AI4LAM is an international, participatory community focused on advancing the use of artificial intelligence in, for and by libraries, archives and museums.
Community call: 12 December 2023
We will return to our Community Calls a week earlier than usual, with December's call taking place on 12 December 2023 to avoid clashing with the holidays.
The AI4LAM co-chairs, Neil Fitzgerald (British Library) and Emmanuelle Bermès (École nationale des chartes - PSL), will be leading us through the year in review, so do come along for what is sure to be an interesting reflection. Agenda can be found here.
