First event of the fall semester! Join us for a Town Hall with Dr. Copeland regarding the use of AI in LIS Courses.

This is your chance to voice concerns, ask questions, and discuss AI as part of your studies.

When: Tuesday, August 19 at 7:30pm EST
Where: via Zoom. RSVP for the event through The Spot: https://thespot.indianapolis.iu.edu/event/11390520 (You must be logged in with your IU Credentials to access).
