Library Spatial Planning in Increasing Reading Interest of Madrasah Aliyah Students

Abstrak

Background of the study: The school's success in increasing students' interest in reading is one of the critical factors that the school community needs to pay attention to. Libraries, as institutions that manage student learning resources, require design changes to create an atmosphere conducive to learning and increase students' interest in reading.
Purpose: This research aims to analyze the influence of school library layout on students' reading interests at MAN 16 Jakarta.
Method: This research approach uses quantitative survey methods. The analysis technique uses simple linear regression and coefficient of determination to validate measurements related to the influence of school library layout on students' reading interest at MAN 16 Jakarta—analysis data. The sample used in this research was a simple random sampling technique with sampling from the population carried out randomly using the Slovin formula. The population data was 216 students in class. The hypotheses in the research are:
H0: There is no significant influence between the layout of the school library and students' reading interest at MAN 16 Jakarta.
H1: There is a significant influence between the layout of the school library and students' reading interest at MAN 16 Jakarta.
Findings: Results of statistical testing of the t-test, the Tcount value is 6.158, and the Table is 0.2378, with a significance of 0.000. With the test criteria, if Tcount > Ttable and significance < α (0.05), H0 is rejected, and H1 is accepted. So, there is a slight influence between the layout of the school library and students' reading interests. In calculating the coefficient of determination, it is known that the influence of the school library layout is 27.9%. Meanwhile, the results of simple linear regression regarding Library Spatial Planning (X) positively affect Students' Reading Interest (Y). So the regression equation is Y = 9.142 + 1.815
Conclusion: The influence of the school library layout on students' reading interest at MAN 16 Jakarta shows positive results.
