Join us for the Northern Ohio Technical Services Librarians (NOTSL) Fall General Meeting: Byte-Sized Libraries: AI in Cataloging, Acquisitions, and Beyond. This event will explore the impact of artificial intelligence in key areas of library technical services.
Terry Reese, Head of Digital Initiatives and Digital Integrations at The Ohio State University Libraries, will be the Keynote speaker. This session will discuss how tools using Generative AI are impacting the development and management of bibliographic data.
Nat Gustafson-Sundell, Collections Librarian, & Evan Rusch, Reference Librarian, from Minnesota State University, Mankato will present "An overview of Generative AI experiments at Minnesota State University, Mankato (so far)." This session will cover several experiments and initiatives focused on Generative Artificial Intelligence. We provided several examples at the Generative AI in Libraries (GAIL) conference. We will present a revised and expanded overview of our experiments at the Northern Ohio Technical Services Librarians (NOTSL) Fall General Meeting.
Jeannette Mazur, Electronic Services Content Analyst, will present "AI and cataloging: The good, the bad and the Ugly." Key topics include AI Basics, creating MARC records with AI, and future AI improvements to the OPAC. The potential pitfalls are also examined, such as the costs of AI OPACs, the expertise required for implementation, and the ongoing need to manage hallucinations and biases.
Several librarians from New York University, will present "Knowledge Access AI Study Group: A Space for Learning about AI and Assessing Its Impact on Metadata." This session includes three brief demos, showcasing the lightning talks from the AI Study Group, which was established to demystify AI and understand its impact on the metadata operations through reading, testing.
