[Context] Acquiring users' geographic positions and interests from mobile terminals, and then providing context-aware personalized service can improve user experience in library. [Methods] Select Gimbal SDK in Android environment to develop client application of academic library context-aware service, and set up Gimbal Manager parameters, including Geo-fences, communication triggers and information service content. Then, Gimbal Manager acquires user context and interests actively and pushes information content according to triggers condition. [Results] When the Android mobile phone users who install client applications enter different Geo-fences, they will receive information corresponding to personal interests pushed by Gimbal Manager. [Conclusions] The platform can provide context-aware personalized service and improve library service quality.
