A qualitative research methodology, based on legal documents and foundational information relevant to library management in both countries, is employed. The study finds that Japan possesses specific laws that affirm the status of libraries, covering detailed library management, including a clear definition of librarians and their qualifications, providing clarity in library management and development. Contrarily, Thailand lacks explicit legislative laws, and despite efforts to promote the National Library Bill, it does not encompass digital media and various services comprehensively. In terms of foundational library data, Japan has systematic and referable statistical data, such as library numbers, personnel data, and budget allocations for book purchasing. In contrast, Thailand lacks continuous and comprehensive statistical and foundational data. Thus, revising and developing laws and library management strategies in Thailand is a crucial approach for sustainable library development.</p> Kaimuk Laosunthara, Ampan Laosunthara Copyright (c) 2024 TLA Research Journal http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/tla_research/article/view/269806 Tue, 03 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700 High School Executives’ Behavior and Service Quality of High School Library in Phetchaburi and Prachuap Khiri Khan Provinces https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/tla_research/article/view/270174 <p>The research aims to; 1) survey the behavior of high school executives, 2) survey the service quality of high school library; 3) examine the relationship between the behavior of high school executives and the service quality of high school library, and 4) create a model of high school executive behavior effects on the service quality of high school library in Phetchaburi and Prachuap Khiri Khan provinces.

Kennedy Library, Office of Academic Resources, Prince of Songkla University https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/tla_research/article/view/275725 <p>This research aims to 1) Develop a hybrid payment system for library fees at John F. Kennedy Library, Academic Resources Office, Prince of Songkla University 2) Evaluate the system’s efficiency and 3) Assess user satisfaction with the system. The sample groups for the research included: 1) Five experts in information system development and microcontroller assessment; 2) Eleven library staff members, selected through purposive sampling; and 3) Four hundred external users, selected through accidental sampling, to evaluate user satisfaction with the system.</p> <p> The research results indicated that users could pay fees both via coin-operated machines and bank application transfers. The system can issue coupon slips for library access, providing convenience and speed in fee payment and enhancing service efficiency. Additionally, the system supports library staff operations by enabling the verification of payments made via coin-operated machines and bank applications, and it can generate payment reports for the finance department and management promptly and accurately. The overall system efficiency was rated at the highest level ( <img id="output" src="https://latex.codecogs.com/svg.image?\overline{x}" alt="equation" />=4.79, S.D.=0.31). The overall satisfaction with the system among library staff was also at the highest level ( <img id="output" src="https://latex.codecogs.com/svg.image?\overline{x}" alt="equation" />=4.80, S.D.=0.31), and among users, it was rated at the highest level ( <img id="output" src="https://latex.codecogs.com/svg.image?\overline{x}" alt="equation" />=4.65, SD=0.56)</p> Shareef Lamak Copyright (c) 2024 TLA Research Journal http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/tla_research/article/view/275725 Tue, 03 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0700 Knowledge Management with SECI Model to Develop Sustainable Learning Process under the Principles of Sufficiency Economy of Non-Formal and Informal Education Students, Rusamilae Sub-District, Pattani https://so06.tci-thaijo.org/index.php/tla_research/article/view/273128 <p>The research aimed to study and understand the practices of the principles of sufficiency economy philosophy through the application of the knowledge management innovation cycle using the SECI Model in the instruction.
