• clm-massachusetts-institute-of-technology-disclosure — MIT Libraries advises citing or acknowledging AI contributions in academic papers and consulting the applicable school, class, and publication policies. This is citation guidance, not a universal assessment-use permission or a new university-wide mandatory disclosure rule.
• clm-massachusetts-institute-of-technology-ai-procurement-review — Purchasing new GenAI tools at MIT requires the VPF procurement process. For a tool not on IS&T's list, request an assessment from [email protected] before use or purchase.
• clm-massachusetts-institute-of-technology-accuracy-responsibility — MIT Libraries states that authors are responsible for their work and advises verifying information provided by generative AI. Scope: academic and research writing guidance.
• clm-massachusetts-institute-of-technology-approved-tools-list — IS&T lists MIT-licensed GenAI tools approved for low- and medium-risk information.

Model Cards are recommended when developing or further developing a model; this does not apply to all coursework.
• clm-massachusetts-institute-of-technology-cod-disability-accommodations — Students needing disability accommodations to participate in a COD process are directed to Disability and Access Services. This is a general disciplinary procedure resource, not an AI-specific sanction.
