This paper explores the evolution of library systems and tools from ancient civilizations to the digital age. It examines how libraries have transitioned from clay tablets and papyrus scrolls to card catalogues, integrated library systems (ILS) and modern digital tools. The study highlights significant milestones and innovations that have shaped information management and access. By understanding historical progression, we gain insights into current challenges and future possibilities in the library and information science.
