ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN ACADEMIC LIBRARIES AND ITS IMPACT ON LIBRARY SERVICES AND OPERATIONS

Abstract

This study investigates the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in academic libraries and its impact on library services and operations. Through an analysis of current literature and statistical data, this research aims to understand the challenges, opportunities, and implications of AI adoption in academic library settings. The study explores various AI applications such as virtual assistants, recommendation systems, and data analytics, and assesses their effectiveness in enhancing user experiences and optimizing library functions. By examining the theoretical framework and posing research questions, this study seeks to contribute to the growing body of knowledge on AI in libraries and provide insights for librarians, administrators, and policymakers
