The question of how artificial intelligence and machine learning should be
applied to data in libraries and other cultural institutions is a challenge
shared by heritage professionals, computer scientists and digital humanities
scholars.

As the number of digitised and born-digital records grows, archival practices
are looking to automated systems to manage workloads and make cultural records
more accessible. AI is playing a crucial role in data management systems within
the cultural heritage sector, and information professionals are looking for ways
to navigate current challenges and opportunities. Additionally, sector
professionals and scholars are benefiting from the many new affordances and
innovative research questions offered by using large-scale digital collections
as data.

Navigating Artificial Intelligence for Cultural Heritage Organisations explores
the innovative technologies and approaches to digitised and born-digital records
within libraries and archives across the UK and US, and beyond. It brings
together chapters from experts across the fields of digital humanities, computer
science and information science, alongside professionals within the library and
archival sector. The authors explore technologies being applied to digitised and
born-digital records within libraries, archives and other heritage
organisations, including innovative approaches in computer vision, Chat GPT, and
user experience. The volume has been designed to reflect current and state-of-
the-art technologies and innovations for the preservation and accessibility of
digitised and born-digital records, to help navigate the future of AI for
cultural heritage organisations.
