With the continuous development of the times, local university libraries in Yunnan are also undergoing a new development process in the context of integration into the national strategy. This important cultural position of the school should actively seek a path consistent with educational development, deeply integrate the important educational direction of ideological and political education for college students, and build itself into an important platform for cultivating well-rounded socialist builders and successors. Therefore, university libraries should constantly optimize their resource structure and service model in response to the needs of students’ ideological and political education. Through various forms of innovation and adjustment, they should constantly meet the diverse and individualized learning needs that arise in the process of students’ development, with the aim of maximizing the utilization of resources. Starting from the advantages of university libraries in integrating ideological and political education for college students, this paper deeply analyzes the effective paths for university libraries to integrate ideological and political education for college students, hoping to provide new ideas and methods for local university libraries to better play their educational functions in the context of Yunnan’s integration into the national strategy, and promote the in-depth development of ideological and political education for college students.
