Abstract
Abstract: The study aimed to explore academic librariesengagement with AI and their response to the growing presence of AI. Content analysis is employed to identify and assess the framing of AI, robotics and related themes in the documentation. Findings indicate only one subject mentions AI to position subject content and none mention robotics. It analyzed scholarly articles, strategic plans, and programming in top research universities in the US and Canada. The findings revealed a lack of awareness about AI trends, but a few institutions were found to be participating in or creating their own AI hubs. The study aimed to understand the librarian's role in an AI-dominant future in LIS(Library information science).
