Conference or Developers' Day
Conference
Abstract
Whether we call the new library "the hybrid library" or "library-as-a-platform", one thing becomes clear: at the heart of every key role the new library is going to adopt are technologies that will be integrated into its services & management systems. In their efforts to provide valuable experiences to their new patrons in today’s hyper-connected digital world, libraries will find that artificial intelligence (AI) can play a critical role in updating & expanding their value proposition.
