Building Civic Engagement in Smart Cities: Role of Smart Libraries
Abstract
Climate change, poverty, and economic inequality are some of the threats to civilization in today's cities. This has given rise to the development of smart cities as a solution to the threat. However, this smart initiative did not solve the problem. In the face of this predicament, in order for cities to maintain their position, civic engagement must be undertaken by involving citizens in finding a collective solution with the support of smart library. Cities cannot plan or position themselves effectively until they grasp and exploit the existence of the smart library. The chapter explores the practical application of smart libraries to civic engagement. It identifies smart library strategies for building civic engagement in smart cities. The chapter also identifies possible challenges to smart library initiatives in smart cities and makes recommendations.
