Dear ALA Council,
On behalf of the ALA AI Policy Working Group, they are pleased to share the draft document, Guidance of the Use of Artificial Intelligence in Libraries.
This document is intended to support library professionals in navigating the opportunities and challenges that artificial intelligence presents for our institutions, our communities, and our profession.
The Working Group has spent considerable time examining these questions through the lens of ALA's Core Values, and they welcome your perspective as this work moves toward consideration at Annual 2026 in Chicago.
Please complete the feedback form by May 8, 2026. Your responses will be shared with the Working Group co-chairs and may inform revisions prior to Council action.

Thank you!
