AI in the Stacks and the Supply Chain: What’s at Stake for Libraries and Publishers (EP)
Friday June 26, 2026 9:15am - 10:15am CDT
McCormick Place West - Room W471A
Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming how books are created, discovered, and accessed—but the pace of change has left many librarians and publishers uncertain about what’s responsible, legal, or sustainable. This session brings together leaders from both sectors to define what ethical AI use looks like in publishing and library practice. We’ll discuss practical guidelines for transparency, copyright protection, metadata integrity, and maintaining public trust in an era of machine-assisted creation and discovery. Rather than exploring AI hypotheticals, this conversation focuses on clear examples, emerging standards, and collaborative strategies to ensure that technology serves—not undermines—the human at the heart of our work.
