ABSTRACT

With the recent advancements in artificial intelligence, the emergence of ChatGPT is expected to bring significant changes to various industries. In particular, there are active attempts to introduce ChatGPT in the education sector, and for librarians, utilizing ChatGPT is seen as an essential element for future learning tools. Against this background, this study aimed to examine librarians’ perceptions of introducing ChatGPT in the school library through Focus Group Interviews (FGI). As a result, six themes were derived, including differences in perceptions of ChatGPT application in school libraries, teaching and learning activities utilizing ChatGPT, practical operation of ChatGPT, considerations for successful performance, librarians’ required competencies and environment (infrastructure), and the development direction of ChatGPT utilization services in school libraries. Based on these findings, implications for the necessity of educational services utilizing ChatGPT were proposed. This study is significant as the first attempt to introduce ChatGPT in the school library field.
