Abstract

ABSTRACTEven though academic attention has been paid to museum tourism and recently to libraries, the library-tourism nexus is comparatively an unexplored area in tourism literature. The aim of this research note is to introduce the concept of library tourism within tourism scholarship and discuss the way in which it may be integrated with future research. All participants praised India for having libraries that are loaded with rare books, references, and manuscripts that date back thousands of years in comparison to its neighbors. By linking this concept with mixed realities, this research note contributes to the future conservation of library heritage, memorable library experiences, and future tourism information services.KEYWORDS: Library tourisminformation servicesactivities-based librariestourism industrytourist culture Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Data availability statementThe data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request.Additional informationFundingThe authors report that there is no financial funding in this paper.
