Abstract：Telepresence robots in librariesapplications and challenges Purpose The main purpose of this paper is to explore telepresence robots are being used in libraries to facilitate library services and also to explain the future trend in the application of robots in librariesDesignmethodologyapproach Through a review of the literaturethis paper analyzes various library websites and consults literature relating to the use of telepresence robots in librariesthe current application of robots in libraries has been highlighted along with case studies of libraries currently adopting telepresence robotsFindings The uses of telepresence technology in libraries help to enhance library servicesreach new users and provide a more inclusive and accessible library experienceTelepresence robots enhance the quality and accessibility of library servicesexpand library outreach and provide new opportunities for virtual engagement and programmingThe application of telepresence robots in libraries can offer many benefitsbut there are also several challenges that libraries must address to ensure successful implementationOriginalityvalue This paper highlights how the application of telepresence robots in libraries improves service productivity in libraries and creates a more engaging environment for the user groupThe benefits and challenges of using robots in the library and the future trend in the application of telepresence robots in libraries are also discussedConsulting ServiceRemote the existence of robots can help users access libraries remotely and interact with staff or other usersLibrary AutomationThrough remote existence of robotscertain automation services may be more easily provided to usersThis article mainly discusses the remote robot used in the libraryThese robots can enhance the quality and accessibility of library servicesexpand the outbound libraryand provide new opportunities for virtual participation and programming
