Description:   

Today, July 3, 2025, Johannes Oentoro Library had the opportunity to receive a visit from Pelita Bangsa University Library. In his speech, Pak Hendra Thamrindinata as the first Vice President of Universitas Pelita Harapan expressed his hope for the library as a unit that is able to increase the understanding of the academic community (teaching lecturers, academic staff, and students) towards literacy while encouraging a love of books in the campus environment.  

Pak Dhama in the discussion also emphasized the paradigm shift of libraries and librarians from a passive role as information and collection managers to a more active role through active learning of various technologies including artificial intelligence-based technologies that emerged as the spirit of the 21st century so that libraries and librarians are still relevant and needed in society.  

During this visit, the two libraries exchanged ideas, experiences, and knowledge with the same goal of improving the quality of library services not only in the campus environment but also bringing bigger dreams, namely to contribute to advancing libraries in Indonesia.

Description: 

The rapid development of technology has introduced various artificial intelligence (AI) tools designed to support the academic writing process, making it more effective and efficient. In response to this, ONE UPH Library, in collaboration with UPH HRD, organized a workshop focused on introducing AI tools that can assist in different stages of academic writing. 

The session covered several AI platforms, including ChatGPT, Elicit, Perplexity, Consensus, and Scispace for generating ideas and drafting articles more efficiently; ResearchRabbit and Connected Papers for discovering academic literature relevant to research topics; ChatPDF, PopAI, and DocAnalyzer to assist in reading and analyzing scientific papers; as well as Grammarly and Quillbot for improving grammar, structure, and overall writing quality. 

This workshop aimed to equip participants with the practical skills to utilize these AI tools for idea generation, literature discovery, article analysis, and enhancing writing accuracy and style. 

Participants showed great enthusiasm throughout the session and left with not only new knowledge and skills but also increased confidence and motivation to integrate AI tools into their writing process, enabling them to produce academic work more effectively and efficiently.
