Dear all,

Are you curious about AI, or do you want to connect with a community of folk using and researching AI in libraries, archives, and museums? 

The AI4LAM Online Community Call on January 16 might be just what you need at 16 UTC (find your local time here, zoom link in GoogleDoc)

It will be an onboarding session open to newcomers, people in GLAMs who are just engaging in AI projects, or those who would like to do so. If you have AI-related questions you never dared to ask, if you need a hint to start your own AI experimentation, or if you just want a chance to discuss with other interested people, please come join us!

Emmanuelle Bermès (École nationale des chartes - PSL)  will lead us through the session, which will include an introduction to AI and why it matters to libraries, archives and museums (AI4LAM 101), followed by a clinic with breakout spaces for questions and discussions
