and digital resources through the central knowledge base, and integrates various metadata formats
and discovery systems. In addition, it integrates many open and fused services, dynamically
monitors users’ big data, and provides real-time data analysis and resource recommendation.
However, these problems are not the whole concern of the library. The supporting business
process system has not yet been established. In the case of many and miscellaneous data, the
library also needs to explore a new data management mode. This paper is to discuss these two
problems.
Benefited from the development of the new platform, the collection and editing business of the
library can be fully networked, which saves a lot of time, greatly improves the efficiency of the
second duplicate check, and the acquisition platform also becomes the intermediary for the library
to contact publishers and booksellers. The data management mode has changed from “just in case”
to “just in time”. The service mode is more active and intelligent, and new service forms, such as
robot service, intelligent recommendation and indoor navigation, have emerged. The staff of the
library should also be reconfigured according to the needs of the business, the department-centered
working mode is gradually changing to the process-centered working mode.
In the new era, many libraries have set up big data management institutions, or set up sensors in
the library space, in order to get the data of users. These data are disordered without processing, so
the library should strengthen the data management, analysis and monitoring from the perspective
of technology. For instance, libraries can build user profiles through big data analysis and mine
deep-seated high-value information to provide embedded services. Open data is used to connect
the upper, middle and lower reaches of the library ecological chain, so as to make the academic
service system complete and unified.
To achieve business optimization and data management is not easy. We need more professional
librarians and stronger alliance support. The new generation of librarians are smart librarians. Their
core business ability is no longer borrowing and consulting in the past, but how to use intelligent
technology to develop knowledge services and humanistic care for users that machines still can not
achieve.
The digital library alliance is changing to the intelligent library alliance. The trend of
decentralization is obvious, and the connotation of the alliance is richer. This is a good news for
the small and medium-sized alliance. Members of the alliance will use a sharing platform in the
cloud environment, and the power of resources and services will be more balanced. Of course, all
of these can only be realized under the support of intelligent technology.
In general, on the basis of the new generation library service platform, the acquisition,
cataloguing, data management, service and other businesses of the library must be optimized
accordingly, and data management is the top priority. Only by doing these things well can libraries
be truly user-centered and smart. In order to realize smart library, librarians and library alliance
should make efforts to ensure the sustainable development of library.
