Users type/upload text, tool recommends literature from our library collection based on that text. Text isn't kept for training, etc., and tool doesn't hallucinate because it doesn't give answers, just recommends literature related to the user's input.

What specific AI tools to use related to technical tasks is a different question for me right now.
