Abstract

Data analytics, an indispensable discipline in today's digital era, has spread through diverse industries, and libraries also need to embrace its transformative potential. As they are no longer mere storehouses of books and resources rather libraries metamorphosed into vibrant epicentre of information and wisdom. Consequently, LIS education must undergo a profound metamorphosis as well, embracing data analytics as an indispensable pillar of its curriculum. This paper delves into the vast realm of data analytics, combing through the extensive literature to furnish a comprehensive panorama of its fundamental aspects, methodologies, applications, and enigmatic challenges. Additionally, it embarks on a captivating expedition tracing the evolutionary trajectory of data analytics, charting the course of its exhilarating advancements, and scrutinizing the exemplary techniques that empower libraries to harness its prowess.
