Generative artificial intelligence is almost everywhere we look, and researchers are considering its role and impact in a wide variety of fields. Several international, state, and local organizations provide policy and regulation repositories worth knowing about. Danielle Gensch, State, Local, and International Government Librarian at Stanford University Libraries will provide a brief tour of OECD, NCSL, NLC, and other helpful tools in the government information librarian’s kit. She will focus on key topics like data centers, energy, sustainability, and intellectual property. Please feel free to bring your own examples, particularly for federal resources, generally outside the scope of Danielle’s work and her slides.
