficiency
in information management, digital libraries effectively support learning,
research, and the dissemination of science in the digital era (Vrana, 2017).
Effective
and efficient content management has become critical in this fast-paced digital
age, especially for organizations, businesses, and individuals looking to build
an online presence (Strauβ & Jonkman, 2017). One of the most important tools
to support this is the Content Management System (CMS) (Wan et al., 2016).
A
Content Management System (CMS) is software that allows users to create,
manage, and modify content on a website without technical programming knowledge
(Ang, 2019). The CMS provides a user-friendly
interface so users can easily organize text, images, videos, and various other
elements on their site (Kaluarachchi & Wickramasinghe, 2023). With a CMS, users can quickly
publish content, set page layouts, and keep websites up-to-date (Camden & Rinaldi, 2022). The platform also supports user
collaboration, allowing teams with different roles to work together on managing
content (Papadonikolaki et al., 2019). CMS is widely used for its ease
of use, efficiency, and flexibility (Abdullah et al., 2016). It is an ideal solution for various
website management needs, from personal blogs to large business portals (Cesaroni & Consoli, 2015).
A
simple web-based digital library CMS is a platform that utilizes a Content
Management System (CMS) to manage and provide access to a collection of books,
journals, articles, and other digital materials through the internet. These
libraries can be easily created and managed using a CMS without requiring
in-depth technical skills. Users can search, download, and read digital content
from various internet-connected devices. The platform offers a user-friendly
interface and allows library managers to update collections efficiently, making
it easier to disseminate information and support learning and research needs.
Literature
Review
Digital
Library
Digital libraries are complex
information systems designed to support various user needs (Chen, 2022). Advancements have significantly influenced the
development of digital libraries in information and communication technologies (H. G. Sastry et
al., 2014). These libraries function similarly to traditional
libraries but operate based on digital mechanisms using personal computers and
digital technologies (Azir et al., 2022). One of the key advantages of digital libraries is
their ability to store vast amounts of digital information and make it
accessible to users worldwide through communication networks (Jamaludin &
Mahmud, 2011).
The development and management of
digital libraries require specific competencies to handle electronic
infrastructures and services effectively (Khan & Bhatti,
2017). User interface design in digital libraries is
crucial in ensuring convenient access to high-quality information (H. Sastry et al.,
2011). Evaluation of digital libraries is essential to
guarantee their proper evolution and user acceptance (Fuhr et al., 2007). These libraries store a wide range of document
types and formats, making them versatile repositories of information (Monch &
Drobnik, 1998).
Research on digital libraries
encompasses various aspects such as architecture, systems, tools, content,
metadata, interoperability, standards, and user experience (Shiri, 2003). The information architecture of digital libraries
is crucial in meeting the needs of both learners and educators in specific
domains like science, mathematics, engineering, and technology education (Dong & Agogino,
2001). The demand for digital libraries has led to the
emergence of roles like systems librarians or digital librarians to manage
these complex information systems effectively (Singh &
Nyaichyai, 2023).
In conclusion, digital libraries
have become indispensable in the digital age, offering vast resources and
information accessible to users globally. Their development, management, and
usability are critical areas of research and practice to ensure they continue
to evolve effectively and meet the needs of their users.
Digital library management systems
play a crucial role in ensuring the coordination of different parts of the
library Rahmani (2022). These systems serve as online platforms, providing
access to a variety of digital information resources (Khan & Shahzad,
2024). The resources available in digital libraries
encompass a wide range of materials such as e-books, digitized archives,
academic journals, and research data ("Management and preservation of
digital library resources", 2023). Digital librarians are essential in
managing digital information systems, adding value to digital libraries by
organizing information effectively and ensuring user-friendliness
(Sreenivasulu, 2000). Additionally, disaster management is crucial for digital
libraries to maintain information integrity and continuity (Ifijeh et al.,
2016).
In essence, the management of
digital library systems involves addressing challenges, ensuring access to
diverse digital resources, preserving information, leveraging the expertise of
digital librarians, and implementing disaster management strategies to
safeguard digital assets.
CMS
Content management systems are
crucial for the effective organization and dissemination of digital library
resources Rahmani (2022). Librarians' digital competencies are essential
for utilizing emerging educational technologies and managing digital libraries
efficiently (Bolasco, 2023). While revising digital library content in response
to user requests can enrich libraries with user-contributed content, it also
poses challenges related to trust, authenticity, methodology, and
sustainability (Dawson, 2006). The British Library's digital library program
defines digital libraries as systems that acquire, store, conserve, and provide
access to information using digital technologies (Meyyappan et al., 2000).
Multimedia Content Management Systems like MILOS can be instrumental in
building digital library applications and enhancing user experiences (Amato et
al., 2006).
Digital libraries serve as
essential infrastructure for document management, necessitating robust content
and knowledge management systems to ensure efficient search and retrieval of
information (Kannan & Andr�s, 2010). The development of digital libraries
requires the implementation of standards and protocols to ensure effective
organization and management of content (Oguche, 2023). Assessing and adapting
content management systems like Drupal for digital library applications can
enhance interactivity and user experience (Moore, 2008). Policy decision trees
can offer flexible solutions for managing digital collections in academic and
university libraries, ensuring effective access and reproduction policies
(Koulouris & Kapidakis, n.d.; Koulouris & Kapidakis, 2005).
Additionally, a cooperative service architecture based on grid technology can
enhance the federation of digital libraries, improving content organization and
service delivery (Huang & Wei, 2010).
In conclusion, content management
systems are integral to the successful operation of digital libraries,
requiring librarians with digital competencies to navigate emerging
technologies and user demands effectively. Implementing robust systems,
adhering to standards, and developing policies are essential for managing
digital content efficiently and ensuring seamless access for users.
Digital library management
involves coordinating different digital library components to help achieve its
objectives Rahmani (2022). One crucial aspect of digital library development
is the management of digital library content, which has not received adequate
attention (Yeh et al., 2000). A Digital Content Management System is a software
system designed to offer preservation, organization, and dissemination services
for digital collections (Matusiak et al.,
2017). The Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard
(METS) provides a standardized way to capture descriptive, administrative,
structural, and behavioral metadata necessary for managing and providing access
to intricate digital content (Formenton &
Gracioso, 2023).

