Machine Learning Fundamentals for Librarians

Machine learning is now part of all of our work. It is prudent that we all have a foundational understanding of their creation, the related ethical issues, and best practices for investigating machine learning applications. One need only critical thought and curiosity to join this program where we will cover each of these topics and apply them together on machine learning applications. This presentation will serve as an accessible introduction to the topic with a safe space to explore real-world applications.

Target Audience:

Any librarians that want a foundational understanding of machine learning so as to better engage with vendors, teach students, or participate in ml teams.
