Academic librarians are increasingly tasked with creating and implementing new policies and ethical guidelines surrounding generative AI’s role in research and publishing practices. They are called through vocational language to educate on safe, transparent, and responsible use of AI. These new roles and responsibilities are coupled with insufficient time and general support, resulting in faculty and staff feeling fatigued.
