Launch and Development of Choice’s LibTech Insights

The Authority File

This month’s two-part series features Daniel Pfeiffer, the social sciences editor and LibTech Insights (LTI) editor at Choice. Joining TAF host Bill Mickey, Daniel chats about the evolution of Choice’s library technology blog LTI and general trends in the artificial intelligence space.

In this first episode, our guest shares how LTI has grown to encompass webinars, reading lists, tutorials, job profiles, and more since its launch in January 2023. In addition, Bill and Daniel reflect on how the release of ChatGPT impacted LTI’s content as librarians and higher education stakeholders searched for guidance on predictive technology and AI. Underscoring the need for day-to-day use cases and practical tips readers can apply at their own institutions, they discuss relevant library tech topics beyond AI, popular posts with LTI readers, and a possible plateau in AI technology developments.
