(29 Aug 2024) The latest LTI white paper aims to gain a better understanding of the place of AI literacy in information literacy instruction.
With increased discussions around generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools, such as ChatGPT, librarians are now confronted with accessible AI technology that students are using to offset their research and writing tasks.
While information literacy frameworks and standards have traditionally helped librarians plan their instruction sessions, these structures do not address AI. With the intent to help gain a better understanding of the place of AI literacy in information literacy instruction at academic libraries, Choice and its technology content channel, LibTech Insights, with generous underwriting by Taylor and Francis, have created the White Paper, “AI Literacy Framework: Perspectives from Instruction Librarians and Current Information Literacy Tools”. This white paper reports on interviews with instruction librarians about AI literacy. From the analysis of the interviews, we will identify the main themes and concerns related to AI for academic libraries and develop a robust framework for AI literacy.
