Thanks for sharing, I've been planning to write about this next week as a follow up to my post about student loans last year. acrlog.org/2025/07/24/o... It’s wild that we've heard so little about this!! 📚

Here are my top 10 dog and news reporter interactions!

I’ve been writing again on my experience learning to create Bloomberg Query Language formulas (in which I continue to have breakthroughs!). And on supporting students with this. In my new blog post I also go on a bit on why I haven’t just used generative AI to create formulas for me :) #AliceWrites

Working (gradually) on #SystematicReview write-up, and feeling glad I have all the searches for early on (where I tested words and proximities) saved in EBSCO. And that I went through the rigamarole of putting them in the right place to transfer to the new platform.
An interesting proposal but if institutions still won't address abuse or harassment meaningfully and instead go the "you resign before we have to put you in the database" route....

Hallucinated citations are polluting the scientific literature. What can be done?
Tens of thousands of publications from 2025 might include invalid references generated by AI, a Nature analysis suggests. #medlibs www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Scientists invented a fake disease. AI told people it was real
Bixonimania doesn’t exist except in a clutch of obviously bogus academic papers. So why did AI chatbots warn people about this fictional illness? #medlibs h/t @pfanderson.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/d41...

"Even students who use AI in limited, deliberate ways describe a low-grade unease, not only about whether they are learning what they are supposed to learn, but about what repeated reliance on these tools might do to their thinking over time." www.chronicle.com/article/when...

I can't stop thinking about writers using AI to write and readers using AI to summarize that writing. People's willingness to cede their capacity for thought to machines is baffling and alarming.

Every time the government makes a change to a survey or a form — or introduces a new survey or form — you have the right to weigh in on that decision. If you want to tell the government what you think about the changes they are making, follow these steps: dataindex.us/datawatch
All my library holds came in at once so now I have to quit my job to read.

‘Hey’ came before ‘hi,’ and ‘hi' came before ‘hello.’
‘Hi’ is most likely a variant of ‘hey.’
‘Hello’ is not related to either.
Goodbye.
The historic Ladies Library building in Ypsilanti, Michigan — a two-story red brick Victorian structure with arched windows and a decorative roofline, photographed in early spring with bare trees surrounding it.
Three Ypsilanti women started a library in 1868 with 175 books. We've added a few since then. 🙂
Eunice Watling, Gloria Follett, and Sarah Pardee founded the Ladies Library Association of Ypsilanti, and what began as a small reading room eventually became the library you know today.
We also want to emphasize that Signal Support will *never* initiate contact via in-app messages, SMS, or social media to ask for your verification code or PIN. If anyone asks for any Signal related code, it is a scam. We make this clear when users receive their SMS code during initial signup. 5/7
I was unable to find any articles with that title and all the records I could find with any journal name of "nursing spectrum" were all much older than these citations.
