Thank you so much to everyone at ALA that came to my first ever panel, and making it such a great success!! I'm really happy with the number of people that came by and was engaged throughout the entire panel. I'm so glad that I did this, and I can't wait to do another!

Okay, my presentation for ALA is done! I've gone through and edited the script for it as well! But I have a quick question for people on here: would you rather have a panel where 90% of the time is a deeper dive into the topic with 10% time for Q&A, or 50% is the presentation and 50% is Q&A?
