Prix fixe meals don't work for everyone. Usually, it's essential to be able to customize experiences. #BrainFriendly #id24

And sometimes I do just want to look in and not interact, but get clues about whether it's a good place for me. #id24 #BrainFriendly

What makes me feel welcome? Not being ignored, but not overwhelmed with attention.

Andrea Jamison points out that if you say diversity is a core value, but only mention infrequently, the message is not clear. Include everywhere, as part of all work and policies and websites, etc. Normalize. #OrbisCascadeSM2021 @achitownj

Joined a conference yoga break, and the cat decided to jump on my lap and insist on curling up there. #Zoomconferencechallenges #coreforum2020

DaVonne Rooney mentioned falling back on retail management experience once COVID hit. IMHO - everyone should have the experience of working retail or being wait staff. #coreforum2020 #empathy

Attending a session on managing change when you are the change in management. I've moved from being Pub Lib management to NOT being management, in an academic lib, but still want to help lead. Wrapping my brain around that. #coreforum2020

Sofia Leung says LIS is "clearly not a community of consent" (vis a vis including information in our collections that was stolen from cultures without their consent) #coreforum2020

[M Alexander @libtechlady]

@ranti Thank you!

[M Alexander @libtechlady]

I'm "attending" the CORE Forum - turns out I haven't been on Twitter since 2017, apparently, when I was asking Internet Librarian folks about dinner plans... :-( #coreforum2020

My son wants to know if you've tried bacon dipped in maple syrup. Also...bacon-topped maple bars! #AltonBrownLive #voodoodonuts

[M Alexander @libtechlady]

Dinner plans, anyone? #internetlibrarian

[M Alexander @libtechlady]

We all want a sustainable, engaged population...so why aren't we sharing more data to support that vision? #internetlibrarian
