Geekspotting 2.0

10:00 AM - 11:00 AM

Event Details

Diversity has been a major issue in pop culture lately.  The demand to include traditionally marginalized voices in comics, movies, TV, and gaming has led to an explosion of material in the past few years.  Join two fellow librarians (who also happen to be geeks) as they explore this issue and help you navigate all the content available with collection development recommendations that can work in your local library. 

Presenters:  Alex Sarkissian (Allen County Public Library), Jocelyn Lewis (Indiana State Library)

Note:  The speakers will be presenting on this topic live at the Indiana Library Federation’s Annual Conference on November 14.
