AI Ethics and Literacy in Academic Libraries – Share your views!
Our 2024 University of Strathclyde placement student, Shona McKenzie, is conducting a study into the AI literacy needs of academic library staff in Scotland, with a consideration of overarching ethical codes of conduct for librarians and information professionals.
Shona’s survey aims to collect responses from academic library staff in Scotland to gauge current levels of AI literacy amongst academic library staff, as well as the wider perspectives of staff members in the context of library ethics. This information can hopefully be used to recommend how academic institutions could provide more sufficient practical and ethical frameworks, tools, or training for academic library staff to ethically navigate AI and develop AI literacies within their institutions.
