Research repeatedly shows: schools w/ robust library programs have students with higher outcomes across all measures - academic, social, & personal!

If we want to provide NJ students with strong educational foundations, school librarians are essential.

Of the ones here that I have read (gonna work on the rest), I would highly recommend

Algorithms of Oppression

Blood in the Machine

Automating Inequality

as solid starting points

None of these are *explicitly* about AI as we are talking about in 2025, but set the stage really, really well
