The Emirates Library and Information Association will host the second UAE Libraries Forum on 12–13 January at the Sharjah Book Authority (SBA) headquarters. The event will focus on how libraries can balance the integration of artificial intelligence with the human dimension of knowledge.
Held under the patronage of H.H. Sheikha Bodour bint Sultan Al Qasimi, Chairperson of the Sharjah Book Authority, the forum aims to highlight the evolving role of libraries in promoting culture and learning, while exploring digital transformation, creativity, and the adoption of new technologies.
The forum will bring together a distinguished group of local and international experts and specialists in libraries and information management.
The programme will feature a series of panel discussions and workshops covering the latest practices and global trends in library development, as well as the role of libraries in supporting knowledge-based communities.
Fahad Ali Al Maamari, Chairman of the Emirates Library and Information Association, noted that the patronage of H.H. Sheikha Bodour signifies strong support for the library and information sector, reflecting Sharjah’s commitment to positioning itself as a global hub for culture and knowledge.
