Just settling in for #CALC25. I think so far we've agreed that next year's conference should be in Panama, and @patchedelbows.bsky.social is going to sort funding and bursaries for everyone. Looking forward! 😆

Accessibility and #CriticalLibrarianship (should) go hand in hand, so here are the two things that made this conference accessible for me:
1. 100% online
2. Registration for only GBP £15.00
Thank you, #CALC25 organizers!
