LibraryLinkNJ and the LibraryLinkNJ Technology Advisory Group (L-TAG) are delighted to share the success of the recently concluded “AI Ambassadors” program, a transformative AI training series tailored for tech-savvy library staff from multitype libraries across New Jersey.
The AI Ambassadors program consisted of three insightful virtual sessions and a dynamic in-person event, attracting a diverse group of 20 participants eager to explore the realms of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The series covered a spectrum of topics, providing participants with a robust foundation in AI concepts, hands-on experiences with cutting-edge AI tools, and practical insights into integrating AI applications within library settings.
The AI Ambassadors program successfully trained over 80 library staff members on the fundamentals of artificial intelligence. The workshops covered AI basics, effective tool usage, and productivity benefits. The program emphasized continuous learning, with Ambassadors sharing their experiences and providing feedback for future sessions. The goal is to demystify AI and empower library staff to utilize AI tools effectively, adapting to the evolving landscape of modern librarianship.
