"Librarians have been actively collaborating and talking about it almost every day, whether it's creating tutorials and digital learning objectives or thinking about the conversations to have with instructors. It can feel like cognitive dissonance to be actively working with AI on a regular basis and also saying we're constantly thinking about the harms and the biases."
"BoodleBox, an AI platform designed for higher education institutions that allows users to engage with multiple AI tools-from ChatGPT to Claude-in a centralized, collaborative environment. BoodleBox, which prioritizes privacy and ensures no user data is used to train the large language model, is now active on more than 1,300 campuses nationwide and used by over 800,000 students and faculty."
Academic libraries are transforming into AI sandboxes and neutral spaces where institutions address AI literacy, academic integrity, and workforce readiness. Librarians are expanding their roles from archivists to AI literacy leaders, collaborating daily on tutorials, learning objectives, and faculty conversations. Platforms like BoodleBox enable centralized, privacy-protected access to multiple AI tools across campuses. Libraries balance active AI engagement with critical examination of potential harms and biases. This shift reflects librarians' evolving instructional mission to help students and faculty navigate AI responsibly while addressing ill-defined campus policies and uneven access to AI resources.
