Abstract

This chapter discusses the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) in academic libraries and the impact of AI related technologies on various library services. AI impacts research and educational activities in academic institutions so they can provide adequate operations and collaborative technologies in order to support diverse curricula and research. The complexity of research workflows and their variability couples with increasing demand for effective personalized education, so it acts as a driving force for application of AI related technologies. AI assisted library services demand reimaging traditional libraries' roles, so that librarians would become not only users of AI technologies but also co-creators and experts capable of conceptualizing AI driven services to library patrons. That requires librarians to promote AI literacy as a framework encompassing research literacy and data literacy, and understood as a necessary skill set for effectively communicating in an AI driven medium.
