Smart Library Transformation Research Empowered by AIGC Technology

Abstract

This paper investigates the role of Artificial Intelligence and Graph Computing (AIGC) in transforming traditional libraries into smart libraries. It discusses the background and current situation of smart libraries, including their definition, development history, and characteristics. The paper then explores the implementation of AIGC technology in the core operations and services of libraries. This includes automated book classification, intelligent retrieval, voice interaction, virtual reality, data integration and sharing. The paper further presents successful case studies of AIGC implementation in libraries across different sectors. It analyses the potential challenges and future prospects of AIGC in the library transformation process, such as technical challenges, information security, policy regulation, and user demand. Finally, the paper proposes strategic approaches for driving the transformation of libraries into smart libraries using AIGC, including the development of AIGC platforms, education of AIGC talent, enhancing collaboration between AIGC and libraries, and standardising smart library development.
