The public is increasingly turning to generative AI (GenAI) tools for answers to legal questions. While these tools provide fast access to information, their use involves risks and can make it difficult to distinguish credible legal information from misinformation.

What role can libraries play? Learn how information professionals can support safer and more informed use of GenAI for legal information. Drawing on the Saskatchewan Access to Legal Information (SALI) initiative’s newest resource, the Using GenAI Tools to Obtain Legal Information guide, participants will learn practical strategies to help patrons navigate the use of GenAI tools to obtain legal information effectively.

Designed for library professionals in any type of library, this session offers practical tools to address emerging information literacy challenges in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
