Rapid advancements in information technologies have also affected libraries. The digital transformation process that began with the industrial revolution has accelerated in today's world with technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence. Libraries, influenced by this process, have embraced digital library applications with the aim of facilitating access to information, providing online services, and enhancing user experiences. Particularly, e-library applications demonstrate that libraries, existing in the digital realm, adopt a human-centered approach in the Society 5.0 process, focusing on facilitating access to information, supporting educational processes, and safeguarding and sharing cultural heritage in the digital platform. Libraries are striving to develop new generation service models by integrating cyber-physical systems to enhance interaction between virtual and physical worlds. Through this vision, libraries take on significant roles in democratizing access to information, promoting lifelong learning, supporting the right to access information for society, and providing human-centered services that allow individuals to lead fully active and comfortable lives with high quality. The rapid progress of technology has directed libraries to reconsider and enrich their traditional functions. In this context, the Library 5.0 approach highlights the integration of technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things (IoT), virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) to transform libraries into centers that offer personalized, interactive, and rich experiences. The purpose of this study is to facilitate the understanding of technology and human-centered new generation library services evolving in the perspective of Society 5.0. Additionally, it aims to explore the impact of digital transformation on libraries and investigate how libraries can align with digital services and resources to comprehend their role in this technological transformation process. The study presents information about the libraries of the future and library services systematically, by employing a scanning method that systematically scans and examines existing sources in the literature. This study holds unique value as the first examination conducted in Turkey under the perspective of Society 5.0, with limited global research on this topic. The key findings from the research provide insights into how libraries can adapt to Society 5.0. The results of the study paint a positive picture regarding libraries' ability to offer personalized, interactive, and technology-supported new-generation services within the framework of Library 5.0. The research demonstrates the successful integration of technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), and Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality (AR/VR) into library services. In this context, libraries should closely monitor technological advancements and enhance staff competencies to effectively utilize these emerging technologies. Additionally, it is crucial to further develop personalized services to respond more swiftly and effectively to user needs.
