The Massachusetts Library System is pleased to announce that we have contracted with PCI Webinars to provide our members with access to their live webinars.  These webinars are free to MLS members who register through our calendar. Please do not register directly with PCI. Members who register directly with PCI are responsible for paying their registration fee. 

Please help us keep MLS sponsored training free for all members. If you are unable to attend the live webinar, please cancel your registration. A cancellation link can be found in your confirmation email, or you may contact Sarah Donnelly at sdonnelly@masslibsystem.org to cancel. 

Because we are working with an outside vendor, it is important that you cancel your registration in the event that you are unable to attend the live webinar.  A recording of the webinar will be available on the PCI Webinars Niche Academy website about a week after the live webinar.  If you have any issues registering or signing into the PCI Webinars Niche Academy website, please let us know.  Please do not contact PCI Webinars or Niche Academy directly about their live webinars or webinar recordings.

Description

Artificial Intelligence is here! We and our patrons are engaging with it every day, whether we know it or not. In this workshop, librarian Terezita Reyes Overduin will share strategies and resources for cultivating AI literacy in yourself and your patrons. 

Participants will engage with the concepts, impacts, limitations, and ethical implications of generative artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT, and come away with strategies for learning more about these tools and how to spark curiosity in your patrons about the impact AI has had on our world.

This program is part of PCI’s collaborative learning project with California Libraries. (CALL).
