National Library of Indonesia, The National Library of Indonesia is the legal deposit library of Indonesia. It is located at Gambir, on the south side of Merdeka Square, Jakarta. It serves primarily as a humanities library alongside several others holding national responsibilities for science and agriculture. The new library building, which took almost three years to build, is 126.3 meters tall and has 24 floors. It was planned in line with “green building” concepts. Membership cards and books are equipped with Radio-frequency identification devices for security and to monitor the inventory. B. Jakarta Public Library- Jaklitera also known as Cikini Library, is one of the libraries located in Central Jakarta and has become an icon in the world of literacy in the capital city. Cikini Library was established in 1962 to provide access to quality reading materials for the people of Jakarta. Over time, the library underwent transformation and improved facilities to meet the needs of modern visitors.

The International Library Conference is a global conference event for library professionals organized by BINUS SCHOOL Learning Resources Centres in collaboration with International Association of School Librarianship (IASL). In this conference, participants from various countries share current ideas and innovations, discuss trends and challenges in library management. Involving presentation sessions and panel discussions by experts, the conference also facilitates the formation of professional networks and cross-country cooperation. Its goal is to advance libraries globally through collaboration and the exchange of knowledge. Purpose and significance of this conference: To promote knowledge exchange among librarians, researchers, and professionals in the field. To foster international collaboration among library professionals, promoting a global perspective in library services by bringing together individuals from diverse countries and cultures. To highlight the role of libraries in promoting literacy and exploring strategies for engaging communities and advocating for the importance of libraries in education. The theme this year is “Transforming Libraries: Shifting the Paradigm Towards Sustainability, Best Practices, SDGs, and AI Integration.“

Students’ skills in sports need continuous training, and one way to do that is by having competitions. These competitions help them see how good they are and teach them to be strong and fair when they play against different teams. To help students get better at sports, BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi organized the Bee-SB CUP 2024 competition again from February 22-24. Students from other schools, including National Plus and Cambridge schools in Bekasi, were invited to join in. They could choose to compete in Basketball, Futsal, or Modern Dance. For two days, students struggled against each other in the court. But it wasn’t just about winning, they also learned a lot about the rules of the games and how to plan their strategies. Fazar Rizaldi, a teacher at BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi, said this year’s Bee-SB CUP is the second time they’ve held it. BINUS SCHOOL wants to make friends with schools in Bekasi and hope this becomes a regular event. “We hope this becomes a gathering event for National Plus and Cambridge schools in Bekasi and its surroundings, and we also hope it becomes a regular event,” said Fazar. The theme for this competition is “Hive of Champions.” It’s a chance for BINUS to remind everyone about the SPIRIT (Striving for Excellence, Perseverance, Integrity, Respect, Innovation, dan Teamwork) values. And it’s also an opportunity for students to #DiscoverNewHorizons at BINUS SCHOOL.
