“…IoT applications in libraries include, but are not limited to, tracking the location of resources, smart circulation control, better access to resources, collection management, inventory control, notification services, membership apps, user tracking and self-guided virtual tours, data security, remote service, smart reference service, and more (Asim and Arif, 2023;Hadi, 2022;De Sarkar, 2022;Mondal, 2021;Sheeja and Susan, 2019). However, empirical evidence from developing countries like Nigeria and Pakistan show that IoT applications in university libraries are mostly restricted to smart circulation systems, RFID-based security control, and theft management (Eiriemiokhale and Olutola, 2023;Asim et al, 2022). The implementation of innovative IoT technologies in libraries can improve management effectiveness, make libraries smarter, protect library resources, improve readers' service, save users' time, reduce the cost of library maintenance and enhance staff competency (Xu, 2022;Igbinovia and Okuonghae, 2021a).…”

“…Despite the opportunities of IoT, some studies identified a number of challenges of implementing IoT technology in libraries (Asim and Arif, 2023;Asim et al, 2022;Harati et al, 2021;Igbinovia and Okuonghae, 2021a;Bansal et al, 2018;Kaba and Ramaiah, 2019;Kumar, 2016;Hoy, 2015). As there is no standard for this technology, it can exchange data using multiple companies' own parameter and thus the risk of unauthorized access and system hacking would be a common issue (Hoy, 2015).…”
