Recent initiative by Government of India to develop Smart Cities has set forth a cycle of socio-economic growth and development to improve the quality of life. The focus is on to tap digital and information technology for the sustainable and inclusive development of the society. Public libraries play a crucial role in the promotion of sustainable development of a democratic society. They are capable of responding to various information needs of the community and, thus, could be evolved as a knowledge convergence center. Availability of advanced ICT tools such as smart phones and cloud computing have enabled libraries to enhance their services and improve outreach. This paper attempts to conceptualize a model for a smart library information system that utilizes the smart features of the recent technological tools for the enhancement of library services. The model proposes a shared architecture for wider availability of information resources and a system to support multi-tenants and gather people's knowledge for the development of the society at large. The study also indicates the necessity of the smart library information system for a prosperous India.Keywords

The public library has a social mission; to provide various types of information, documents, books and e-services to fulfill information needs of its users. It exists to serve different communities. It works as a local gateway of knowledge which provides a basic condition for lifelong learning, independent decision-making and cultural development of the individual and various social groups. The government of India currently working on a smart city mission to enhances Indian cities1. The government of India has signed MOU with Japan to implement Kyoto city module for the development of Varanasi2. Public library services component appears to be missing in the smart city plan. In this study, 14 libraries were personally visited and data collected. Most of the public libraries are based on conventional services module which are inadequate in the current changing environment. Public library services need to be reengineered and some of the areas which need to be considered for this purpose are identified.Keywords
