The rapid growth of information and communication technologies has transformed the way libraries connect with their users. Internet resources have emerged as powerful tools for marketing library services, enabling wider outreach, improved accessibility, and enhanced user engagement. This study, titled “Marketing Library Services through Internet Resources: An Analysis of Feedback and Perceptions,” explores the effectiveness of online platforms in promoting library services and examines user feedback and perceptions regarding their utilization. Data was collected through surveys and feedback forms from library users, focusing on awareness, satisfaction, and ease of access to services marketed online. The findings reveal that internet-based marketing strategies such as library websites, social media platforms, online catalogs, and digital newsletters significantly influence user engagement and awareness. However, the study also highlights challenges such as digital literacy gaps, inadequate promotion, and limited personalization of services. Overall, the research emphasizes the importance of adopting innovative online marketing approaches and integrating user feedback to enhance the visibility, accessibility, and impact of library services in the digital era.
