This study aims to explore the experiences, values of happiness, and impacts of participation in the Call for Paper (CFP) and Call for Best Practice (CFBP) events organized by the Indonesian Higher Education Library Forum (FPPTI) during the 2nd International Conference of Indonesian Higher Education Libraries (KPPTI). A qualitative research approach with a phenomenological method was employed. Data were collected through interviews using open-ended questionnaires, observations, documentation, and literature reviews. The open-ended questionnaire was distributed to participants via WhatsApp groups specifically created for CFP and CFBP attendees. Data were analyzed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), which involved stages such as preparing the questionnaire, taking initial notes, identifying emergent themes, formulating superordinate themes, establishing patterns across participants, and reporting findings. The study identified five dimensions of happiness based on the PERMA framework: (a) Positive Emotions, reflected in feelings of enthusiasm, joy, pride, happiness, optimism, and satisfaction; (b) Engagement, demonstrated by the ability to submit work and present it publicly; (c) Relationships, evidenced through research collaborations; (d) Meaning and Purpose, illustrated by knowledge and experience sharing; and (e) Accomplishment and Achievement, reflected in increased publications supporting career advancements. Key benefits of participating in CFP and CFBP include enhanced writing and presentation skills, improved personal and institutional branding, sharing ideas and experiences, boosted confidence, self-actualization, expanded networking opportunities, and personal growth through breaking routines. These findings suggest that the happiness derived from such activities can enhance librarians' productivity in scientific writing and encourage continued participation in similar events with enthusiasm and positivity.
ABSTRAK
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi pengalaman, nilai kebahagiaan, dan dampak keikutsertaan dalam acara call for paper (CFP) maupun call for best practice (CFBP) yang diselenggarakan oleh Forum Perpustakaan Perguruan Tinggi Indonesia (FPPTI) dalam Konferensi Internasional Perpustakaan Perguruan Tinggi Indonesia (KPPTI) ke-2. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode fenomenologi. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara menggunakan kuesioner terbuka, observasi, dokumentasi dan studi literatur. Kuesioner terbuka disebarkan kepada peserta melalui grup WhatsApp peserta CFP dan CFPB KPPTI 2. Data dianalisis menggunakan Interpretative Phenomenological Analisys (IPA), yang melibatkan tahap seperti mempersiapkan kuesioner terbuka, pencatatan temuan awal, mengidentifikasikan tema yang muncul, merumuskan tema utama, menentukan pola di antara peserta dan melaporkan hasil. Studi ini mengidentifikasi lima dimensi kebahagiaan berdasarkan kerangka PERMA: (a) Positive emotions (emosi positif), tercermin dalam perasaan antusiasme, kebahagiaan, kebanggaan, kegembiraan, optimisme, dan kepuasan; (b) Engagement (keterlibatan), yang ditunjukkan melalui kemampuan untuk mengirimkan karya dan mempresentasikannya secara publik; (c) Relationship (hubungan), dibuktikan melalui kolaborasi penelitian; (d) Meaning and Purpose (makna dan tujuan), digambarkan melalui berbagi pengetahuan dan pengalaman; dan (e) Accomplishment and Achievements (pencapaian dan prestasi), tercermin dalam meningkatnya publikasi yang mendukung kemajuan karier. Manfaat utama dari partisipasi dalam CFP dan CFBP meliputi peningkatan keterampilan menulis dan presentasi, branding pribadi dan institusi yang lebih baik, berbagi ide dan pengalaman, peningkatan kepercayaan diri, aktualisasi diri, perluasan jaringan, dan pertumbuhan pribadi melalui pemutusan rutinitas. Temuan ini menyarankan bahwa kebahagiaan yang diperoleh dari kegiatan tersebut dapat meningkatkan produktivitas pustakawan dalam penulisan ilmiah dan mendorong partisipasi berkelanjutan dalam acara serupa dengan antusiasme dan positif.
