In Hong Kong, most schools already use library management systems to handle daily administrative tasks such as managing book loans, keeping track of collections, and generating reports. These systems focus mainly on “management”, helping schools operate libraries more efficiently.
From Management to Reading Culture
However, as education trends evolve, schools are placing greater emphasis on inspiring students to read and on nurturing a strong reading culture in daily teaching. Traditional library management systems mainly deal with data and workflow management, offering limited support for reading promotion or learning engagement.
As a result, schools increasingly need a new generation platform that combines “library management” and “reading promotion.” Unlike traditional systems, Library Go is designed to foster reading enthusiasm and peer engagement among students.
The Vision Behind Library Go
Library Go was created in response to this shift in educational priorities. It is a smart platform that emphasizes reading promotion and peer-driven engagement while still offering a complete set of library management features. The real value lies in using technology and thoughtful design to help schools transform their libraries into centers for reading culture and learning inspiration.
AI-Driven Personalized Reading Experience
Library Go employs artificial intelligence (AI) to help teachers and students build a more engaging and personalized reading experience. The system analyzes each student’s reading interests and habits, recommending books that fit their age and preferences to encourage independent exploration.
Teachers can also design reading programs within the platform, monitor students’ reading progress and preferences, and plan reading activities or assignments more strategically.
“Creative Reading Cards”: Turning Achievements into Visible Rewards
Among Library Go’s many innovative features, the “Creative Reading Card” stands out. Based on the student’s submitted reading report, AI automatically generates a personalized reading card for each student.
The card design is creative and may include highlights from the student’s book review, favorite characters, or story inspirations. These cards can even be printed as physical collectibles, giving students a tangible sense of recognition and accomplishment—strengthening both engagement and motivation.
Enhancing Student Engagement and Writing Quality
Many teachers have noticed that after introducing the Creative Reading Card feature, students become more eager to write reading reflections and put greater effort into expressing their ideas. They look forward to seeing their personalized cards, which motivates them to read more and write better. This positive feedback loop helps improve both reading engagement and writing quality.
Value Beyond Library Management
Overall, Library Go is a platform that integrates library management, AI analytics, and innovative reading promotion features. It not only supports the administrative side of library operations but—more importantly—encourages students to transition from “having to read” to “loving to read.”
This student-centered, AI-driven design fills a gap that traditional library management systems often overlook.
Transforming the Library into a Space for Learning and Creativity
In today’s education environment, where self-directed learning and holistic development are emphasized, Library Go helps transform the school library from a place merely for borrowing books into a space that inspires imagination, creativity, and a love for reading.
For teachers, it’s a powerful tool for reading promotion; for students, it’s a fun and meaningful reading companion. By merging the best of library management and reading promotion, Library Go is helping Hong Kong schools cultivate a new culture of reading.
