Volunteers Strengthen PTAR’s Digital Collection Ecosystem

Shah Alam, 9–10 February 2026The Book Cover Upload Project in the PERMATA System was successfully conducted over two days at the PTAR 1 IT Centre, Tun Abdul Razak Library (PTAR).

The programme was a collaborative initiative involving PTAR Volunteers and students from the Faculty of Information Science, UiTM Rembau Campus, Negeri Sembilan.

The project involved Semester 3 students from the Diploma in Information Management programme, namely:

  1. Muhammad Sazaril bin Shahrul Hidayat
  2. Muhammad Syukri bin Alfian
  3. Mohamad Asyraf bin Mohd Razali
  4. Anis Natasha binti Sharuddin
  5. Muhammad Irfan bin Zakariah
  6. Tariq Harziq bin Abdul Rahman

Throughout the programme, the students demonstrated a high level of commitment and professionalism in supporting the enhancement of PTAR’s digital library services.

Over the course of the two-day programme, the volunteers worked collaboratively to ensure the systematic and accurate uploading of book cover images into the PERMATA System. A total of 517 book covers were successfully uploaded, significantly enhancing the visual presentation of the library’s collections to be more user-friendly, attractive, and efficient for material discovery by the university community.

This initiative not only improved the quality and usability of PTAR’s digital database, but also provided valuable hands-on exposure for students in digital information management and real-world library system operations.

The Tun Abdul Razak Library extends its congratulations and sincere appreciation to all parties involved for their dedication and meaningful contributions. It is hoped that strategic collaborations such as this will continue in the future to further strengthen PTAR’s services for the UiTM community.
