About

Dr. Shakeel Ahmad Khan is a leading voice in the evolving landscape of library and information science, with a sharp focus on the integration of emerging technologies in academic settings. His primary research areas include the adoption of robotic technologies, digital transformation in libraries, and systematic evidence synthesis. Dr. Khan’s most notable contribution is his highly cited 2024 systematic literature review (SLR) on the factors influencing robotic technology adoption in academic libraries. This seminal work, already garnering 17 citations, critically identifies the key drivers, service impacts, and persistent challenges of implementing robotic applications—from automated retrieval systems to AI-driven reference services—in academic environments. By synthesizing fragmented research, his study provides a crucial roadmap for librarians and administrators navigating technological change. Dr. Khan’s rigorous methodological approach and forward-looking analysis have positioned him as a key scholar bridging the gap between theoretical innovation and practical library management. His work continues to shape how academic libraries assess, adopt, and integrate robotic solutions to enhance user services and operational efficiency.
