Functional utilities of library learning space: A study with reference to the selected universities of Assam

The evolution of university libraries into dynamic learning spaces plays an important role in fostering holistic education. The study is a humble attempt to examine the functional utilities of library learning spaces in the selected university libraries in Assam. The study focuses on the capacity of the libraries to accommodate diverse academic activities and integration of technology resources. Based on a survey method, the responses were analyzed using a five-point Likert scale. The chi-squared tests have been performed on JASP Software to evaluate the statistical significance. The findings of the study reveal that most libraries provide moderately functional spaces. There are disparities in their ability to fully meet user needs while accommodating technology resources. 50 % of the libraries sufficiently accommodate technological resources, although challenges exist in optimizing spaces for collaborative and individual learning.
