Abstract
Library automation in academic libraries enhances efficiency by automating tasks such as cataloging, circulation, and resource management. It improves access to academic resources, streamlines workflows, and reduces manual effort, enabling libraries to offer faster and more accurate services. Automation supports research and learning by providing better information retrieval systems. However, its success depends on regular system updates, adequate staff training, and ensuring that technological solutions complement rather than replace the personalized services offered by librarians, maintaining a balanced and user-focused library environment.
