ABSTRACT
This study investigates and compares various university ranking systems, particularly considering the unique situation of Bangladesh. With the rise of globalization and emphasis on research in the knowledge-based economy, university rankings have gained significant attention. However, different organizations use diverse criteria and methodologies, leading to discrepancies in ranking positions. This research employed a two-phase approach. The first phase involved a systematic literature review focusing on globally used indicators and methodologies for university rankings. This phase revealed that research-related indicators hold the highest weightage (67.93%) in most ranking systems. Subsequently, the second phase utilized active ranking algorithms to explore the findings from the first phase. The study concludes that research output significantly influences a university's ranking and competitiveness globally. Considering Bangladesh's lower publication volume compared to other nations, adopting a ranking system like QS or THEWUR could be beneficial. This system aligns with the global focus on research output and could incentivize research efforts within Bangladeshi universities.

ABSTRACT
This research article investigates the relationship between people marketing strategies and user satisfaction within university libraries in central Uganda. Given the increasing competition among academic libraries for user engagement and service delivery, understanding how people-oriented marketing approaches can enhance user satisfaction becomes crucial. The objectives of this study are: to analyze the people marketing strategies employed by selected university libraries, assess user satisfaction levels, explore the relationship between marketing strategies and user satisfaction, and determine the influence of these strategies on the overall satisfaction of library users. A mixed-methods approach was used, involving quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews. Findings indicated a positive (0.185-0.509) and significant (P≤0.01) correlation between effective people marketing strategies and higher user satisfaction levels. Staff availability (12.463, P≤0.009), capacity to guide users (3.583, P≤0.000) communication skills (0.605, P≤0.001), effective rapport with users (37.351, P≤0.058), and support in utilization of new technologies (3.283, P≤0.007), among others, were the major determinants of user library satisfaction. The study therefore emphasized the need for library administrations to adopt comprehensive marketing approaches focusing on interpersonal relationships and user-centric services.

ABSTRACT
This research aims to describe and analyze the appointment and confirmation of village heads in Yahukimo Regency. This research uses qualitative research procedures that produce descriptive qualitative data. The research was conducted at the Yahukimo Student Association, Wamena City, Papua Mountains. Data sources include primary and secondary data. The data collection techniques used were observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis in this research uses the analytical technique model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana (2014). The results of this research show that the election of village heads in the Yahukimo Regency does not apply Law No. 6 of 2024 concerning villages but uses a system of appointment and confirmation by Yahukimo Regency officials without considering existing legal regulations. This could be due to the game of interests between the regents and deputy regents in the Yahukimo Regency. Human resources, especially village officials in Yahukimo Regency, could be higher, which impacts all village management and services that need to be developed and developed as usual. The management of the village bureaucracy could be better due to a shortage of labor and village heads who spend their time in the city with people's money without considering the community. In addition, the level of community participation could be much higher. This happens because leaders are authoritarian and corrupt and must do important tasks better. Community participation is very important for village development. For this reason, village communities from all groups must be involved in creating, implementing, and evaluating village policies. To ensure that the village head's policies are implemented on target.
