By combining quantitative statistics (structured data such as activity name, sponsor, audience characteristics, and organizational form) with qualitative analysis (text mining of lecture training content), the current status of AI literacy lecture training in their university libraries is systematically examined. The study found that China’s “Double First-Class” university libraries have the following prominent problems in AI literacy lecture training: the degree of attention and implementation strength are different, the participation of librarians is low, lecture training mainly relies on teachers outside the library, the lecture training content is unbalanced, there is a lack of AI cognition and AI ethics, AI lecture training lacks systematicness, and AI skills education is out of touch with practical applications. Based on an international comparative perspective, the paper proposes eight optimization strategies: Strengthen the emphasis and implementation of AI literacy lecture training, provide continuous AI literacy lecture training for librarians and strengthen the construction of AI-Literate librarians, improve AI lecture training content and strengthen AI cognition and AI ethics education, establishing the AI workshop series: achieving systematic and comprehensive craining, increase AI practice components, holding geneAI research cafe, and cooperate with multiple institutions to organize AI lecture training, in order to provide practical reference for the innovative development of AI literacy education system in university libraries around the world.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47762,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Academic Librarianship","volume":"51 5","pages":"Article 103111"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144711240","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is important in transnational settings, where students arrive with different expectations of academic practice. This study applies the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) as a theoretical lens to analyse first-year undergraduate students' intended information-seeking actions at a British university branch campus in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Data was collected from 151 first-year undergraduate students from nine disciplines who described how they intended to find, use, and manage information for their assignments. Well-established frameworks are used alongside the TPB constructs of attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control to investigate students' research approaches. Data underwent a reflexive process, revealing patterns in how students navigate between the expectations of a Western academic institution and their existing research practices. Findings suggest that students demonstrating high perceived behavioural control often align strongly with institutional norms, particularly in evaluating sources and research strategies. However, many students display a hybrid approach, combining pre-university habits with newly acquired academic practices. The study contributes to understanding how students develop research intentions and behaviours in their early university experience, offering insights for targeted information literacy support.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47762,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Academic Librarianship","volume":"51 5","pages":"Article 103096"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144262221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most existing studies rely on static evaluation methods, which are insufficient to capture the dynamic patterns and trends of service quality and lack effective monitoring tools in the context of evolving technologies and user demands. To address this gap, this study introduces a system dynamics approach to construct a dynamic evaluation model for smart knowledge service quality in academic libraries. The proposed model comprises three interrelated dimensions—service support, service content, and service effect—each represented by a set of quantifiable indicators. Causal loop diagrams and stock-flow models are employed to characterize the interactions and feedback mechanisms among these indicators. The results demonstrate that the model effectively captures the evolution process of service quality and provides a scientific basis and practical guidance for resource allocation, service optimization, and the advancement of smartification in academic libraries.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47762,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Academic Librarianship","volume":"51 5","pages":"Article 103128"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145009965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We identified three key configurations: “management-service-driven,” “multi-dimensional collaboration,” and “facility-service-driven.” These configurations consider curriculum design, support management, space facilities, diversified services, and the absence of extracurricular activities as core conditions.

This study aims to: (i) systematically analyze the publication characteristics of RDM-related research, (ii) identify its key research topics and to reveal its semantic structures and thematic features. To achieve this, a combination of bibliometric analysis and BERTopic-based topic modeling was applied to 1154 RDM-related articles indexed in the Web of Science database from 2005 to 2024. The results show a notable increase in RDM research outputs since the FAIR principles were introduced in 2016, with journals coming from the fields of library science, information science, and medical informatics highlighting the interdisciplinary nature of the field. Analysis of international collaboration shows that the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany occupy a central position, with increasingly diverse patterns of global collaboration. The BERTopic modeling identified 18 representative topics, which were divided into four semantically coherent research directions: Cluster 1 focuses on institutional services, capacity development, and platform support; Cluster 2 focuses on data citation, research assessment, and collaboration networks, emphasizing the role of RDM in assessing impact and scholarly collaboration; Cluster 3 addresses data sharing, reuse and misuse, highlighting governance challenges related to data use norms and risk control; Cluster 4 covers open science strategies, open access publishing and journal data policies, highlighting how RDM is increasingly embedded in scholarly communication. This study fills gaps in previous reviews on subject hierarchy and semantic modeling and provides theoretical insights and methodological support for strengthening research data governance and fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47762,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Academic Librarianship","volume":"51 5","pages":"Article 103126"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144908694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
