Library (UWP) officially collaborates with the National Library of the Republic
of Indonesia (Perpusnas RI). This collaboration aims to increase public access
to information, enrich library collections, and increase literacy in the campus
environment. This collaboration covers various fields, including: The UWP
Library will get access to the digital collections of the National Library of
Indonesia, so that students and lecturers can access a wider variety of
information sources; Higher education institutions will work together to
organize various literacy programs, such as digital literacy training, writing
competitions and joint reading activities; and the UWP Library will receive support
from the National Library of Indonesia in improving the quality of services,
both in terms of human resources and infrastructure.
This collaborative activity is a follow-up to the East Java Indonesian
Higher Education Library Forum (FPPTI) work program, which includes
facilitating an MoU on Cooperation between the Indonesian National Library
(PERPUSNAS) and East Java FPPTI Member Universities as well as Library Camp,
East Java FPPTI will hold a National Seminar and Library Camp 4.0 with the
theme "Strengthening Librarian Competencies through Collaboration and
Innovation in the VUCA Era". The UWP Library is an active member of FPPTI

learning at UWP as a superior learning center so that with the support of the
National Library of Indonesia, UWP is optimistic that it can increase interest
in reading and literacy among the academic community.
