Abstract

Library spaces play a crucial role in fostering user engagement, particularly for students in academic settings by creating welcoming environment that blend inspiring spaces with engaging resources and programming, academic libraries can make significant contributions to overall student engagement. This study employed descriptive regression research design to determine the influence of library space design on student engagement. A total number of 100 students from selected schools in Regions XI and XII were the respondents of the study using convenience sampling technique. Mean and simple linear regression analysis were employed to analyze the data. The findings showed that student’s level of perception towards library space design was very high while level of user engagement was found to be high. Among the indicators of library space design, aesthetics and atmosphere got the highest mean ratings while on the aspect of user engagement, library visits yielded the highest mean rating. Moreover, the results showed that student’s perception on the library space design influence user engagement. Base on the findings it is recommended that the school administrators should prioritize allocating adequate resources for continuous library space renovation, conduct comprehensive assessments to library personnel and users, and streamlining access to library resources to meet expectations of students who are comfortable with technology.
