Artificial Intelligence (AI) Statement

Authors are responsible for ensuring the originality and integrity of their submissions. Generative AI tools, such as large language models and multimodal models, do not meet Information Literacy Collab standards for accuracy, privacy, or proper attribution, and as such must not be listed as an author of a submission and must not be used to generate written content for submissions. Additionally, the use of generative AI for creating or editing images, charts, tables, data, or figures is completely prohibited.

Generative AI may be used as an aide at the initial stage of writing in the following use cases:

• Idea exploration
• Idea generation
• Translation assistance

Authors must disclose the use of any generative AI tools in an AI Disclosure Statement. This statement must include detailed descriptions of the tools used (including the version number), how it was used, and the purpose of use. The AI Disclosure Statement should be included on the final page of the submission.

Authors who did not use any generative AI in the development of their submissions must still complete an AI Disclosure Statement attesting to this.

The Information Literacy Collab retains the right to reject any submissions suspected to be in violation of this policy.

Editorial Board AI Use Policy

Generative AI tools will never be used in any step of the selection, review, editing, or publication processes. Basic spellcheck and grammar editing tools such as Grammarly may be used at the editors’ discretion.
