Transforming Library Data Analytics into Strategic Insights with ChatGPT

DESCRIPTION

​​​​In the rapidly advancing realm of artificial intelligence (AI), libraries are well-positioned to harness these technologies for greater efficiency and impact. The University of Toronto Libraries is embracing this opportunity by exploring the use of AI, particularly ChatGPT, to enable more robust data analysis and enhance data-driven initiatives. This session will explore how artificial intelligence can simplify and improve data analysis, leading to more informed and strategic decision-making within the library context. The presentation will illustrate ChatGPT's effectiveness in cleaning and organizing disparate data, automating data enrichments, and enhancing the overall quality of library data. Additionally, the session will explore ChatGPT’s capabilities in data exploration and visualization, highlighting how AI can generate deeper insights and make data more accessible to stakeholders. Another key aspect of the discussion will be the use of ChatGPT in predictive analytics, showcasing the potential of AI to anticipate user behaviors and guide collection development. This session aims to demystify the application of artificial intelligence in library environments, illustrating its power to streamline data analysis processes, unlock new potential for data management, and enhance strategic decision-making in libraries.
