An EXTRA big thank you to Andrew and Colin for setting the stage and demonstrating the topics, to Lindsey for running the discussion portion so smoothly, and to Thom and Allan for engaging the chat. And I saw Nathan and Cassie and Margaret sharing insights and adding to discussions as well! ? I?ve uploaded a screenshot of the initial poll results to the webinar folder in our Google drive. I?ve also uploaded a text copy of the session Chat just for us in case we want to follow up on anything mentioned therein. (I turned on Closed Captioning for accessibility purposes but did decline someone?s repeated requests to allow Otter AI to record the session for note taking or some such thing.) Andrew and Colin, if you upload any slides you feel comfortable sharing in that folder linked above, I will post them on the CARLI event page and can send a link to that to registrants sometime soon.

During the meeting, I promised to start a list of "Primo VE takeaways" that we can post, which is available here. Feel free to make any edits or additions you'd like. I kept the language noncommittal (perhaps an overuse of the word "may") but am happy to use stronger language if we feel it is appropriate. The goal is to have this ready by December 4th so please review as you have time. At our next meeting, we will want to develop more concrete plans for our AI Symposium session. I think we agreed that a session on an evaluative framework for AI tools would be a useful contribution, but we can continue discussing in December. Please come with your ideas and consider whether you would like to present. We will need to have our presenters and abstract finalized by mid-January. Allan confirmed he would be able to meet on the 4th Wednesday of the month for meetings next semester. If no one has any conflicts, we will move to that schedule in January. Our meeting dates would then be: January 22 February 26 March 26 April 16 (note that this is still the 3rd Wednesday due to a CARLI conflict) May 28 June 25 Please place holds in your calendars for now - we will confirm this change at our December meeting. Thanks for all your work and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
