Summary:This article, derived from a presentation at the NISO Plus 2024 Global Online Conference, explores how cultural heritage practitioners can leverage emerging technologies to enhance their work. New technologies present librarians, archivists, and other cultural heritage practitioners, with tools to streamline repetitive tasks, enrich collections, and build more interactive, accessible resources. This article highlights AI applications and emerging technologies that can generate scripts without needing coding experience, create 3D models that increase accessibility and engagement, and develop virtual exhibits that extend the lifespan and reach of physical exhibits while providing additional interactive elements. Together, these innovations provide valuable strategies for the future of cultural heritage work.
