Laboratory CourseAbstractIn the fall of 2025, Mechanical Engineering and Library faculty at California State University,Maritime Academy will develop and pilot Artificial Intelligence (AI) literacy learning outcomeswithin Mechanical Engineering and Physics courses. The university currently does not haveinstitution-wide AI literacy learning outcomes or systematic support for AI instruction. Inpreparation, the faculty will collaborate to create an AI literacy framework for courses in whichstudents carry out quantitative experimentation. Instructional and assessment materials designedto teach students about the uses, ethical implications, and limitations of AI throughout thetechnical paper writing process will be created. Students will practice and

students reportedhaving a disability [30]. This data shows that disability is prevalent in all populations, includinghigher education.Barriers experienced by disabled STEM studentsIn post-secondary educational settings, many disabled students experience barriers thatnegatively impact their academic experience and prevent them from fully accessing educationalspaces, materials, and opportunities [31]. Some of these barriers include: biased anddiscriminatory attitudes of faculty and staff, inaccessible spaces, uncomfortable physicalconditions in learning spaces such as laboratories, exclusion from social and academic groups,lower levels of financial support than non-disabled STEM students, and fewer mentorshipoptions [3], [32], [33].Additionally

theCanadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB) and the Accreditation Board for Engineeringand Technology (ABET) require standards and codes to be included in the engineeringcurriculum [3, 4]. Engineering librarians have been teaching students to use standards at leastsince the 1980s, and probably earlier [5]. Consequently, academic libraries that supportengineering programs have been collecting standards for decades.PurposeThe inspiration for this paper was the author’s discovery in 2022 of a large cache of early (pre-1950) Canadian national standards in a library storage facility. The standards were developed bythe Canadian Engineering Standards Association (CESA), Canada’s first national standardsdevelopment organization (SDO). CESA changed its
