The transformative changes enabled by digital technologies require libraries to rethink their role of curators and keepers of knowledge, and of facilitators of education and dialogue.
The goal of the Future Libraries Lab is to stimulate the conceptualization and realization of the public and academic libraries that are needed in tomorrow's world.
Researchers in the lab will seek answers to questions such as: What role can innovative technologies like Artificial Intelligence play in enabling, facilitating, and mediating access to knowledge? How can the design of library processes and programs be changed to accommodate the knowledge needs of a digital and diverse society?
