This document discusses the impact of information and communication technology (ICT) on libraries. It defines ICT as technologies used to communicate and disseminate information. The main ICT components in libraries are computer technology, communication technology, and reproduction technology. ICT allows libraries to automate functions like cataloging, circulation, and reference services. It also enables new user services like remote access to online catalogs and databases. Overall, ICT has transformed libraries by improving access, services, and operations.
These slides contain various sections in libraries and their functions including ICT devices that can be used to perform these functions in the 21st century.

(b) Data: tables, charts, graphs, spreadsheets.
(c) Graphics: drawings, prints, maps, etc.
(d) Photographic images : negatives, slides, prints .
(e) Animation: including both computer generated, video, etc.
(f) Audio: speech and music digitized from cassettes, tapes, CDs, etc.
(g) Video (digital): either converted from analogue film or entirely created within a computer.
Information repackaging is a process to repackage the analyzed, consolidate information in that form which is more suitable & usable for library users. Customization of information taking into account the needs and characteristics of the individual or user groups and matching them with the information to be provided so that diffusion of information occurs.

Effects of ICT Advancements in Research and Innovation.pdfBeaJalipa
The effects of ICT advancements in research and innovation has a huge
impact for the researchers/innovators than compared to before. It is
more easy to gather data/information through technologies and it is
more efficient and faster than before
The Department of Information and Communication Technologies at Universitat Pompeu Fabra (DTIC-UPF) was created in 1999 to offer such a multidisciplinary environment. with the vision to become a leading European university department generating frontier research and advanced training at the crossroads created by the close interaction of excellent research in four key areas, namely computing, networking, cognitive sciences and biomedical sciences.
In terms of research, DTIC-UPF is the absolute leader in Spain in EU projects, including 9 prestigious ERC grants.
DTIC-UPF offers a comprehensive portfolio of 1-year research MSc’s in English, fully exploiting synergies among research lines:
- Cognitive Systems and Interactive Media (since 2007-08) offers an in-depth understanding of the design, construction and deployment of advanced autonomous artifacts, grounded in our understanding of biological, psychological and technological principles, by combining the lines in Synthetic Perceptive, Emotive and Cognitive Systems; Cognitive Media Technologies; Musical and Advanced Interaction; Interactive Technologies.
- Sound and Music Computing (since 2008-09) pushes this interdisciplinary field by combining basic engineering strengths in Signal Processing, Machine Learning and HCI with methodologies from other fields such as advanced interface design or cognitive science and psychology, reflecting the impact of ICT technologies in the music industry and research.
- Intelligent Interactive Systems (since 2012-13) trains in the design, analysis, and development of agents and robots that interact intelligently with humans and other agents; agents that can perceive, plan, act, learn, and communicate, by combining DTIC-UPF lines on Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Machine Learning, Natural Language Interaction and Big Data, with electives including distributed systems and wireless networks.
The offer is being completed with MSc’s in Computer Vision (coordinated by UAB, started in 2013-14), Brain and Cognition (started in 2014-15) and Wireless Communications (jointly with UPC, starting in 2015-16).
Professional MSc are offered throught the UPF - Barcelona School of Management, including Animation, Creation of videogames, digital arts, ICT management and sonology.
Its international PhD program in ICT’s, unique in Spain in terms of its content, aims to provide a bridge between several disciplines,and has serves as a succesful program to boost the careers of alumni in research and industrial environment, including the creation of several start-ups.
Recent awards to PhD alumni include: the Cisco Security Grand Challenge 2014, Best Young European Researcher Award (Euroscience) 2013, MIT Technology Review Innovators under 35 for Spain 2014, the Vodafone Mobile for Good Awards 2013, The National Commendation for Invention - Japan Institute of Invention and Innovation 2013, BBVA Innova Challenge 2013 International Competition on Big Da

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

23. Conclusion
• Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has affected almost every
sector of our life, brining a change in the case of people‟s think, interaction, etc.
This revolutionary change is also true in the case of libraries and information
centers. Libraries and information centers can hardly function today without
computers and information technologies. In the modern world the library and
information professions have been changed and adopted itself to the development
of information and communication technology. These technologies have acquired
the do-or-die prominence. A well-equipped library with the facilities of modern
information infrastructure and technologies could satisfy the maximum demand
of the present technology conscious users.
