The Library 5.0: AI, traditions and boundless knowledge

East Kazakhstan Regional Pushkin Library activity is aimed at introducing innovative technologies. In recent years more than 35 projects have been implemented, and among the latest innovations are projects that are based on the use of Artificial Intelligence. The project neuro-assistant DosAi is the first artificial intelligence assistant in the library community of Kazakhstan. It is integrated with the library website www.pushkinlibrary.kz , which simplifies search for books and navigation through electronic resources, provides personalized recommendations, informs about library events, etc. The "Legends of East Kazakhstan" project is based on the idea of preserving the cultural heritage associated with the unique natural, historical, and sacred sites of our land. The project culminated in the creation of an online portal, https://anyz.pushkinlibrary.kz, which operates in Kazakh, Russian, and English languages. This portal houses an electronic full-text folklore library, thematic video podcasts, interviews, illustrations for legends, and more. The project is open to all who share its vision. For instance, illustrations for the legends were created by students from the art school, and volunteers from the American Corner contributed to the voiceovers. Our experience shows that Artificial Intelligence in the library is not just an innovation, but a real tool to improve user service. And this gives us confidence that implementing AI has great prospects".
