Registration is open for the MLA webinar “Leveraging AI Tools to Summarize Research Articles”. It will take place on Tuesday, November 11, from 1:00 to 2:30 PM CDT. Please see below for more information, including the link to registration.
This 90-minute webinar explores the growing role of artificial intelligence in streamlining the research process, with a focus on using AI tools designed to summarize scholarly articles. As AI continues to transform how researchers discover, analyze, and synthesize information, understanding how to effectively integrate these tools into research workflows is essential. Participants will gain insights into a range of AI summarization tools, their practical applications, and the challenges and ethical considerations associated with their use—particularly in the context of evidence synthesis projects.
By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
- Identify characteristics and functions of AI tools used for summarizing research articles
- Compare the benefits and limitations of AI summarization tools in the context of academic research workflows.
- Demonstrate how to use AI tools to generate summaries from full-text research articles.
- Evaluate the accuracy and appropriateness of AI-generated summaries for use in evidence synthesis projects.
- Integrate AI summarization tools into existing research support services and instructional strategies for library patrons.
