As technology and scholarly content creation continue to evolve rapidly, libraries face significant transformations driven by changing user behaviors, the rise of misinformation, and the need for redesigned spaces. Especially following the COVID-19 pandemic, footfalls to libraries increased significantly, prompting libraries to take action to increase seating capacity, efficient space management, embrace new publishing models, incorporate advanced technologies, and foster collaborative and inclusive environments.
This conference will explore the key challenges and opportunities libraries face in the digital age, focusing on how they are reinventing themselves to remain integral to education, research, and culture. The event will showcase innovative services and strategies that libraries are adopting to meet contemporary demands while outlining roadmaps to address the evolving needs of future generations.
The conference will also expand its scope to consider libraries as a public good—whether digital, traditional, or hybrid—offering a comprehensive perspective on their transforming role in the 21st century.
Renowned librarians, professors, and senior administrators from across India will deliver engaging and inspiring talks.
