A librarian who wrote her dissertation on integrated library systems, and now helps build one. She is making sure the shift to AI is threaded with care, so it works for librarians and the communities they serve, not in place of them.
Ossus attends the American Library Association Annual Conference in Chicago to meet customers, libraries, and partners. The conference is part of the company’s outreach to the U.S. library market.
Ossus announced a $6 million funding round alongside a rebrand from Librar Labs to Ossus. The company says it aims to bring intelligence to cultural institutions, beginning with libraries.
Ossus showcases its AI-native school library system at SETT 2026 in Stockholm. The company reports that more than 300 educators, librarians, and school leaders visited its booth.
Librar added advanced natural-language search, enabling librarians and students to discover books in its catalog using conversational queries. Examples include finding books similar to Harry Potter or books where a dog is the main character.
