The University of Central Florida Libraries’ is pleased to announce the third annual Teaching & Learning with AI conference, which features a Library Track, to be held from Wednesday, May 28, to Friday, May 30, in Orlando, Florida. The call for proposals is now open and we invite academic librarians and library workers to submit a proposal to the Library Track.
Call for Proposals
Participants from academic libraries are encouraged to submit proposals. Individual and team proposals are equally welcome. The conference is in-person only and the Library Track has two formats:
- 25-minute interactive presentations for sharing examples of library implementations or practices related to AI in academic libraries, or that challenge participants to discuss deeper, not-easily-answered questions about AI in libraries
- Poster sessions can be on any topic related to AI in Libraries and may be digital or print
Example topics for the Library Track
- AI-assisted content and metadata creation
- Ethical considerations related to AI and its use in libraries
- Library and institutional policies around the use of AI
- Professional development and support in learning AI in libraries
- AI literacy and critical thinking with AI
- Prompt engineering in libraries
- Intellectual property issues related to incorporating licensed content into AI and text and data mining projects
- Incorporating AI into library applications and processes
- Using AI with open access and open educational resources
- AI and digital scholarship, research support, and instruction services
Note: Because this is primarily a sharing conference, priority will be given to proposals that have clear ideas for takeaways that participants can use in their own libraries.
The deadline to submit a proposal is Friday, January 17. Acceptance decisions will be sent in mid-February.
Further details, including registration costs, hotels, and opportunities to sponsor can be found on the conference website. Questions may be sent to teachwithai@ucf.edu.
