Di lingkungan Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia (LIPI) terdapat perpustakaan yang berada pada masing – masing satuan kerja. Dalam beberapa tahun ini keberadaan perpustakaan di lingkungan satuan kerja LIPI mulai dipertanyakan dan dipermasalahkan karena pemustaka yang
datang secara langsung sudah mulai berkurang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui persepsi kepala satuan kerja serta para peneliti di lingkungan LIPI Kawasan Jakarta tentang keberadaan dan keberlanjutan perpustakaan dan kepustakawanan di lingkungan LIPI Jakarta. Digunakan metode kualitatif dilengkapi dengan wawancara mendalam. Penelitian dilakukan terhadap Kepala Satuan Kerja serta para peneliti di lingkungan LIPI Jakarta, meliputi PDDI, Pusat Penelitan Politik, Pusat Peneltian Ekonomi, Pusat Penelitian Kemasyarakatan dan Kebudayaan, Pusat Penelitian Kependudukan, LIPI Press, Pusat Penelitian Oseanografi, Pusat Kebijakan dan Manajemen Iptek dan Inovasi dengan jumlah responden sebanyak 30 orang. Hasil dan kesimpulan menunjukkan bahwa Perpustakaan tetap diperlukan, karena informasi yang ada di perpustakaan merupakan harta kekayaan intelektual yang harus dipelihara dan dilestarikan agar bisa diwariskan untuk generasi mendatang serta dikembangkan agar didapat kekayaan intelektual yang baru. Namun disarankan agar perpustakaan dilengkapi dengan, sarana dan prasarana yang lengkap dan nyaman, serta diharapkan pustakawan meningkatkan kompetensi agar dapat memberikan layanan dengan lebih baik.
