DPI Releases AI Guidance for Schools and Libraries


Hello, library colleagues!

I'm pleased to be sharing info about the DPI's "version #1" of AI Guidance for Schools and Libraries, which Monica Treptow (our School Library Media Education Consultant, also on the Library Services Team) and I helped develop. The document was developed with cross-agency expertise, and aims to offer a digestible overview of current AI considerations in the context of schools and libraries. 

Obviously, discussions / guidance / best practices related to AI training, usage, etc., will be an ongoing focus for our field, and things will continue to evolve; we will do our best on the Library Services Team to be engaged in those conversations however possible. See more info about the AI document via the DPI ConnectEd article below; it includes a link to the full AI Guidance Document, as well.
Feel free to share with anyone in your networks who might have questions about DPI's current considerations of AI, or who might be interested in AI technologies and schools/libraries.

Let me know if you have any questions and I'll be happy to answer if I can,

Best,

~Chris
