• Sustainability and Preservation with Omeka (Sharon Leon, Digital Scholar) 
• Under Pressure: Highlights from the 2025 Library Deans and Directors Survey (Tracy Bergstrom and Ellen Carroll, Ithaka S+R) 
• Using Conversational AI to Support Federated Certificate Administration in Higher Education (Chaitanya Gunupudi, University of Maryland)
