It is automated and AI assisted librarians in order to search particular documents. A great video to show the world how beautiful the only largest ultra modern library looks like. Great.

      I doubt they will go back to fix up the washrooms; washrooms just don't seem to be a priority in most of China, even in the biggest metropolitans like Beijing. Being away from China for so many years, it's really hard to adjust to the washroom situation when out and about.
