Congratulations! UIN Jakarta Adds Professor, Proving the Library's Role in Strengthening the Research Ecosystem

Jakarta, News Online  – Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University (UIN) Jakarta has again achieved academic success with the addition of six professors from various Islamic sciences. The Minister of Religious Affairs Decree (KMA) was presented to the new professors on Monday (July 13, 2026) at the Gramd Mercure Harmoni Hotel in Central Jakarta. This milestone marks a significant milestone in strengthening UIN Jakarta's position as a leading center for Islamic science, research, and higher education in Indonesia.

For the UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta Library, this achievement also reflects the importance of building a robust research ecosystem. Behind  the birth of a professor lies a long process that is continuously supported by access to scientific literature, academic culture, reputable publications, and sustainable information services —all of which are part of the implementation of the role of a university library.

The UIN Jakarta Library continues to transform into a strategic partner for the academic community by providing print and digital collections, access to international scientific databases, institutional repository, referrence search services, information literacy, assistence in the use of citation management appliications, and research consultations. These various services are designed to support lecturers and other academics in producing quality scientific work and meeting the demands of academic career development.

"The library is not only a repository of knowledge, but also a space for the growth of expertise. The availability of scientific information services, relevant collections, access to reputable journals, and research assistance are part of our commitment to supporting lecturers, students, researchers, and other academics in producing the best work," said Agus Rifai in his statement on Tuesday (July 14).

Agus further stated that modern libraries are no longer positioned as mere administrative support units, but rather as academic research partners that contribute to improving research quality, producing scientific publications, and strengthening the academic reputation of universities. "The addition of six professors to UIN Jakarta is a source of shared pride and motivation for the library to continue strengthening the research ecosystem and academic literacy within the university," Agus Rifai stated.
