PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to study the users’ willingness for acceptance of background music service in university libraries based on intelligent campus and to improve the intelligence level of university libraries and provide a reference for the atmosphere.Design/methodology/approachThe research method of combining theory with practice is applied, and field distribution method and network survey method are used. An algorithm model is established to investigate relevant users, and statistical analysis of the data obtained is made.FindingsThe results show that in the questionnaire survey, girls are more inclined to study in the environment of library than boys; for grade, sophomores and juniors are more inclined to go to library than other grades; through model analysis, the target users are more inclined to choose light music as background music, accounting for 65 percent. Heavy metals and other users have fewer choices, accounting for only 8 percent.Research limitations/implicationsThis questionnaire is mainly filled out in paper form on site, so it only selects some nearby students as the survey objects. However, the condition of university libraries across the country must be different due to regional differences, disciplinary differences and funding differences, so the representative sample may be insufficient. Therefore, in the follow-up research, the scope of the survey should be expanded, especially the geographical scope. It should collect as much data as possible for students of different types and genders, so as to expand the applicable scope and explanatory power of the model.Practical implicationsStarting from the library scene, this research studies the acceptance intention of users of background music service in the library, which provides reference for the improvement of the intellectualization of university libraries and their atmosphere. Although different university libraries have different operation modes and service characteristics, the conclusions of this study have certain practical significance for the library industry because the library industry has many commonalities.Originality/valueAt present, the research on the background music service of University Library based on the smart campus is relatively rare and limited to the theoretical stage. Few people have deeply explored the background music service of the library, and no scholars have quantitatively studied it. In this study, based on the questionnaire and from the perspective of users, the acceptance intention of background music service users is investigated, which provides a reference for the improvement of the intellectualization of university libraries and its atmosphere. It is a research topic of great practical significance.
