Thanks to the amazing progress of science, we live in a digital age. Today's digital age, where we have to touch the screen with our smartphones, is a world where paper book data from the past must be digitized to be viewed. In the digital age, a digital library is a driving force for national development, and smartphones are essential to access all materials.

Many people had not experienced it before, but with the pandemic and the trend of non-face-to-face meetings, they realized how important digital libraries are. With the development of digital content, cutting-edge science is developing to enable high-speed communication in large quantities, such as large-capacity texts, videos, photos, and YouTube, and it is felt that the digitization of knowledge productivity data is essential.

In the era of Ai Chat GPT, modern people live in an era where they save time by sharing thoughts through digital resources. Now we want faster high-speed communication, and digital libraries can create knowledge productivity based on this digital high-speed communication infrastructure, which is closely related to a country's national power.

Recently, Future Nuri held a briefing at the University of Electrical and Telecommunications in Japan in cooperation with Japan's Asia Information System as part of the globalization of digital libraries in the 21st century. The reason why Japan's University of Electrical and Telecommunications is important is because of the energy of superconductors that require advanced technology, the most advanced orbital space communication, and the current Ai ChatGPT technology, books and other digital libraries. 

Future Nuri's digital library S/W TULIP has various language versions such as English, Vietnamese, Thai and Russian, and this time a Japanese version was released specifically to enter the Japanese market. According to the Japanese Ministry of Education, there are about 800 universities in Japan, but some do not have digital libraries, and some use digital library tools while paying high fees from the United States.

Japan's Asia Information System, in cooperation with the Japan Library Association, will supply and support Futurenuri's S/W TULIP digital library, which is of high quality and has the best price and service, to universities in need. Recently, Korea and Japan, as strong allies led by the United States, are working together to make a global digital leap forward.

However, Korea's Future Nuri recognized this digital library trend in 1990 and began a library automation system development project with TRIGEM, a PC manufacturing company that was releasing Korea's second-generation computers at the time. Although they are a team, they have grown up with over 30 years of computer digitization experience and have a lot of know-how in library digitization. 

In addition to digitizing the Korean government's public, institutional, corporate and university libraries and about 800 customers, Futurenuri is an industry-specialized technology company that has built a domestic electronic library system and recently expanded to 8 countries, including Vietnam, Uzbekistan, Colombia, Nepal, Mongolia, Romania and Thailand. We are securing results through digital projects for overseas libraries in several countries. In addition, in 2016, we are providing global services that differentiate Smart Learning Division's technology in overseas remote non-face-to-face education and testing solutions, including digital grading for digital applications and qualification tests.

With the development of the times, if you do not know about quantum computers and superconductors, as well as the use of Ai's ChatGPT, you will inevitably fall behind. Especially in the digital era, we realize that the digitization of knowledge about large amounts of content, text, videos, photos, etc., which enables high-speed communication such as YouTube, is essential. 

At a time when people around the world are saving time by sharing digital resources and thoughts, fast high-speed communication creates knowledge productivity based on digital high-speed communication infrastructure, which is also related to national productivity. Future Nuri is a partnership with Japan's Asia Information System. By working together, about 800 Japanese universities will provide digital age resources to those in need, contributing to Japan's rapid growth and productivity.

Especially in the era of smartphone mobility, when students use smartphones, the general public and students can easily access digital libraries through distance learning and training instead of visiting offline libraries. In this situation, digital libraries are more important than ever, and digital library solutions are ideal for building national knowledge productivity for the future.

TULIP is a 100% web-based system based on HTML that can be used regardless of OS or browser type, and is globalized to allow multilingual input and output by strictly adhering to international standards throughout the system, such as MARC, MODS, Z39.50, and Unicode. has been implemented and can support the adoption of international-level metadata for ontology and semantic web.

In addition, it provides setting functions tailored to the characteristics of various libraries and institutions, such as public/university/research institute/corporate, so that even non-experts can easily use it with built-in screen configuration and free work accessibility. In addition, the template function supports easy management of professional data with special collection functions (dissertations, research reports, meeting minutes, etc.) and convenient authentication functions. 

Based on these features, TULIP consists of the Acquisition, Catalog, Circulation and Common modules. The Acquisition system provides the ability to select, order, receive, transfer, cancel, and manage additional information obtained in previous data cleansing operations. The Catalog System consists of Bibliography Management, Transfer Management, Collection Management, Content Management, and Media Management. The circulation system is a payment, return, history, and user management system. Common modules are other modules that support notification management, code management, regulatory list management, output management, administrator management, etc.

TULIP collects and generates metadata about various forms, types, classified items or multimedia contents, and enables integrated one-stop service by linking with bibliographic information or personal information, which is required in the era of the 4th Industrial Revolution. It is the most advanced integrated electronic library focusing on user services, applying technologies such as Big Data/Ai (Artificial Intelligence)/IOT (Internet of Things) and providing a variety of additional service systems.

TULIP provides users with convenience through rich and stable functions. Anyone can easily access it with a designated ID/PW. It also provides an environment that can be easily accessed anytime, anywhere via the Internet.
