As libraries chart a course in the age of AI, there are a host of ethical issues we'll need to navigate, both as individuals and as organizations. This talk will discuss a number of concerns, including algorithmic bias, user privacy, and copyright/intellectual property, as we work to answer the question: how can we adapt to a changing technology landscape while staying true to our professional ethics? 
 
Learning Objectives:
  • Identify library-specific AI ethical concerns. 
  • Explore case studies in AI ethics. 
  • Review library ethical frameworks.
