THE ROLE OF ACADEMIC LIBRARIES IN SUPPORTING MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS AND STRESS MANAGEMENT

Abstract

The necessity for supportive environments in academic institutions is highlighted by the sharp rise in mental health issues among college students. This study investigates how the library at the ATSS College of Business Studies and Computer Applications (CBSCA) supports stress reduction and mental health awareness. Surveys, interviews, and observations were used to gather data for a qualitative case study. Results show that the library offers a peaceful, welcoming space that helps students focus and manage stress. Nonetheless, there are still a few organized wellness initiatives, mental health resource collections, and partnerships with counseling services. The report suggests creating wellness areas, planning awareness campaigns, implementing bibliotherapy, and providing mental health support training to library employees. Overall, the research highlights that academic libraries can play a vital role in fostering student well-being and emotional resilience alongside their educational mission.
