Abstract：Taxonomy of technology in gallerieslibrariesarchives and museums Taxonomy is a state of identifying hierarchical relationships within a categoryTaxonomies are useful for organizing information for both internal and external consumptionWithin a companytaxonomy can be used for classifying documents into categories such as proposalscontractsletters and briefingsTaxonomy could involve just filing documents by year or could be a more complicated classificationEach taxonomy is designed to categorize items within just one dimensionFor examplehome improvement stores have taxonomies of their productsTools are classified into power tools and hand toolsand hand tools are classified into products like hammers and wrenches and then are further broken down into different brands and sizes of wrenchesTaxonomies have limitations as they cannot represent relationships across different domainsthey can only define categories within a domainRead more at Taxonomies could be difficult to defineand in actual factthey are defined broadly by the classifier in most casesA taxonomy of technology could be the one in which technology is broken down into different components such as industrial technologyinformation and communication technologyassistive technology and transportation technologyThe taxonomy of technology in gallerieslibrariesarchives and museumsGLAMswill look at the categories of technology used in these institutions currently and also speculate on what the taxonomies could predictably be in the futureIt is apparent that technology in many GLAMs is gradually going futuristic and is relying less on manual means but is making use of techy equipmentArtificial intelligenceAIuse of roboticsaugmented and virtual and mixed reality are the normAssistive technology is not left out of the GLAMs as wellThe trend is for these technologies to be used in greater numbers and for multiple purposes in serving clientsIndeedthe face of library and information services workers is changing as their skill sets are changing as wellThe taxonomy of librariansskills is expanding to meet the future technology needs that are evolvingRobots are a great way to get peoples attention and raise their interest in technology and most importantly in the libraryLibrarians are therefore acquiring skills in robotics and could even be learning to build robotsLibrary AutomationWith the development of technologythe automation of libraries is more and more dependent on advanced technical toolssuch as AI and robotsConsulting ServiceRobot and other AI technologies can be used for consulting and customer service to provide information and guidance for visitorsIn the articlethe robots mention is aimed at the future trend of technology in GLAMSgallerylibraryarchives and museumsRobots are regarded as a striking tool that can increase peoples interest in technology and librariesIn additionthe library is getting robotic skills and may even learn to make robots
