Abstract

This study aims to determine how the implementation of the Drone North Sumatra application in digital communication improves library data in the North Sumatra region. In the context of digitalization, this application offers an innovative solution for the collection and distribution of library information, which is crucial for improving data accessibility and accuracy. This research method uses a qualitative descriptive approach. Data collection in this study involved interviews, documentation, and literature review. Data validity was verified using theory and source triangulation. The results indicate that this application has a positive impact on improving data accuracy, increasing information accessibility, and increasing communication efficiency between managers and the public. The implementation of the Drone Sumut application has great potential to strengthen the role of libraries in supporting library data improvement and information dissemination in the North Sumatra region. This study recommends that policymakers conduct training for library managers in the region on the use of the Drone North Sumatra application to support library services and regularly update the accuracy of library collection data.
