Abstract

Kajian Pemakai jika dilihat secara etimologi berasal dari dua kata yaitu Kajian dan Pemakai. Kata kajian dari dasar kata kaji yang berarti selidik atau nilai. Kata Pemakai berarti yang memakai atau yang menggunakan. Powell (1994: 21- 34), menggunakan  dua  istilah  untuk mengkaji  pemakai,  yaitu  House  survey  of  users   bagi  pemakai  yang  menjadi  anggota   suatu  perpustakaan,  dan  Community analysis untuk  pemakai  baik  yang   menjadi   anggota  maupun  bukan  anggota  perpustakaan.

Review

This article, titled "Mengkaji Kebutuhan Pemakai di Perpustakaan Universitas Stikubank (UNISBANK) Semarang," addresses a highly relevant and practical topic within library and information science: assessing user needs in an academic library setting. Understanding user requirements is fundamental for effective library service provision, resource allocation, and strategic planning. The focus on a specific institution like UNISBANK Semarang suggests a case study approach, which can offer valuable localized insights into user behavior and expectations within that particular university environment. However, the provided abstract presents a significant deficiency. Rather than summarizing the research conducted, its methodology, findings, and conclusions, the abstract focuses exclusively on an etymological definition of "Kajian Pemakai" (User Study) and a brief historical overview of terms used by Powell (1994) to categorize user research. While a foundational understanding of terms can be useful in an introduction, an abstract's primary function is to provide a concise overview of the *specific study* being presented. It entirely omits critical information such as the research objectives, the methods employed to study user needs at UNISBANK, the key results obtained, or any implications derived from those results. Consequently, based solely on this abstract, it is impossible to evaluate the scientific merit, originality, or contribution of the research. To be considered for publication, the abstract must be thoroughly revised. It should succinctly articulate the study's purpose at UNISBANK Semarang, describe the data collection and analysis methods used, present the main findings regarding user needs, and outline the conclusions or recommendations stemming from these findings. Without such a substantive abstract, potential readers (and reviewers) cannot ascertain the scope, rigor, or impact of the work.
