Abstract The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 emphasizes holistic, multidisciplinary, and technology-driven education. Academic libraries, as central hubs of knowledge dissemination, must undergo strategic transformation to align with the objectives of NEP 2020. This paper explores the implications of NEP 2020 for academic libraries in India, analyzing key areas such as digital infrastructure, open educational resources, inclusivity, research support, and lifelong learning. It further proposes a framework for future-ready libraries that can contribute to innovation, academic excellence, and equity. The study identifies opportunities, challenges, and best practices that will guide libraries in adapting to the evolving higher education landscape under NEP 2020. Keywords: National Education Policy 2020, Academic Libraries, Digital Transformation, Open Access, Research Support, Multidisciplinary Learning
