Digital Transformation in Academic Libraries for Research and Learning explores the critical role academic libraries play in shaping digital environments within higher education. Through global perspectives and practical case studies, this volume highlights how libraries continually redefine their roles, embrace emerging technologies, and adapt their services to remain responsive to evolving needs. Central to the discussion is how libraries navigate significant shifts in organizational culture, pedagogical practices, and user engagement, demonstrating their agility in meeting evolving expectations within dynamic digital contexts.The chapters are organized around four central themes: Frontiers of Digital Transformation, Collaboration and Cultural Change, Technology-Driven Services, and Practical Case Studies in Digital Transformation. Collectively, these chapters illustrate the adaptability and resilience of academic libraries. Topics include artificial intelligence integration, ethical considerations of digital access management, collaborative open educational resource initiatives, machine learning in collection management, virtual reference service innovations, and user-centered co-creation of digital learning experiences.
