NISO embarks on two pilot projects: one to improve provenance tracking in AI systems, the other to promote and support adoption of federated access systems.
The latest update to the Best Practice for Generative and Agentic AI usage metrics offers guidance on tracking usage activity generated by third-party AI tools.
From artificial intelligence to emerging protocols, accessibility, metadata, provenance, and discovery, NISO continues to bring information professionals together to share insights and explore practical approaches to common challenges.
This month’s news includes ISO standards for security threats specific to AI, information on Thema (v1.7) from EDItEUR, and a summary of the new EPUB 3.4 standard from the W3C blog.
November features a public webinar on the future of academic libraries (hosted by the Open Discovery Initiative); monthly roundtable discussions cover AI policy and governance and lessons in constructive failure.
Members of the Open Discovery Initiative (ODI) Standing Committee discuss the impact of AI-powered discovery tools and how libraries are adapting to their use.
In the second webinar hosted by the ODI, standing committee members explain how you can identify whether AI is used in a search tool (and why you should care).
Check out the recorded public webinar for an update on the project supporting library collaborations for acquiring, managing, circulating, and preserving collections.
