Library Environment Affecting the Study Habits and Academic Performance of Students of SJCB

Journal Title: American Journal of Environmental Economics - Year 2023, Vol 2, Issue 3

Abstract

This study assessed the effect of the library environment on the study habits and academic performance of students at Saint Joseph’s College of Baggao. A descriptive research design was employed, utilizing a self-made questionnaire to collect data from 240 first-year students enrolled in various programs. The collected data were analyzed using statistical tests, and the findings were drawn upon to draw meaningful conclusions and provide recommendations for future research and institutional practices. The study revealed that the library environment significantly influences students’ study habits and academic performance. The assessment of the library environment indicated that factors such as cleanliness, availability of resources, comfortable lighting, and responsive staff had a considerable impact on students’ academic endeavors. Moreover, significant differences were observed among different academic programs, emphasizing the need for tailored interventions to cater to program-specific requirements and preferences. However, the study also identified some limitations, such as the small sample size and the single-institution focus, which may limit the generalizability of the findings. Recommendations for future research include expanding the sample size, incorporating longitudinal studies, employing mixed methods approaches, and exploring additional variables that may contribute to the relationship between the library environment and student outcomes. Based on the conclusions and recommendations, it is suggested that educational institutions prioritize the maintenance, improvement, and customization of library resources and services to meet the diverse needs of students. Institutions should use the study findings to inform their policies and practices regarding the library environment, creating a conducive and supportive space that enhances students’ study habits and academic performance. This study contributes valuable insights into the significance of the library environment in facilitating students’ academic success. By addressing the limitations and implementing the recommendations, future research can further enhance our understanding of the complex dynamics between the library environment, study habits, and academic performance, leading to improved strategies and practices in educational institutions.
