(26 Jun 2026) Choice is pleased to announce a new email-based micro-course on AI for academic libraries. Building on last year’s popular eight-module series, “AI Literacy Essentials for Academic Libraries”, this new offering was developed by Choice’s LibTech Insights team, once again with support from Clarivate, a global leader in transformative intelligence. Three new modules will be released monthly, providing self-paced, practical guidance on emerging challenges and opportunities in campus AI implementation. Created with contributions from academic library professionals, each lesson will feature curated readings, multimedia content, case studies, and interviews with thought leaders.
Since 2023, LibTech Insights (LTI) has featured technology-focused library professionals exploring AI at the intersection of librarianship and technology through weekly blog posts, webinars, and podcasts. This ongoing collaboration with Clarivate enhances that expertise with the company’s leadership in academic AI, reflected in initiatives such as its Academic AI platform, the global Pulse of the Library survey, and its broad suite of AI-native solutions and research assistants.
