Librarians' <scp>AI</scp> Literacy

Abstract

ABSTRACT Generative Artificial intelligence (GenAI) chatbots, e.g., ChatGPT, are emerging and gradually becoming pivotal tools in various domains, including libraries. Accordingly, AI literacy definitions, skills, and measures are developed. This research aims to delve into the various factors that are associated with librarians' AI literacy. The study measures included the AI literacy Scale and four sub‐scales of AI Device Usage Acceptance (AIDUA): social influence , hedonic motivation , willingness to accept AI usage, and positive emotions toward AI. 107 librarians answered an online questionnaire. Findings reveal that librarians with high AI technology acceptance, which includes social influence, hedonic motivation, willingness to use AI, and positive emotions towards AI, tend to have higher AI literacy, suggesting that these factors can be utilized to promote librarians' AI literacy.
