Library guide on how to declare the use of AI in academic work
A library guide published in May 2025 proposes structures for making the use of AI tools transparent: which tools were used, for what purpose and to what extent. A related journal policy states that authorship cannot be attributed to AI, that its use is confined to improving language or readability, that it must be cited, and that authors remain responsible for the validity of what it generates.

authors cannot attribute authorship to AI; AI (or assisted technologies) may only be used to improve language or readability
The journal rule turns a general disclosure principle into an enforceable publication condition, which is what raises this record above advisory guidance.
