2024 Conference – June 14th, 2024
AIM Higher: The Evolving Technology of AI in Academic Libraries
The theme of this year’s conference is: AIM Higher: The Evolving Technology of AI in Academic Libraries. Institutions of higher education throughout the country may be considering their institutional environments, processes and practices with adapting to new technologies and tools available to users within Academic Libraries. Ideas include information surrounding Artificial Intelligence, Chat GPT, and how to utilize new and practical instruments across classrooms, campuses and institutions. How do we transform our academic library’s spaces and practices to build upon our institutions’ drive to keep up with ever evolving technology? This theme welcomes presentations that address new and exciting technologies in libraries such as new LIS applications, user experience design, AI and cataloging, AI content generation and utilizing these tools to best reshape your library space/information literacy sessions for the best user experience as it relates to academic libraries, etc,.
