This study explores the learning strategies and literacy practices developed within a madrasah library community through a qualitative case study approach. The research was conducted at the Ibnu Sahnun Library of MAN Kota Palangka Raya and focused on one student member of the Sahabat Perpustakaan community who successfully passed achievement-based university admission pathways. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews then analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that participation in the madrasah library community contributed positively to the student’s academic preparation, literacy habits, communication skills, self-development, and academic motivation. Literacy activities such as writing projects, storytelling programs, literacy outreach, and content creation encouraged reflective learning, critical thinking, and collaborative engagement. The study also found that the library community functioned not only as a reading space but also as a student-centered educational environment that supported creativity, leadership, and meaningful literacy experiences. This study highlights the potential role of madrasah library communities in strengthening literacy culture and supporting holistic student development within Islamic educational contexts.
