What NYCU Library does in ChatGPT
The NYCU Library plugin connects ChatGPT to the library of National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University in Taiwan. You can search the catalog for books, journals and dissertations across NYCU and the Taiwan United University System, and filter by campus and format.
It also shows your personal library account at a glance: what you have borrowed, when each item is due, the holds you have placed and any purchase requests you made. Results appear as book cards and an account view inside the chat, so you do not need to open the library website.
For research, it uses Semantic Scholar to search papers, read abstracts, follow citations and references, and find similar work to what you are reading. It is built for NYCU students, researchers and staff, so the account features only make sense if you have a library account at the university.
