Pilot project conditions:

  • Free access, no budget needed
  • Hand out access codes: patrons are online within minutes
  • Zero IT integration
  • Participate in a setup call, a checkin call, and a post-pilot interview for a case study / white paper

Why now?

  • Patrons are using ChatGPT anyway; the library can lead or be invisible
  • "What's our AI policy?" needs a better answer than a PDF nobody reads
  • AI literacy is the new digital literacy, and libraries should be teaching it

Patrons get:

  • AI chat on library PCs or their own devices: no apps, no accounts
  • Customizable branding, welcome message, safety policies, etc.
  • Three-layer content moderation overseeing every conversation
  • Top-notch privacy protections
  • A built-in coach that teaches good AI habits as they go
  • Blocked queries redirect to a librarian, not an error screen

Libraries get:

  • Admin dashboard with anonymized usage stats
  • One-click report generation for board / management reporting
  • A trustworthy partner for AI safety and literacy training resources
  • No access to individual patron conversations, ever!
