Library is one of the state institution which is built to provide educational resources, cultural <br /> <br /> preservation in the form of archives and books, additional information, and also recreation for its <br /> <br /> users. The Provincial Library should not only work as the resources and references center for all of <br /> <br /> the library around the province but also has to survive in the digital era and provide facilities using <br /> <br /> the newest technology which is popular and commonly used by the citizen nowadays. <br /> <br /> The Central Java Provincial Library has been established and supervising the growth of each <br /> <br /> library which is built in Central Java since 1951. Unfortunately, even if the library has become one of <br /> <br /> the most valuable resources center in Central Java, the facilities itself needs to be renewed and <br /> <br /> revitalized. After observing the condition of the library, the function of the library as a center of <br /> <br /> intercommunity interactions in Central Java has not been well contained inside the building. The <br /> <br /> users also feel reluctant to visit because the library colletion is considered incomplete, facilities are <br /> <br /> not sufficient, and the building itself is considered old-fashioned. Hence, the idea that wanted to be <br /> <br /> implemented in this project is focusing on the issues of interaction, preservation, and modernity with <br /> <br /> the concept of a ‘Forest Library’ to create a community and cultural archived center based on <br /> <br /> information and communication technology.
