This study seeks to identify the potential role of AI-driven assistive technologies in enhancing access to libraries for persons with varying degrees of challenges. Traditional libraries pose a problem to many users with vision and mobility, among other conditions related to physical and infirmities. This mixed-methods research approach will examine ways in which AI-powered assistive tools and applications associated with text-to-speech, navigation systems, and personalized assistants are revolutionizing library services through a literature review, survey methods, interviews, and case studies. Our findings suggest that these technologies greatly increase the autonomy and participation of people with physical disabilities, providing personalized support and access to a wide range of resources. From this, some key findings have been deduced from the research, showing a strong impact on user experience and efficiency in services, while at the same time bringing out important considerations related to privacy and ethical implementation. This study highlights the central role of AI in making library settings more inclusive, thereby allowing equal access to knowledge and participation in the community. Such insight thus serves professionals working in libraries, policymakers, and technology developers for innovations to occur uninterruptedly, with future research directions proposed that would refine such technologies, especially toward the special needs of diverse populations. By adopting AI, libraries could uphold their mission of providing equal access to knowledge through full and equal participation of all persons, regardless of any type of physical ability, in the learning and community activities carried out by the library. This study paves the way for future innovations in creating more accessible and inclusive library spaces.
