The Impact of Digitization of Libraries on the Educational Process in the Context of Distance Learning

Keywords: Digital libraries, information sources, digital literacy, learning processes, online information systems, educational environment

Abstract

The aim of this work is to determine the effectiveness of the impact of digitization of libraries on the educational process in the context of distance learning. The aim was achieved through the use of the Likert scale, the coefficients of the sample value, effectiveness, and correlation. In most cases, students visit websites and blogs of the library to find materials for writing research papers (0.92), which contributes to the deepening of knowledge. A total of 81% of students were found to have a positive attitude towards using the benefits of digitization of educational libraries to support learning. During training, students obtained a high level of knowledge for understanding theoretical material (0.29) and writing research papers (0.28). The prospects of the study are related to the comparison of the effectiveness of the distance and traditional learning with the involvement of the possibilities of the digitization process of educational libraries.
