Description
In the context of school libraries and artificial intelligence, achieving equitable access to devices, connectivity, and digital resources becomes imperative. Bridging the digital divide not only enhances access but also enables students to develop essential learning skills. These skills encompass critical evaluation of information, discernment of reliable sources, and responsible navigation of the vast online landscape. Together, these elements form a cohesive approach to the integration of AI in education and its broader impact on students and libraries.
