In recent years, among such rapidly developing technologies are augmented intelligence and augmented reality. Augmented intelligence is a technology that combines artificial intelligence with human intelligence to achieve operation. On the other hand, augmented reality is a technology where users interact through the lens of a camera and feel as if they work in a real-world environment. In this milieu, it is imperative for libraries to use these technologies and offer a strategic medium through which libraries can deliver the information to the patrons. The subject of this article is to explore the concept of augmented intelligence and augmented reality and their application in libraries.
