Over the last few years, researcher have noticed that academic libraries in India have been changing a little bit. Technology has changed academic libraries. For this research paper, researcher studied research published between 2018 and 2025. And found most research mention about RFID systems, AI tools, e-learning platforms, digital repositories, and even upgraded integrated library software. Because of these changes, the role of librarians seems to be shifting. They are not only managing books and shelves; now they provide digital resources, and they guide and educate users on how to use e-resources. But, to be honest, this transformation is not easy everywhere. Several small libraries still face real issues- a lack of trained staff, budget issues, and ethical issues. From what researchers understand so far, if librarians get regular training, sufficient funds, updated policy, and support from the institute, then academic libraries in India can keep moving toward more learner-centered, tech-friendly environments.
