Artificial Intelligence and Library Skills

Appropriate student use

Follow the guidance of your module leaders and academics about whether it is appropriate to use ChatGPT or other generative AI within any particular given assignment. If you are allowed to use generative AI within an assignment, ensure that you properly acknowledge the use of this technology within your writing, as per the guidance provided by your academics and found within your module handbook.

Any attempt to pass off work created by AI as your own constitutes academic misconduct within our current Academic Misconduct Policy.

Some technologies allow you to summarise large pieces of text or information. Depending on the tool, you can either ask it to summarise the text or click a summarise button. When using independent Gen-AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT, ClaudeAI, etc.), approach inputting large pieces of text with caution ensuring you are not infringing copyright or have permission from the content author.
