Reminder – Survey Invitation: Using AI applications in Library Instruction

  • 1.  Reminder – Survey Invitation: Using AI applications in Library Instruction

    Posted Jun 02, 2025 04:05 PM

    Dear Colleagues, 

    This is a friendly reminder to participate in a research study that will examine aspects of generative AI that are being incorporated into academic library instruction, including knowledge, attitudes, and opinions of AI applications. By understanding the approach to AI in instructional settings and the tools used, we seek to gain insights on implementation and to assess how AI changes instructional dynamics. 

    The study is open to faculty or staff members at a post-secondary institution in the United States and consists of an online survey that should take approximately 10 minutes to complete. Please click here to access the survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/F2Q86D9

    We understand that librarians and institutions may have different approaches to AI in instruction, so whether you are personally using or are open to AI tools (or not), we encourage you to participate. 

    The survey will close on June 9, 2025. Thank you for your interest and participation. Email Jonathan Bull at jon.bull@valpo.edu for questions.

    Sincerely,

    Jonathan Bull, Valparaiso University

    Teresa Augustine, Valparaiso University
