dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to identify the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on collection development in the university library in Nigeria. The study used the research survey method and descriptive research analysis. The instrument for data collection was a structured questionnaire. The population of the study comprised a total of 574 librarians in Nigeria who attended the 2024 NLA conference/Annual General Meeting (AGM) that was held at the University of Port Harcourt from 7th to 12th July, 2024. The result showed that AI technology has the potential for effective prediction, automation, analysis, elimination of repetitive tasks, forecasting, budgeting, and reviewing of collection development at the university library. The result further revealed that AI can reduce time and resource wastage in collection development, thereby boosting library collection with ease. The adoption of AI would enhance the collection development unit while improving the overall services of the university library. The research recommended the adoption of AI for the collection development unit to enhance its services.
