Abstract:
Historically, the scientific library has always been an important component of the structure of higher educational institution in Russia. Development of new technologies, creation of electronic information environment and availability of universities websites imposes on libraries certain responsibilities, associated not only with the provision of electronic resources and services to users, but also with the reflection on websites of various information about the libraries themselves, in particular, regarding their history. This information not only affects the formation of libraryʼs image, but

Abstract:
This study tests the hypothesis that a positive relationship exists between academic library funding (dependent variable) and selected institutional variables taken as indicators of the demand for library services at the university (enrollment, number of doctoral programs, doctoral degrees awarded, number of faculty, select other institutional characteristics). The research employs 11 years of longitudinal data from 113 members of the Association of Research Libraries to create a multiple regression model. Empirical results indicate that operational indicators of the demand for library service

Abstract:
PurposeMechanical systems in library environments are typically designed to run continuously in order to maintain the desired environmental conditions for preservation purposes, often resulting in a high cost in dollars and energy consumption. Altering these conditions through changed HVAC operating schedules is a risk many librarians and institutions are hesitant to take. This study aims to introduce the methodology and early findings of current research into the question of whether energy usage can be significantly reduced in libraries by carefully monitored and risk‐managed shutdowns of air

Abstract:
Daylighting, the strategic use of natural light in building design, is essential for creating sustainable and energyefficient spaces. Its implementation must balance natural illumination, especially in academic buildings which requires good lighting system. In university libraries, where students and researchers spend a lot of time to gain knowledge, effective daylighting is paramount as it is importance for good sight and readability of books. Several research has been done on daylighting; however, little research has been carried out on the effect of daylighting in tropical savanna climates
