How are Tufts students learning about generative AI—and what support would help?

Tufts University Libraries invite Tufts students from all programs for a one-hour Zoom focus group about students' experiences, questions, and needs related to generative AI tools.

No specific level of expertise is required, and we welcome students who both use or don't use AI!

✨Day 2 ✨of Library Student Worker Appreciation Week! 🤩

Learn more about the work that students do at the Lilly Music Library, as well as in Metadata Services and the Director's Office. 🎶🎧🧑🏽‍💻🪑 Lilly Music Library: 19 Student Workers, 11 graduating students. ABOUT: Our students are the face - and the heart - of the music library! They open, close, and staff the front desk during all open hours. They help find materials in JumboSearch and on the shelves, reshelve all materials, process requests, maintain the stacks, and work on projects during each shift, which include shelf-reading and inventory of our collection, organizing music department concert program data, coordinating our concert series Live @ Lilly, and contributing to a music indexing project to help make music by underrepresented composers more discoverable.
