Ideas for sessions

• all sessions should recognize the gravity of our current situation
• risk-taking (strategic)
• labor relations and libraries/organizing 101
• fighting/preparing for coming austerity
• what do our services look like now
• privacy and online learning/teaching/working environments
• self-advocacy
• broadband access
• how did librarians come to oppose the USA PATRIOT Act? and what happened after? more library history
• social justice library history with Elaine, Tom, Al, Jenna, etc
• disinformation and the election (Bernie media blackout and what this means)
• every session should have a call to action and a way of following up with participants
• thinking big, incorporating big demands into small actions
