Letter from the Editors.

Varnum, Kenneth J. and DiPasquale, Joanna

The article discusses the growing significance of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly generalized artificial intelligence (GenAI), in libraries and their operations. It highlights the proactive engagement of libraries with GenAI technologies to shape their future, rather than passively waiting for these tools to emerge. A special issue focused on GenAI is planned for September 2026, inviting contributions from those involved in related projects to share insights on the transformative potential of GenAI in the library sector. The article also outlines several peer-reviewed articles included in the December 2025 issue, covering various applications of AI and digital resource management in libraries.
