Please join us for another great LILi (Lifelong Information Literacy) Show & Tell, on using AI tools Perplexity.ai and NotebookLM. The session will take place online Wednesday, January 28, at 1:00 PM CDT. The presenter is Stephanie Garrett.
This presentation will explore how two powerful AI tools, Perplexity.ai and NotebookLM, can enhance the work of librarians, instructors, and students. We’ll begin by examining Perplexity.ai, an AI trained on academic sources, and discuss effective prompting strategies that help research and reference librarians expand their access to high-quality, subject-specific materials from both open and academic web sources. Then, we’ll turn to NotebookLM, a free tool for personal and academic use, focusing on how instructors can use it to increase student engagement with sources and leverage multiple modalities to improve learning outcomes. Together, these tools demonstrate how AI can support both academic research and student success.
No registration is required. Please join the meeting here. A recording will also be available on the LILi Show & Tell webpage after the session.
