The purpose of this study is to explore the role of social interaction in the library in students’ academic experience and psychological well-being. This research aims to understand how libraries support academic collaboration, reduce isolation, and increase social connectedness, and identify ways to design spaces and programs that meet students’ academic and psychological needs.

Articles included were in English and Indonesian, focused on libraries, and available in full text. Data were analysed narratively to identify psychological factors that influence social interactions in libraries, evaluate their impact on students’ psychological well-being, and identify best practices in library design and management. The results showed three main trends: the importance of social environments in libraries to support interaction and learning, the integration of information and communication technology (ICT) such as augmented reality (AR) to enhance social interaction, and the impact of social media and gadget use on social interaction. Libraries that support social interaction can improve students’ academic engagement and well-being. Future research includes longitudinal mixed-methods studies, diversification of data collection methods, and exploration of technology integration and external factors that influence student engagement.
