NotebookLM is now available to all education users

What’s changing
We are expanding support for the NotebookLM for Google Workspace for Education users of all ages.

NotebookLM is covered under the Google Workspace for Education Terms of Service for all Workspace for Education users. Those terms include enterprise-grade data protections, so your data is not reviewed by anyone or otherwise used to train AI models.

Who’s impacted
Admins and end users

Why you’d use it
NotebookLM is an AI-powered thinking partner that helps you understand anything. It accelerates learning and knowledge sharing, with AI grounded on the documents that matters most to you. Educators and students can add their lesson plans, education standards, lecture notes and/or course readings to get real-time summaries, guided lesson plans, discussion questions, quizzes and more. They can also generate audio overviews to take learning on the go and make content more accessible, digestible and engaging.

Additional details
NotebookLM is available in 180+ regions where Gemini API is available and currently supports 35+ languages. Users can only upload sources from Workspace that they have permission to access. Furthermore, they can control who has access to their notebooks and set more granular permissions within each. Notebooks can only be shared within your organization.

NotebookLM also supports compliance with industry regulations like FERPA and COPPA.
