“…Therefore, effective collaboration in academic libraries is not an option anymore but a necessity to cope with the rapidly changing technologies and external pressures. Blockchain technology because of its capabilities to record transactions and digital interactions in a transparent, secure, resilient, efficient and traceable way across untrusted parties, offers new opportunities for libraries’ collaboration (Hussaini et al , 2022; Kushwaha and Singh, 2021; Lee et al , 2021; Lengoatha and Seymour, 2020; Liu, 2019). Renewal of digital copyright in university libraries is not timely and easy to be infringed, which hinders the creator's right to confirm in time.…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to look into the concept of blockchain technology which stores data in a distributed, tamper-resistant setting and how this technology may affect the future library and information (LI) centers’ operations and policy. It explores the potential benefits and limitations of this technology, for LI centers are the core objectives of this paper. Design/methodology/approach A systematic review of both academic and practitioner literature was conducted. It followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (2020) standards. Findings The review shows that the decentralized nature of blockchain will transform the work in libraries and improve the inter-communication among communities. It can provide better privacy of user data thus increasing collaboration. However, there might be technological, financial, legal and social challenges that may act as hurdles to the realization of these goals in the true sense. The overall result shows that by keeping data updated, libraries can evaluate blockchain opportunities and make the best use of this technology. Practical implications Given the huge investments by industry, academic research that explores potential ramifications and supports libraries is required. The adoption of blockchain was investigated in this study from a variety of perspectives for LI center’s while also providing directions for future research. Originality/value It is evident that globally there is progress in blockchain technology development in terms of research and adoption in many industries, but the intention to adopt blockchain by libraries is still a fantasy. The lack of empirical evidence in the existing literature justifies the gap that needs to be filled. This systematic review attempts to fill the gaps in the existing knowledge which may serve as a reference for future initiatives in this field.

In history, the food sector has remained the most vulnerable and is accountable for many crises and food scandals, so to avoid this in the near future, it is essential to have better control over the flow of products and the usage of blockchain technology can achieve this control in the supply chain, which can add trust, transparency, and traceability in the entire system. This paper investigates the factors affecting blockchain adoption in the food retail supply chain and creates awareness among retail managers for its adoption in their operations. A structured literature review is performed to identify the factors and a TOE framework is adopted for the research. Factors of technology, organization and environment are taken as independent variables; the intention to adopt the technology is taken as a mediating variable and blockchain adoption is considered a dependent variable. The findings contributed that TOE factors contribute to blockchain adoption by keeping the intention to adopt the technology as a mediating variable.
