Empowering Libraries: AI-driven Tools and Techniques for Digital Transformation and Sustainable Innovation

Abstract

There is no doubt about the revolutionary effects of artificial intelligence (AI) on a variety of sectors, most notably research and education. The incorporation of AI into library procedures has become an unavoidable step, given its significance and the requirement of maintaining global competitiveness. In order to give a thorough overview of this dynamic field, the paper primarily focuses on explaining how AI-driven tools and techniques are used in various aspects of library operations. Creating machines that can perform cognitive tasks similar to those of the human brain is the main goal of artificial intelligence. Libraries can overcome physical limitations and become more intelligent and accessible by integrating artificial intelligence in a seamless manner. This article explores how the various concepts like Natural Language Processing (NLP), Large Language Model (LLM), Expert System (ES), AI-Powered Indexing Tools, Chatbots and other AI tools and techniques may change library infrastructure and services in the future, with the potential to improve outcomes for students, teachers, researchers, and readers alike. An in-depth analysis of the benefits, drawbacks, and creative uses of AI tools and technology in libraries advances a comprehensive knowledge of the field and opens the door to wise decision-making in the dynamic field of library sciences.
