Fujitsu Japan will launch its cloud-based “Fujitsu AI Search Service” nationwide on July 1, 2025. Japan has launched its first AI-driven cloud service for library book searches. Now, users can find relevant titles using everyday language instead of just keywords.
Fujitsu’s AI is different from conventional systems. It doesn’t need specific details like book titles or authors. Instead, it can understand vague requests, like “I want to be healthy.” Then, it recommends related books by looking at bibliographic data and themes. When users pick titles, the system shows new suggestions. This helps them explore more and discover interesting options by chance.
Aoyama Gakuin University and Kadokawa Town in Miyazaki Prefecture will begin using the service. The goal is to expand it to 100 institutions by March 2028. It connects with many library systems and works with OPAC (Online Public Access Catalog) platforms.

This initiative shows that public and academic libraries want affordable, AI-powered search tools. These tools can help engage users, promote reading, and support lifelong learning. Fujitsu plans to expand its service. It will include museum archives, university syllabi, and researcher databases. This will help improve educational access and well-being.
