  • 1.  Collection Development Policy - AI Generated Materials

    Posted 22 days ago

    Hello- 

    Our Collection Development Policy is going to be coming up for review/revision. I believe it is likely we will want to add language at this time addressing AI-generated materials, in some way.

    If your library has added language regarding AI to your Collection Development Policy, would you share a link to your policy? It would be great if I could get a range of policy responses to AI-generated materials, restrictive, nuanced, and permissive. 

    Thank you in advance.

    Ours has to be officially approved still, but here is the phrase we landed on for inclusion in our Collection Development policy: 

    Roanoke County Public Library recognizes an emerging trend of works created using generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) and will make reasonable efforts to not purchase works that are entirely created or narrated by AI.
