Background of the study
Personalization in academic libraries is pivotal for enhancing user engagement and study effectiveness. At Federal College of Education, Eha-Amufu Library, Enugu State, AI is being harnessed to tailor the library experience to individual student needs. Using machine learning algorithms and user data analysis, AI systems can offer personalized book recommendations, study resources, and tailored learning pathways (Smith, 2023). This customized approach not only improves resource accessibility but also helps students navigate the vast array of academic materials efficiently. AI-driven personalization can adapt to changing user preferences and study habits, ensuring that students receive relevant and timely support for their academic pursuits. However, challenges such as data privacy, system integration, and the initial cost of implementing AI personalization persist (Adams, 2024). This study investigates how AI technologies are being deployed to enhance the personalized study experience in the library, aiming to identify best practices and potential improvements for greater student satisfaction and academic performance (Brown, 2025).
