The whole ALA conference weekend was a great reminder of what a wonderful community we have to tackle the most daunting challenges ahead. Many thanks to everyone who made time for me (and special shoutouts to those currently on Bluesky, @ibizoboi.bsky.social and @yeseniadraws.bsky.social)! #alaac25

Libraries are a lifeline. In a time where they are often under attack, we must do our part to support these vital institutions.
I'm thrilled to announce I will be presenting with Vicki at #ALAAC25 showcasing the importance of gaming with a disability at the largest library conference in the world.

While masking numbers are low (as is expected sadly) it has been great "seeing" and hearing from folks at #ALAAC25 who are masking, offering masks, and seeing others in them <3

My local library system is rural & has 48 libraries. I also have a card at the next library system over (also rural) with 42 libraries. I saw zero tweets about any staff of any of the libraries attending #ALAAC25. There's a massive gap in who attends vs who needs the opportunities the most.

Really curious if anyone from my local library system, or the surrounding ones, was able to attend #ALAAC25? STLS? OWWL? FLLS? These are in Central and Western NY State, btw.

This has actually been a really nice chosen-to-be left behind #ALAAC25. I wasn't expecting to see many masked folk on here, and the % is still low, but I did see quite a few folks in their wonderful masks, authors, staff members, and attendees!

Lots of people commenting on poverty and access don't actually live in poor communities, but we have/do. It has always been bad, but shout out to everyone doing outreach and mask blocs and just doing what they can to fill those holes - including those at #ALAAC25 wearing and sharing(new) masks :)
