Hi Everyone, As promised, I have the initial topics of discussion for the next few months. Please feel free to add to these different discussions and suggest others. July Topic (AI Agents) How is your library developing/contributing to AI Agents on Campus? What tools are you examining at your University for AI Agents? What type of agents might be helpful in your campus? Some literature/articles regarding this topic. Note one is from a product; I am not endorsing the product, rather the blog was interesting. Also listed a whitepaper that generated some recent discussion. https://www.forbes.com/sites/avivalegatt/2025/06/16/ai-agents-are-set-to-tra... https://www.insidehighered.com/opinion/columns/online-trending-now/2024/11/0... https://digitaleducation.stanford.edu/book-series/2025/future-of-learning https://element451.com/blog/ai-agents-in-us-higher-education https://www.kaggle.com/whitepaper-agents Future topics: August Topic (Student Utilization of AI) How are students utilizing AI on your campus?
