In the age of AI, how do GLAMIR organisations determine content authenticity and provenance? Collections can be created, modified, described, and reused in new ways, using rapidly developing technologies. In this context, how do we respond and work in a way that maintains public trust in our institutions?
Our first NDF Online Session of 2026 is an exciting collaboration with LIANZA Te Rau Herenga o Aotearoa. We're delighted to welcome our speakers for this session: Kate Murray, Abigail Potter, and Isabel Brador from the Library of Congress.
Kate, Abbey and Isabel will discuss the C2PA for G+LAM Community of Practice, a collaborative group led by the Library of Congress which is exploring content authenticity and provenance issues in the age of AI. The group is actively engaging with standards authors and implementors by defining the needs of the digital preservation community through user stories, developing assertion templates and more.
This presentation will be an overview of current efforts including the recently released white paper, Content Authenticity and Provenance in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: A Call-to-Action for the LAMs Community as well as the ongoing project, Developing Tiered Community Recommendations for Content Authenticity and Provenance.
