Abstract
n January 2023, just after the holiday break, I met with my Associate University Librarian to propose creating a LibGuide on ChatGPT and other emerging AI tools that had quickly become a campus talking point. As the Digital Literacy Librarian, I saw it as part of my role to help our community make sense of these technologies during a period of hype, novelty, and uncertainty. Within two weeks, I launched the first version of our Artificial Intelligence LibGuide, shaped by feedback from colleagues leading AI conversations on campus. Its purpose was straightforward: introduce students to the tools, explain their capabilities, and outline key ethical considerations. The guide provided a timely orientation at a moment when curiosity and concern were running high. By the end of 2023, it had nearly 10,000 views; today, it sits at about 30,000 and has been adapted through its CC license by more than 14 campuses across North America. Two years later, the instructional landscape has shifted. In 2025, the question is no longer “What is AI?” but “How do we use it responsibly, critically, and transparently?” The LibGuide has evolved accordingly, moving from surface-level introductions to deeper engagement with the literacies students need to navigate AI as a routine part of academic life.
