Abstract
The role of college libraries continues to evolve to become more inclusive, aiming to provide equitable access to resources for all students, including those with disabilities. AI offers great potential in this regard, enabling the creation of an "Inclusion Corner" in college libraries. This study discusses the application of AI technology to enhance accessibility and inclusivity in college libraries, using a descriptive qualitative design with a literature review method. The initial step of this research involves collecting secondary data from journal articles, books, reports, and other relevant sources. The results of this review indicate that AI can improve library accessibility through personalized services, sign language translation, and other accessibility support. Integrating AI technology can preserve and digitize library collections, making them more accessible to a broader audience, supporting the goal of building an Inclusion Corner in college libraries to provide equal access to digital information for all students. The British Library and the University of Liverpool Library are examples of successful AI implementation, using AI to organize digital collections and provide personalized reading recommendations. The main challenges in implementing AI include data privacy, staff training, the digital divide, budget constraints, user trust, and technological infrastructure. Integrating AI technology not only enhances accessibility but also personalizes the learning experience for students with disabilities. However, challenges such as the need for ongoing staff training and ensuring ethical AI use were identified. Future research should focus on developing more advanced AI applications and addressing the technical and ethical issues related to their use. With the right strategies and strong policies, college libraries can leverage AI to build effective Inclusion Corners, provide equal access to information, and support diversity and inclusion within the academic community.
