The white paper is this (published in August)
Hervieux, S. & Wheatley, A. (2024). AI Literacy framework: Perspectives from Instruction Librarians and Current Information Literacy Tools https://www.choice360.org/research/white-paper-building-an-ai-literacy-framework-perspectives-from-instruction-librarians-and-current-information-literacy-tools/?utm_source=ACRLShare&utm_medium=newsletter&utm_campaign=LTI+WhitePaper+Sept2024
"With the intent to help gain a better understanding of the place of AI literacy in information literacy instruction at academic libraries, Choice and its technology content channel, LibTech Insights, with generous underwriting by Taylor and Francis, have created the White Paper ... This white paper reports on interviews with instruction librarians about AI literacy. From the analysis of the interviews, we will identify the main themes and concerns related to AI for academic libraries and develop a robust framework for AI literacy."
