Just delivered a talk on the autistic experience in academic libraries to 120+ attendees! The feedback has been incredible, with many recognising autistic traits in themselves and others. Thank you to everyone who attended, it was a fantastic time! #Neurodiversity #AutismAwareness #Inclusion

I was lucky enough to receive this award last year, and it was such an incredible experience! It was my first conference and everyone was so kind and welcoming. If you're thinking about applying, this is your sign to go for it!

I'm not sure how this happened, but apparently 200 people want to hear me chat about my diss! Thank you to everyone who has got a ticket and is coming along, it makes my heart happy to see so many people interested in my autistic librarian experiences.

There are only 20 (out of 200!) tickets left for my free talk with NLISN on the 20th January! This is a really exciting opportunity to learn more about the autistic experience of working in an academic library (/working): what could impact learning and how to facilitate learning.

Very exciting times coming up! I'm going to be presenting my dissertation with NLISN on January 20th- book your place now. I combine info literacy and autism in this project that gave autistic librarians a chance to voice their realities of the workplace. @nlisn.bsky.social
