Hi all!
Thanks for your patience while I thought through the best way to approach this!

I think because there are a number of people I know that are not on this listserv, I wanted to start something separate. I was able to setup a separate listserv here at northwestern. Everyone who showed interest earlier should be getting an email shortly! Hopefully this works for people, can pivot if needed and this doesn’t feel like the right solution.


If you are new here or want to share with others — this is where you can sign up: https://listserv.it.northwestern.edu/scripts/wa.exe?SUBED1=LIBRARY-LLM&A=1

Looking forward to more discussions!
Best,
Mackenzie

Hi Mackenzie, Alison, & David,
Please count me in! I am leading our AI augmentation efforts at Stanford’s Lane medical library, and I’m also looking for a community to share best/emerging practices. (If a community does not yet exist, let’s start one!)

Sincerely,

Vishal Patel, MD, PhD
