About

Solomon Olusegun Oyetola is an emerging scholar whose research sits at the dynamic intersection of library science, emerging technologies, and information services in Nigeria. His work has become increasingly influential in shaping conversations around the modernization of academic libraries across Africa, with a particular focus on artificial intelligence and robotic technologies. Oyetola's most cited contribution, his 2022 investigation into academic librarians' readiness to adopt robotic technologies in Nigerian university libraries (41 citations), broke new ground by empirically assessing institutional preparedness in a context often overlooked in global library science discourse. This work was complemented by his widely recognized 2023 examination of artificial intelligence's potential applications and implications for contemporary Nigerian library services (39 citations), which urgently argued that libraries risk obsolescence without embracing technological innovation. His 2024 study on Library and Information Science educators' perceptions of AI adoption (20 citations) further extended his scholarly reach into professional education and capacity building. Collectively, Oyetola's research has garnered over 100 citations, establishing him as a significant voice in the advocacy for technology-driven transformation of library and information services in twenty-first century Nigeria and the broader African region.
