Abstract

Libraries remain vital centers of knowledge, fostering learning and research while adapting to technological change. With the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI), traditional processes such as cataloging, classification, and resource management are being streamlined. AI-powered tools like chatbots enhance accessibility by assisting users around the clock and personalizing recommendations. However, challenges include the risk of overreliance on AI and the need for librarians to guide users in critical evaluation. The synergy between libraries and AI highlights opportunities for innovation while preserving the library’s mission of disseminating inclusive and meaningful knowledge.
