I have done other things at #acrl2025 besides haunt the exhibit hall. My highlights so far have been the keynote by Dr. Ruha Benjamin (if you were inspired, read Imagination) and Kevin Sebastian's presentation reevaluating information seeking models in the context of "AI-mediated research."

Best #acrl2025 swag: Pick up a knitting project pouch (or pencil pouch or whatever) at JSTOR and the coolest stickers at Springshare, and then hit the APA booth to answer trivia questions to win a tumbler. Yes, I came to learn. But free shit? Also cool.

The best way to attack a big exhibit hall is to hit 2-4 aisles per day and embrace delusions about the number of ARCS that will fit in your suitcase. #acrl2025
