Abstract

Libraries have long been recognized as vital institutions for supporting student research endeavors across various educational levels. This study explores the multifaceted ways in which libraries can effectively bolster student research. Drawing from a comprehensive review of literature, surveys, interviews with librarians, and case studies of successful library programs, this research provides valuable insights into the role libraries play in enhancing the research skills and academic success of students. The findings underscore the importance of library resources, including access to scholarly databases, interlibrary loans, and research assistance, in facilitating students' information retrieval and literature review processes. Additionally, libraries' instructional programs and workshops are shown to empower students with research methodologies, information literacy, and critical thinking skills. Furthermore, this study delves into the evolving role of digital technologies and online resources in supporting student research, highlighting how libraries adapt to the changing landscape of information dissemination. Collaboration between librarians and faculty is also examined as a key factor in promoting research opportunities for students. In a rapidly evolving academic landscape, this research serves as a valuable resource for librarians, educators, and institutions seeking to optimize library services for the benefit of student researchers. By offering practical recommendations and best practices, it underscores the essential role libraries play in nurturing the next generation of scholars and fostering a culture of research excellence.

Abstract

Introduction: Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has permeated various sectors, including libraries. While AI robots have been extensively studied in many fields, research on their application in libraries remains limited. This study explores the potential, challenges, and impact of AI robot integration in future libraries. Methods: A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted using the Scopus database. Content analysis was applied to identify the use, challenges, and impact of AI robot integration in libraries, including current technologies and future projections. Results: From 592 initial articles, 21 were selected for data extraction after screening and quality assessment. The research reveals AI robots' potential to enhance service efficiency, personalization, and user experience while promoting innovation in libraries. Implementation challenges include technical, social, economic, legal, ethical, educational, and environmental aspects. Impacts include improved services, operational efficiency, and transformed staff roles. Discussion: AI robot integration in future libraries focuses on enhancing customer service, collection management, and security. Major challenges lie in educational, social, legal, and ethical domains. While significant impacts on service quality and efficiency are expected, changes in user experience and overall operations may be less dramatic. Conclusion: AI robot integration in libraries has the potential to significantly improve services and efficiency. While technical challenges can be addressed, social and legal aspects require careful consideration. A balanced approach to AI implementation is necessary to maximize benefits while minimizing disruption in the library environment.
