And to identify the tools, techniques and requirements necessary to move towards library and information services Smarter as an imperative imposed by the current era on library and information institutions, then study the extent to which smart knowledge content and information sources support smart library and information services, so that we can form a clear picture about smart library and information services and the role and advantages that they can provide to Arab academic libraries. The researcher used the descriptive analytical method to apply it to 29 international academic libraries representing the highest ranking in the most important international classifications of universities, then directing a set of questions and phrases that came in the checklist, which included 52 questions distributed on 5 main axes that achieve the objectives of the study and answer its questions and hypotheses proposed scientific. The study reached a set of results and the relationships between smart services and the axes of the scientific study, where the results came out in four main axes that represent the answer to the questions of the study, and the most important of these results was that most university libraries that provided smart library and information services are the University of Washington Library, which provides 11 smart services. Then the libraries of Princeton, California and Peking universities, with an average of 10 smart services, and the lowest universities were the University of Chicago Library and the University College London Library, where they provide two smart services. Also, one of the most prominent smart services provided by the libraries under study is the smart search, which includes the unified search in all digital sources and the matching search. The study also recommends the necessity of the participation of international academic libraries, Arab academic libraries, experiences and smart services in technical activities and operations, not only at the level of use, but in the design and production of services and smart content, and that Arab libraries should avoid fear of modern technologies, especially the field of artificial intelligence applications. Currently.
