The results indicate that the ratings from more than half of the readers for the system, as shown in the various indicators, achieve more than 60%. From the interview results, the results show that some participants also reveal there is still room for improvement in some areas.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title

quality as the most important, and some of the people value some of the items more, including library policy, readers' interests and more resources, especially the number of e-books
