Artificial intelligence framework

Australian government consultations on safe and responsible Artificial Intelligence (AI) have found that the public expects governments to be exemplars of safe and responsible adoption and use of AI technologies.

The National Library of Australia (Library) is working to leverage these technologies to deliver our mission while retaining our trusted and respected reputation.

Our vision for guiding that work is to legally and responsibly innovate with AI to ethically unlock the national collection, amplifying its discoverability, breadth, accessibility and impact in ways that do not perpetrate or entrench harms. We will use AI to extend the Library's practices to support its statutory role of maintaining, developing and protecting a national collection of library material so Australians can discover, learn and create new knowledge, now and in the future.

This framework sets out how we intend to pursue this work.
