“What do we do about AI?” Although we all wrestle with this question at some level, the need to address the issue of AI in the classroom is particularly acute. AI use for class assignments presents challenges far beyond the typical concerns about plagiarism detection, including issues with pedological, and moral and ethical implications. The faculty at Sacred Heart Seminary and School of Theology reached out to library staff with a multitude of questions: What do I need to know? Is there an AI detector? Do we need a policy addressing AI separate from our plagiarism policy? Should seminarians be permitted to use it? Do I need to change my assignments? These urgent questions and more demanded action. This session will outline the steps taken by the library and seminary faculty to begin to address these questions, starting with a faculty development session and creating a LibGuide of “teaching with AI” resources.
