Super Searchers for Library Workers (Public Library Association)
Tuesday, September 19, 2023
The ease with which misinformation can be created and spread online endangers everyday discourse—and
libraries are uniquely suited to help counteract its negative effects. Using research developed at University of Washington, Google has created a new set of tools for evaluating material found online, making it easier to think critically about the veracity of digital information right at the point of search. In this interactive presentation, library consultant Toby Greenwalt will demonstrate the capabilities of Super Searchers and showcase potential applications in the library workspace.
