Ideology Contestation in Management of University Library Development
Library collection development is mostly studied as professionalism based on a positivistic paradigm neglecting constructivist based paradigm. This constructivist base is reflected in various factors, such as ideology and commodification, which influence collection development. This research aims to investigate ideological contestation and commodification of institutions and audiences related to the collection development of Muhammadiyah University library. The ideological contestation was examined using Giddens’ structuration and Bourdieu’s habitus. The research data was collected from interviews with five informants from librarians and library directors. The data were supported by observation and documentation. The data obtained were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman technique based on three stages: reduction, display, and conclusion/verification. The results of the research found three formations in contestation, i.e. internal institutions, external institutions, and professionalism of librarians. The internal institution represented by the UMY Library encountered with outside institutions, such as American Corner, Iranian Corner, and publishers. Meanwhile, librarians show their professionalism in facing the ideological domination of those institutions through various strategies regarding the development of library collection

Background
Nowadays, internalization of local wisdom into library leadership concept is absolutely necessary and needs
to be discussed in both academic and practical ways. The local wisdom has become important to be preserved
in library leadership because it reflects original values of society. According to Sulistyo-Basuki (2002, p. 29),
a library in its history is created and maintained by the community as a means of preserving knowledge that
will become a main capital to build a new civilization.
A library in its function of preserving local wisdom is not only limited to the preservation of heritage in the
form of text, but also the exprerience values contained should become a philosophy of life inherent in the
library leadership concept. According to John Budd and Anne Goulding cited in Lisa Hussey (2012, p. 48), the
library has a role in the field of cultural production, such as facilitator, agent of preservation, builder of
repository culture, and actor implementing cultural value in the management of libraries. In order to create
a cultural values-based leadership, the libraries should be managed through local wisdom approach.
According to Ridwan in Wikantiyoso (2009, p. 6), local wisdom is a good behavior of people in relation to
their environment. It is derived from religious values, customs, advices of ancestors, and local culture, which
have scientifically awakened communities to adapt their surroundings. It is distinctively characterized as
dynamic, continuous, and binds to the community.
The implementation of local wisdom in the library leadership is meant as a practical form of noble values
among society. Setyowati (2013, p. 104) states that leadership is a process of influencing a group to achieve

KONTESTASI IDEOLOGI DALAM PENGEMBANGAN KOLEKSI DI PERPUSTAKAAN UNIVERSITAS MUHAMMADIYAH YOGYAKARTA = CONTESTED IDEOLOGIES IN COLLECTION DEVELOPMENT AT MUHAMMADIYAH UNIVERSITY LIBRARY, YOGYAKARTA – INDONESIA
Pengembangan koleksi perpustakaan tidak hanya dilakukan berdasarkan
pendekatan profesionalitas berbasis paradigma positivistik, tetapi juga berdasarkan
pemihakan yang berparadigma konstruktivistik. Tata kelola koleksi dipengaruhi
oleh berbagai faktor, di antaranya, ideologi dan komodifikasi atau ekonomi
politik. Penelitian ini berupaya melihat sejauh mana kontestasi ideologi sekaligus
kaitannya dengan komodifikasi kelembagan dan khalayak dalam pengembangan
koleksi perpustakaan UMY. Kontestasi ideologi tersebut dilihat dengan mengacu
pada konsep strukturasi Anthony Giddens dan teori habitus Bourdieu. Proses
kontestasi tersebut disimpulkan dalam tiga formasi, yang meliputi kelembagaan
internal, kelembagaan eksternal, dan profesionalitas pustakawan. Kelembagaan
internal diwakili perpustakaan UMY berhadapan dengan kelembagaan eksternal
yang diwakili lembaga-lembaga luar, seperti American Corner, Iranian Cormer,
penerbit, dan sebagainya. Profesionalitas pustakawan di sisi lain juga berhadapan
dengan kedua kelembagaan. Pustakawan menunjukkan sikap profesionalitasnya
berhadapan dengan dominasi ideologis kedua kelembagaan melalui berbagai
strategi dalam menjalankan pengembangan koleksi perpustakaan. Proses
kontestasi dan komodifikasi tersebut dilihat berdasarkan hasil wawancara
dengan lima informan dari pengelola perpustakaan yang didukung dengan
pengamatan langsung di lapangan. Hasil penelitian tersebut merekomendasikan
bahwa paradigma konstruktivistik penting digunakan untuk membaca fenomena
inheren perpustakaan yang tidak mengenal kuantifikasi. Suatu kebijakan tidak
akan berkesinambungan jika pengelola tidak mencoba menjadikan ideologi kelembagaan sebagai ukuran pengambilan kebijakan. Jadi, wacana ideologi
perlu menjadi sandingan di kalangan pustakawan dalam menjalankan kerja
profesionalnya.
