The target audiences include researchers, educators, and students from Faculty VII, Economics and Management. The initiative stemmed from a retreat of the departmental heads, where Dr. Franziska Klatt, Head of the Teaching Library, introduced various AI tools. Recognizing that university-wide licenses would not be available in the near term, the faculty decided to advance the introduction of AI licenses as a pilot project and sought the library's support. The contribution will explore the role the library plays in the faculty's AI transformation process and the tasks it undertakes in this context. This involvement strengthens the library's role as a central partner in research and teaching. Researchers and faculty administration highly appreciate this support, as they often lack the time to keep up with the dynamic developments in AI and to facilitate internal exchange within the faculty. This contribution offers valuable insights for the audience by demonstrating how AI tools and AI literacy programs can be implemented at the faculty level, highlighting the library's role in supporting the AI transformation process. It provides a compelling approach for universities that lack campus-wide access to such tools.}, language = {en} }
