ALA In-person and Virtual AI Interest Group Event -- Notes for both & Recording of Virtual Event

  • 1.  ALA In-person and Virtual AI Interest Group Event -- Notes for both & Recording of Virtual Event

    Posted Sep 08, 2025 12:01 PM

    Hello all,

    It's been great seeing the calls for survey participation, for teaching and learning objects, and more related to AI in higher ed and college and university libraries!

    Now that the academic year has started and Fall is in the air, Heather, Amanda, and I, your Conveners for our AI Interest Group are meeting this week and will follow up with updates and new engagement opportunities  -- keep an eye out for these in the coming weeks. We'll be building on ideas you all have shared and that we've discussed in events over the last several months.

    In the meantime:

    Check out the * materials from our summer ALA Annual AI Discussion Group (now Interest Group) Events * in-person and virtual!

    • Agenda (for both)
      • Notes in the Workspace for each of the 5 discussion groups are linked in the agenda
    • Recording (~29 min) is available for the virtual event.


    Stay cool in this end of summer weather and hope your semester is starting out with some intriguing new possibilities.

    ~Ginny, Heather, Amanda
