Abstract

Voice assistants are a revolutionary technology that has changed how we interact with our devices. It enables users to use their voice to control their devices and access information, entertainment, and services. Voice assistants provide a hands-free, convenient, intuitive way to interact with technology. This paper describes how Voice Assistants, such as Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri, are becoming increasingly popular in libraries. Voice assistants are being used in libraries to increase access to library materials. By accessing the library catalog, voice assistants can help users find and reserve books and other materials. It can even provide recommendations based on a user's past selections and personal preferences. Furthermore, by providing hands-free access to library materials, voice assistants can save librarians time and energy by eliminating the need for face-to-face interactions with customers. In this paper, the authors also discussed how it is essential to consider Voice Assistants' strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT).
