MIDDLETOWN, CONNECTICUT - Choice announces the ninth publication in a series of white papers designed to provide actionable intelligence around topics of importance to the academic library community. The paper “Building an AI Literacy Framework: Perspectives from Instruction Librarians and Current Information Literacy Tools” will provide readers with a better understanding of the place of AI literacy in information literacy and empower library workers to include AI literacy in their instruction sessions.

Researched and written by Sandy Hervieux, the Head of the Nahum Gelber Law Library at McGill University, and Amanda Wheatley, Associate Librarian at McGill University, the researchers interviewed instruction librarians from the United States and Canada about AI literacy. In their analysis of the interviews, the authors identify prominent themes and concerns related to AI and developing a robust framework for AI literacy.

Commenting on the publication of the latest white paper, Choice Editor and Publisher Rachel Hendrick noted, “Librarians, as information specialists, are uniquely placed to take a leadership role in AI adoption in higher ed. I am so grateful to our authors for surveying the current state of AI literacy on campus and I hope our readers will find this whitepaper useful in revamping their information literacy courses."

A generous contribution from the Taylor & Francis Group provided funding for this research. “Building an AI Literacy Framework: Perspectives from Instruction Librarians and Current Information Literacy Tools“ has been published under a CC BY-NC 4.0 license and is available at .
