What educators and librarians need to understand about AI research, hype, and information literacy right now

“The Library Publishing Coalition is excited to announce the release of a new AI Editorial Policy Guide. This document is designed to help editors and those involved in publishing to develop an AI policy for your publishing program. Sections include policy development and maintenance, the fundamental elements included in an AI editorial policy guide, an annotated list of selected examples of AI policies, as well as further resources to aid your policy development.
This policy was developed by the LPC Professional Development Committee as a follow up to an LPC-hosted webinar on AI Policies which included guest speakers from Ubiquity Press (Imogen Clarke) and In the Library with the Lead Pipe (Ryan Randall and Brittany Paloma Fiedler). We encourage you to watch the webinar recording as you think about your AI policy planning.
This document is being released under a Creative Commons Attribution license (CC BY), so we encourage further distribution and adaptation of this guide.
