CE Workshop at Our In-person Meeting 2024
Today’s meeting started with the CE session “Exploring Artifical Intelligence (AI) Literacy in Health Science Libraries” by our guest speaker, Sarah Morris, MS. It was a very engaging and informative session. Sarah has given us permission to share her slide deck. As soon as it is received, it will be posted in the members’ section.
It was so nice to see colleagues in person!
