Abstract

The aims of this study are: 1) create a system for the lending and returning of scientific apparatus, 2) assess the effectiveness of the system, and 3) evaluate user satisfaction with the system. The research sample consists of 1) information system experts who assess system performance. The sample is selected using purposive sampling, 2) the system caters to a variety of users, such as professors, officials, researchers, graduate students, and undergraduate students. These users assess satisfaction with the system. The sample was selected by random chance. The research utilized a scientific equipment lending and return system, a system performance evaluation form, and a satisfaction evaluation form for system usage. The system development process utilizes the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and is implemented using the PHP programming language, with connectivity to a MySQL database. Statistics used in data analysis are mean and standard deviation.

            The research results indicate that the science equipment circulation service system that was developed is capable of efficiently managing and connecting information pertaining to science equipment circulation service. Users have the ability to access information regarding the inventory of materials and equipment that they wish to borrow. Users can borrow science equipment online and check the results of their borrowing and returning. The system efficiency evaluation by experts yielded the highest level of results (M = 4.69, SD = 0.29). Similarly, the evaluation of user satisfaction in using the system also yielded the highest level of results (M = 4.52, SD = 0.68).
