Primary Research Group Inc. has published the Survey of Academic Library
Leadership, Impact of ChatGPT & Bard on Information Literacy Instruction,
ISBN 979-8-88517-165-6

This report, based on a survey of 54 academic library directors and similar
officials, looks closely at how academic libraries are teaching patrons
about ChatGPT, Bard & other artificial intelligence applications, and at
how they are integrating use of such programs into their own teaching.  The
study gives specific data on the development of tutorials, LibGuides and
dedicated classes for educating library patrons on the use of ChatGPT,
Bard, AI-enabled Bing and other applications.  The study helps its readers
to answer questions such as: what percentage and what type of college
libraries have developed or are considering the development of courses in
use of artificial intelligence programs?  What percentage have developed
LibGuides?  How high is demand from library patrons for information about
these programs?  How have the programs themselves used ChatGPT for their
own work purposes and productivity enhancement?

Just a few of this 63-page report’s many findings are that:

• Private colleges are more active than public ones in integrating ChatGPT
and other similar applications into their information literacy efforts.

• More than 63% of respondents believe that ChatGPT and other artificial
intelligence programs will have a significant or dramatic impact on
information literacy training.

• 26% of respondents from public colleges in the sample have already
developed a LibGuide on use of ChatGPT.

• Female respondents were much likelier than males to feel that demand for
information about ChatGPT and similar programs was low, very low or
extremely low.
