Dear Colleagues,

I am conducting a research study about librarians' individual values and decisions to use or refuse to use generative artificial intelligence. The aim is to help explain differences in librarian attitudes and intentions regarding generative artificial intelligence by examining how these may relate to individual values.

You are invited to participate if you currently work in an academic library and:

hold an MLIS/MLS degree
or your primary job responsibilities include providing reference, instruction, cataloging, collection development, or other information services.

Participation consists of completing an anonymous online survey that takes approximately 10-15 minutes. The survey includes questions about your personal values, your views on generative AI, and basic background information. Your responses will be completely anonymous. No identifying information will be collected, and results will be reported only in aggregate.

Your participation is entirely voluntary. You may skip any question or stop the survey at any time. There are no penalties for choosing not to participate.

Generative artificial intelligence is influencing many aspects of our professional responsibilities. Your participation will help create a deeper understanding of how our individual values inform our decisions about acceptance or refusal of generative artificial intelligence in our profession.

If you have any questions about the study, please feel free to contact:

This study has been approved by the Institutional Review Board at Millersville University.

Best regards,
