Image
U NDERSTANDING THE USER BEHAVIOR IN A DIGITAL LIBRARY USING AI DEEP LEARNING  Deep learning, a subsection of artificial intelligence, is a method of machine learning that allows AI to develop skills and find solutions to complex problems way faster than humans can. Deep learning allows AI to be trained in predicting outcomes based on a given set of data. An AI with access to a large amount of data and even larger amounts of computing power can be capable of predicting human behavior with great accuracy. Deep learning enables Library to get the most out of the consumer data they’ve gathered. Integrated into Information resources , deep learning opens a lot of opportunities for Libraries . The accurate prediction of purchasing behavior means Digital libraries are now able to know what their User want before they even know what they want themselves.

The Public Library and its community

Image
  The Public Library and its community “Public libraries are dynamic, socially responsive institutions, a nexus of diversity, and a lifeline for the most vulnerable among us.”  Public libraries are seen as such important third-place institutions because they and their librarians have gradually assume greater responsibility beyond lending out books. In many communities, librarians are also ad hoc social workers and navigators. They help local people figure out the complexities of life, from navigating the health system to helping those with housing needs. This “go-to” role has influenced library programming and events, with libraries providing advice and connections to health, housing, literacy, and other areas. Other sectors, such as health care, increasingly see public libraries as the main access point to a community. For instance, the National Library of Medicine is helping local librarians to be more effective local navigators by    the regular hosting of webinars and incisive trai

Augmented Reality in the 21st century Library

Image
  Augmented Reality in the 21st century Library I. INTRODUCTION Augmented reality (AR) bridges the gap between the real world and the virtual world – spatially and cognitively .  It allows to integrate the real world and the virtual world and presents information on mobile devices that directly corresponds to the physical environment. By selecting, filtering, and visualizing virtual objects context-based information can be displayed together with real world objects. AR is categorized by Gartner in its Hype Cycle for Emerging Technologies 2018 to be part of the Trough of Disillusionment. Augmented Reality integrates 3D virtual objects in a 3D real environment in real time [8]. In AR virtual objects are superimposed upon or composited with the real world, but the user can still see the real world. Therefore, AR supplements reality, rather than completely replacing it like in Virtual Reality (VR). Instead of creating a completely synthetic world (i.e., virtual world) in which the observer
