He emphasized the necessity of everyone鈥檚 combined efforts to develop a comprehensive strategy that makes university libraries leading platforms for creativity, incubators of innovation, and centers of intellectual illumination.

Rababa鈥檃 called on the conference participants to formulate practical recommendations and initiatives that contribute to building smart libraries worthy of our universities and placing them among the world鈥檚 leaders. He urged that this gathering be the beginning of fruitful scientific partnerships and pioneering academic projects, affirming that when knowledge meets artificial intelligence, it sparks a true renaissance and opens doors that never close to human creativity.

Dr. Hindi Abdullah Hindi from Egypt delivered a speech on behalf of the participants, emphasizing that discussing smart university libraries is no longer a choice but a necessity. He highlighted that artificial intelligence and modern technologies play a vital role in developing information services and managing knowledge.

He noted that libraries are no longer just places to store books; they have become interactive environments that employ artificial intelligence, big data analysis, and personalized services for users. This transformation, he said, improves the quality of education and research. He added that libraries serve as the bridge that connects students and researchers to information quickly and accurately.

Hindi stressed that the future of Arab libraries depends on the ability to cooperate and integrate, as well as on investing in both human and technological resources, to build smart libraries capable of serving nations and future generations.
