Abstract

Libraries are embracing the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance their services and provide more efficient and personalized experiences to users. This paper explores the role of AI in library services, focusing on its applications and impact. The present article begins by discussing the integration of AI technologies such as natural language processing, machine learning, and knowledge graphs in library systems. It then examines the benefits of AI, including improved information retrieval, recommendation systems, virtual assistants, and data analytics. Ethical considerations related to AI in libraries are also addressed. The paper highlights the challenges and future directions for AI implementation, including the need for training of librarians and the importance of user acceptance. The paper contributes to a better understanding of the opportunities and challenges associated with leveraging AI in library services, ultimately paving the way for more effective and user-centric library experiences.
