Artificial intelligence (AI) is a disruptive technology that has the potential to revolutionise how information is accessed, processed, and utilised. AI has the capability to personalise learning experiences, provide tailored recommendations, and enhance information retrieval processes, thereby contributing to the development of critical information literacy (IL) skills among library users. This study aims to examine the impact of AI on teaching and improving IL in higher education by determining the use and approaches used for IL provisioning in academic libraries. It also examines how IL pedagogy and librarian roles have evolved in response to new learning settings and AI technologies.
