Abstract
This presentation examines how generative AI can enhance the library research process by providing more efficient tools and strategies. Topics covered include selecting AI tools suited for research tasks, crafting effective prompts to produce high-quality results, and integrating AI into existing research workflows. The session also highlights best practices for verifying and fact-checking AI-generated content, citing AI tools responsibly, and using AI to assist with citation management. Designed to offer practical guidance, the presentation equips participants with actionable methods for leveraging generative AI in academic research. This presentation was delivered in six separate Zoom sessions for members of the Boston University community during Spring 2025, on March 18, March 20, March 31, April 3, April 14, and April 17. The same content was presented at each session. The slides from the April 17 session are included here for reference.
