Guidelines for the use of GenAI during library instruction are provided in the Library Instruction & AI section. AI tools will be introduced at the request of course instructors and used to support skills being taught during library sessions. Librarians will work with professors to suggest appropriate options for use of AI tools that support library instruction and course assignment outcomes.
Use of GenAI during library instruction will include identifying the purpose for tool use (e.g., research), an overview of relevant AI terms, discussion of ethics (e.g., privacy and content), and review of AU academic integrity policy compliance. ACRL Framework for Information Literacy standards, learner knowledge practices and dispositions, will be identified. Library guide examples are provided in the drop down menu.
