SUMMARY:Provenance and Citation UX in GenAI Systems
DESCRIPTION:With the growing role of agentic AI in the discovery and delivery of content\, we find ourselves in a shift from human to computer readership. In this new environment\, how can we embed provenance and attribution into AI systems? Without attribution and citation in outputs\, how can we track usage? The session will also explore what is needed from the AI development community and how the content exchange process can support provenance tracking.

SUMMARY:Let's Set the Scholarly Record Straight: Using Trust Markers\, CREC\, and More to Support Research Integrity
DESCRIPTION:Retractions\, whatever their cause\, have long been a concern in scholarly communications. The adoption and evolution of AI technologies have made this problem even more urgent\, driving growth in the number of fraudulent papers. At the same time\, misinformation has led many to distrust science. In this session\, speakers and participants will explore how to address retractions and removals\, as well as how systems are developing to signal to users that an article or piece of research has met certain criteria and may be trusted.

SUMMARY:AI \, Transparency\, and Disclosure: Implementing Policies and Measuring Their Success
DESCRIPTION:With the implementation of AI tools to support writing and editorial processes well underway\, the need for policies around transparency and disclosure of AI use has grown. In response\, many institutions have developed AI policies for students\, researchers\, and staff\, while publishers are increasingly demanding disclosure of AI usage. What goes into an ethical\, transparent disclosure policy? What approaches are being used to enforce such policies? After implementation are there ways we can measure their success? Society publishers\, librarians\, and technology providers will share their experiences and explore where advances need to be made.

SUMMARY:Getting Moving on Federated Identity in Libraries
DESCRIPTION:Federated identity\, which can provide a privacy-protecting method to accessing scholarly information\, has been long available for libraries from most publishers\, yet adoption across the community has been slow. What’s holding us back\, and how can we move forward? Participants will be invited to share their experiences and how a pilot project to simplify the process could chart a path forward.

SUMMARY:Managing AI Access to Content\, or Keeping the Robots in Line: The Sequel
DESCRIPTION:Agentic AI offers new opportunities for publishers licensing content and for researchers engaged in text or data mining across a collection or corpus. Access to that content\, however\, also poses challenges for publishers and platforms who want to allow access to those entitled to it\, whether through a subscription or license\, while keeping out unwanted agents. Agentic AI also complicates how we measure the value and impact of scholarly content. What is the best approach to managing AI access to content? And how should we take AI activity into account when measuring usage?&nbsp\;

SUMMARY:The Next Chapter for CCLIP: From Recommended Practice to Reality
DESCRIPTION:The Collaborative Collections Lifecycle Infrastructure Project (CCLIP) Recommended Practice was published this spring. After several years of working to document and offer guidance on how to effectively collaborate\, we must now move on to implementation. Building upon the Recommended Practice\, several projects are working to build tools and models for inter-library collaboration. Join us to learn more about the CCLIP and to explore how a collaborative approach to collections management can make libraries more efficient and effective .

SUMMARY:Accessible Content at Scale: AI Tools and Community Responses
DESCRIPTION:Making content accessible to everyone regardless of their abilities is a moral imperative\, but it can also be a perennial challenge for some organizations. Regulatory demands for accessible content are forcing publishers and institutions to rapidly adapt. WIth expectations changing and requirements expanding\, content providers are using a variety of tools\, including AI tools\, to support accessibility applications. This session will explore how the community is responding and what tools are proving most useful.

SUMMARY:The Evolving World of Recognition and Assessment
DESCRIPTION:Since the advent of digital research distribution\, we have been challenged to capture and quantify the new ways to measure impact. &nbsp\;From measuring downloads to capturing the variety of ways that resaerchers can partcipate in reearch projects\, our methods of assessment have constantly been evolving. This session will explore the changes and the needs for adatpations in how we track contributions\, usage\, and other metrics.

SUMMARY:Copyright at the Frontier: Licensing in the Age of AI
DESCRIPTION:Copyright is a fundamental pillar of content distribution\, whether the content is open access or subscription-based. Technology companies are pushing the boundaries of fair use as they train their AI models on published works. Significant legal challenges are open and pending across the world as publishers and authors react. Regulators and policy makers are scambling to define the guardrails of what is copyrightable and set other legal ground rules. Licenses must now define what is allowable and what is not in a world in which seemingly everyone is using AI tools. This session will explore the issues and how our community might adapt to this changing environment.

SUMMARY:Describing Things That Are Important—with AI-Ready Metadata
DESCRIPTION:For every type of content\, there is an equally important metadata structure to describe\, discover\, and exchange that content. Maintaining these models over time is a critical part of the standards process—and AI is now driving some of the most significant changes yet. This session will explore what updates are needed to the basic metadata models that make research content findable\, accessible\, and reusable\, as adoption of AI technologies reshapes how that content is described\, discovered\, and used.
