ekz.bibliotheksservice GmbH is a leading supplier to public libraries. Collection development specialists monitor the media market, review publications relevant to public libraries and recommend publications for acquisition. Media services for libraries are undergoing significant changes. Procurement speed and category management become more relevant. A growing focus on the needs and preferences of library patrons requires unique selection profiles even among institutions of a similar size. To meet these demands, ekz is developing AI-supported tools that help librarians make better collection development decisions, streamline cataloguing and classification processes and thus reduce procurement times. In this article, Tobias Schmid describes the development status of ekz's new tools, explains conceptual and practical design choices and gives an outlook on future developments. In addition, Schmid describes potential and limitations of rule- and AI-based tools in the analysis of metadata, identifies obstacles and provides perspectives on future iterations.
