Author: Li, Lili
Abstract: Since the late of 1990s, hundreds and thousands of studies have described various emerging technologies in the fields of artificial intelligence, bioscience, computer science, medical science, nanotechnology, network technology, space science, telecommunication, and so on. However, few scholarly researches have ever been made to thoroughly explore emerging technologies and their implications on academic library information services in the digital age. The objective of this presentation is to overview most relevant emerging technologies which would impact academic library information resources, services, and instructions under web-based academic distributed information infrastructure.

The proposed presentation will include the following major sections: 1. Introduction 2. Cutting-edge Technologies vs. Emerging Technologies 3. Emerging Technologies for Academic Library Information Services 4. Opportunities and Challenges 5. Summary Target session participants include academic consultants, executives, instructors, IT specialists, librarians, managers, trainers, and other professionals who would like to know more about which emerging technologies would impact on web-based academic library information resources, services, and instructions in the digital age.
