The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Modern Library Services
Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is among the most influential technologies reshaping modern library services. This paper examines how AI enhances the efficiency, accuracy, and quality of library and information services. It highlights key applications such as automated cataloging, intelligent information retrieval, chatbots for reference services, personalized recommendations, and smart digital library management. The study adopts a descriptive and analytical approach based on secondary sources, including books, research articles, journals, reports, and credible online resources in library and information science. The collected literature is analyzed to explore the practical implementation and impact of AI technologies in libraries. The study emphasizes that AI enables libraries to respond more effectively to users? evolving information needs. By delivering accurate, personalized, and continuous services, AI reduces staff workload and improves user satisfaction. Although challenges such as high costs, technical infrastructure requirements, and limited skilled manpower remain, the findings suggest that with proper planning, training, and ethical implementation, AI can be successfully integrated into modern library systems.
