Artificial intelligence as a support for librarians who buy scientific documents: what factor do they take into account?

Abstract

With the arrival of advanced technologies, the search for good documentation has become a very sophisticated practice in terms of tools and methods. In this context, a librarian seeks to improve his process of investigation and evaluation of pre-existing studies before starting a purchase operation. For this reason, three factors were discussed relying on artificial intelligence as an integral practice: how to index a document in order to identify the most important information, how to summarize a paper or a group of papers by integrating the sentences most representative of each other and finally, how to classify the citations in order to clearly identify the most popular studies over the others.
