is a summary of our findings in scholarly literature.The most helpful articles in navigating through all the literature were systematic or exploratoryreviews, where researchers provide summaries of a multitude of academic articles in AI. Webegin by discussing the broader core conceptual frameworks that were identified. In Ng, et al.’s[11] exploratory review of academic literature on AI, they offer four broad aspects of fosteringAI literacy, based on Bloom’s taxonomy: know and understand, use and apply AI, evaluate andcreate AI, and AI ethics. In a more recent review of the literature, Amatrafi et al [12] similarlyidentified five core constructs in framing AI literacy: recognize (be aware), know andunderstand, use and apply, evaluate, create

and expanded to include a more nuanced understandingof disabilities between the early 1920’s and the passage of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. Thislandmark legislation combined and expanded upon all prior acts of rehabilitative legislation andforms the foundation of the current legal framework [5]. Notably, the Rehabilitation Act of 1973enshrined protection for those with disabilities seeking educational opportunities, guaranteeingotherwise qualified individuals are not excluded from educational opportunities at publiclyfunded institutions [5]. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) was first passedtwo years later in 1975 as the Education for All Handicapped Children Act (EHA) [6]. It wasreauthorized and revised to its

studied [14], [15], [16], [17], butthere are fewer studies focusing on engineering students. In a scoping review, Mercer et al.[9] found that insufficient LIS research has focused on undergraduate engineering students,and what research does exist is piecemeal. The review identified key themes from theresearch to date, including: “Student information behavior mirrors that of professionals;Design thinking as a guiding force for information behavior; Design work requires the use ofspecialized information sources” [9, p. 3]. They also discuss the methods and theoreticalapproaches used in their reviewed papers.Using Mercer et al.’s 2019 review [9] as a starting point, this section will review relevantliterature since 2017, to include papers that may

). Minder’s thesisfocused on how standards are published, indexed, advertised, and distributed. He did not addresshow libraries collect, organize, or use standards.A. S. Tayal of the Indian Standards Institution recommended in 1961 that libraries shouldclassify and catalog standards under the classification system they use for other materials andthat standards should be shelved in three groups: national standards, standards from governmentagencies, and standards from other organizations [29].Methodology and LimitationsThe author’s first task was to compile an inventory of CSA standards published from 1920through 1949. This proved challenging as CSA did not publish a catalog of standards until the1950s. The author reached out to CSA several times and

improved confidence among students in their informationsearching abilities. Other studies have shown similar results, although Han & Schuurmans-Stekhoven [27] note that graduate students also feel that these benefits are diminished if theylack effective composition and communication skills, especially among those who speakEnglish as a second language.The lasting impact of IL instruction on undergraduate students in various academic domainshas also been demonstrated in the literature, particularly in the North American context [9],[16], [28]. One of the earliest examinations is Hardesty et al.’s [29] three-year study ofDepauw University’s undergraduate population. Walters et al.

All of the participants echoed P1’s belief that GenAI use in anacademic setting was situational.Thanks to the interventions in place in this study, the students could persevere andreach new understanding. Consistent with Anderson’s findings [5], studentresearcher persistence provided opportunities for understanding. The interviewsrevealed that the “turning point” was not limited to the assignment's learningobjectives but also created an understanding of GenAI.
