Why does the poet most likely include this allusion to C. S. Lewis’s book The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe?

The poet most likely includes this allusion to help show that books were a source of comfort and imagination for the speaker.

Explanation:

The speaker of "A Poem for My Librarian, Mrs. Long", by Nikki Giovanni, is reminiscing about when she was younger. Back then, when there was no possibility of watching TV all the time, she delighted herself in reading books. Books are still something the speaker loves (hardcover being the preference), something that opens the door to a different world, just like the wardrobe did in "Chronicles of Narnia". However, the speaker feels safe, comforted/comfortable in this new world. Unlike the children who crossed to Narnia to find witches and lions, war and challenges, she found only happiness:

And Mrs. Long opened that wardrobe

But no lions or witches scared me

I went through

Knowing there would be

Spring

this null effect is caused by a weak manipulation and ineffective internal validity. in a scientific study, as the one dr. morimoto is trying to perfom, internal validity refers to the confidence placed in the cause-effect relationship and to how well an experiment is done and able to eliminate confounding variables.
