AI & Research: AI-Assisted Literature Searching

Scheduled
Promotional graphic for Texas Libraries’ “AI & Research: Literature Searching” workshop. The design features an orange gradient background with the event title in large white text. Green panels display event details with calendar, clock, and location icons: Monday, Nov. 2; 12–1 p.m.; and online. The Texas Libraries logo appears at the bottom.

Over the past few years, many AI tools have emerged that present themselves as an alternative to the traditional literature search. How effective are these tools? Do these tools completely replace database searching? What are their limitations? 

During this one-hour virtual session, we will compare and contrast database methods of literature searching with new AI-assisted methods.

Instructors:

  • Meryl Brodsky (Liaison Librarian for Communication)
  • Grant Hardaway (Liaison Librarian for Psychology & Life Sciences)
  • Anna McGilvray (Liaison Librarian for Physical & Computational Sciences)
