The 14th episode of the podcast “Digital Humanities”, titled “The Library and Digital Tools for Researchers,” has been released. In this episode, Haralds Matulis engages in a thoughtful and approachable conversation with Uldis Zariņš, Director of the Library of the University of Latvia.
We discussed the Library of the University of Latvia (LUL) as both a physical and digital library, and explored its role among other University of Latvia units involved in digital transformation. We talked about the first digital tools researchers encounter through the library (the Union Catalogue and Primo), whether artificial intelligence (AI) will fundamentally change library work, and what aspects are likely to remain unchanged.
