Abstract
Artificial intelligence has taken over many industries and is seen as a continuation of human intelligence. Artificial intelligence applications in libraries have revolutionized the information industry. Additionally, it has given modern libraries' development fresh life. It is believed that integrating artificial intelligence into library operations will open up new internet resources for libraries. Virtual reality, which engages users with libraries and improves information literacy abilities, is one of the valid innovations that librarians are constantly utilizing to engage and expand services for their patrons. It wouldn't be incorrect to argue that the development of the computer accelerated the process of digitization, much as the discovery of the wheel ushered in the mechanical age of human existence. Humans are the only animals with the innate ability to think for themselves. With the power of independent thought, humans have created a great deal of innovative technologies. One example of them is the development of the computer. The most significant development in computer technology that humans have made with the use of their intelligence is artificial intelligence. The goal of the computer science field of artificial intelligence is to build computers with human-like intelligence. Almost everywhere that computers are used, artificial intelligence is now being deployed. The need for this is growing daily, namely in the areas of science, health, automobiles, engineering, climates, business, pharmaceuticals, and academic libraries. AI must be used in libraries for both technical and library services purposes. The application of AI will expedite and improve the quality of work done in libraries, allowing them to offer a greater number of services with fewer staff members.
