We are excited to announce a major update to the Library AI Portal! The portal has been refreshed with a new interface, providing centralized access to all of the Library’s AI-powered tools. It now serves as the gateway to our growing Library AI Ecosystem, designed to support your academic and research needs with smart, efficient solutions.

 

New Additions to the LibAI Family

 

We are delighted to introduce three brand-new AI tools:

 

LibAI Search

 

Find exact academic resources—such as journal articles, print books, databases, journals and past exam papers—effortlessly using natural language queries. Just ask what you need, and LibAI Search will deliver precise results.

 

 

 

LibAI Read

 

Evolved from LibAI ChatPDF, LibAI Read is an intelligent reading assistant that helps you analyze complex documents, extract key ideas, and generate concise summaries. Make sense of lengthy texts in no time!

 

 

 

LibAI Cite

 

A smart citation management tool that automates referencing and ensures formatting consistency across all major citation styles. Create accurate bibliographies with ease.

 

 

A Complete Library AI Ecosystem for Learning and Research

 

Together with our existing tools—LibAI Database Navigator, LibAI Chat, and Scopus AI—these new additions form the core of the Library AI Ecosystem. Whether you're searching for resources, reading complex materials, managing citations, or exploring databases, the LibAI suite supports every step of your academic journey.

 

Important Note on LibAI ChatPDF

Please note that the current LibAI ChatPDF service will continue to run until the end of 2025, after which it will be fully retired and replaced by the enhanced LibAI Read.

 

We invite all students and staff to explore the new Library AI Portal and experience a smarter way to learn and research.

 

Happy discovering!
