We in the library community understand that enormous changes are at hand in our field. We are evolving from centralized, physical paper-based archives into distributed networks of quality digital knowledge. We strive to seamlessly and proactively deliver mission-critical information to the point of need; no longer bound by four walls, the library can act as a gateway to the world's knowledge.In order to achieve this grand and plausible vision, we must free ourselves from some of the more mundane tasks of our field: artificial intelligence techniques can provide us with this freedom. Copy cataloging could become automatic; some indexing could be done by machine; our users could be guided by software in their searches of integrated databases; customized and flexible programs could provide alert services for users; intelligent e-mail filtering programs could ease our information overload. Artificial intelligence applications can free our field to get on to the work of creating distributed knowledge matrices (ala H.G. Wells' world brain and Vannevar Bush's memex) and even greater things to come. If we make the best use of such existent and emerging technologies, we can achieve this transition.
