Yuphin Meechaicharoen, Piyaporn Sematong — 2026-04-17

This research aimed to examine the factors influencing the need for the development of fundamental accounting knowledge among youth in Mueang Tak District, Tak Province. The study was conducted during September and October 2025. A survey research design was employed, and the sample consisted of 100 youth currently studying in educational institutions within Mueang Tak District. The sample was selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through a questionnaire, and the analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, including percentages, means, and standard deviations. The findings revealed that, overall, youth demonstrated a high level of demand for applying fundamental accounting knowledge in their daily lives. In contrast, the demand for accounting and taxation knowledge was at a moderate level, while the demand for knowledge related to accounting software packages and accounting standards was at a low level. Furthermore, the primary objective of accounting knowledge development among youth was to prepare for future careers. The most preferred method for knowledge development was continuing education in higher education institutions. The factors influencing the decision to pursue further education included institutional reputation, convenience of transportation, and educational expenses. Therefore, the results of this study can serve as guidelines for developing accounting education and instructional management that align with the needs of youth and the local context, thereby promoting sustainable development of educational potential and future career readiness.

Natchanan Sonthirak — 2026-04-29

This survey research aimed to examine the status and management methods of gifted information resources received from public and private sectors by the Academic Resources and Information Technology Centers of Rajabhat Universities in the Northern Region. The population consisted of practicing librarians or personnel responsible for managing gifted resources. The research instrument was a questionnaire, and data were analyzed using frequency and percentage. The research findings revealed that:

Regarding the status of gifted resource management: Most centers organized the workflow as a specific unit or group within the technical services department, with clearly defined and written policies. In terms of staffing, personnel were assigned as either professional librarians or designated practitioners. No specific budget was allocated for this section. Most gifted resources were integrated into the general book collection, with maintenance provided in electronic print formats. Furthermore, the majority of the centers had not yet implemented specific technologies, innovations, or automated systems for managing these resources.
Regarding management methods: The centers prioritized resources of high value that aligned with the universities' curricula. These resources underwent formal registration and classification systems. Weeding criteria followed the same standards as purchased materials. Services were provided via an open-shelf system, accessible to faculty, students, staff, and the general public; however, circulation privileges (borrowing and returning) were reserved for internal university personnel only. Public relations efforts included publishing annotated bibliographies on websites, creating featured resource corners, and organizing reading promotion activities.