Based on the provided references,
the software development life cycle (SDLC) plays a crucial role in the
development and management of software projects. Various methodologies such as
the Waterfall, Prototype, Spiral, Agile, and Incremental or Rapid Application
Development models are commonly employed in the SDLC process Agarwal et al.
(2023). The SDLC process involves phases like problem definition, requirement
analysis, system design, coding, debugging and testing, acceptance and
operation, maintenance, and upgrade to disposal (Yuge, 2023). Additionally, the
SDLC model is essential for ensuring software reliability in different phases
of development (Kumar et al., 2018).
The SDLC approach is vital for
incorporating quality assurance practices throughout the software development
life cycle, ensuring software quality analyst involvement and adherence to
software quality assurance practices at different stages of development
("A Methodology for Incorporating Quality Assurance Practices during
Software Development Life Cycle", 2021). Furthermore, security
considerations should be integrated into every phase of the SDLC, from
requirements gathering to design, implementation, testing, and deployment, to
enhance software security (Futcher & Solms, 2007).
In conclusion, the SDLC is a
structured sequence of software engineering phases that contributes to software
product development, ensuring reliability, quality, and security throughout the
software development life cycle.

Materials and
Methods
The research method for developing
this CMS-based digital library applies the Waterfall SDLC model, consisting of
several phases. The first phase is requirement analysis, where features such as
user management, content uploading, and e-book accessibility are identified
through discussions with stakeholders. Next is the system design phase, where
the technical architecture, user interface, and diagrams like Use Case are
created to visualize the key functionalities. In the implementation phase, the
system is developed using web technologies according to the designed plan,
focusing on features like login pages, dashboards, and content upload forms.
This is followed by integration and testing to ensure all components function
as expected, including interface usability and system responsiveness. The
system is then deployed on a server to be accessible to users, with the final
phase being maintenance, involving monitoring, bug fixes, and further
enhancements based on user feedback.

This digital library is made
simple because it is to make it easier for users. The simplicity of this system
is also intended to facilitate infrastructure so that it does not burden
various aspects. It is hoped that the existence of a lightweight digital
library can build a culture of reading and literacy. This system is still under
development, and many things need to be developed; of course, we who are
researching also still take into account the aspect of convenience and a light
system that is an effort to support and not burdensome in the infrastructure
aspect.
