I hope everyone enjoyed the dinner at iConference 2026 last night. My only disappointment is I forgot to change into my heels for photos!! Darn!
Thanks for making it happen, @edinburghnapier.bsky.social conference and catering team!

screenshot: Workshop 663: Toward accessible information theories: Crowdsourcing plain language descriptions This intellectually engaging and creative workshop focuses on making information science theories more accessible for students and research participants. Come learn about our research project where we developed plain language descriptions of twelve classic information behaviour theories. We will discuss the challenges of making theory accessible to non-research audiences, nd you wil try your hand at creating plain language descriptions of theories through a crowdsourcing exercise with fellow workshop attendees. If you want to geek out about theory, have fun with other conference attendees, and come away with some useful ideas for your research and teaching, this workshop is for you!
excited for this morning's #iConf26 iConference workshop!
I hope everyone is enjoying the 2026 iconference so far! The conference dinner is at the same venue this evening and the events team is already getting ready!!

forgot my hashtags! #iConf26 ; #iConference
If you're on here let's use #iConf26! I don't know what the official conference hashtags over on the Nazi site are, and idk about your countries but it's illegal in Canada to use a website containing CSAM so I won't be checking it!
@francesryanphd.bsky.social is using #iConf26 #iConf2026 and I'm gonna use the first one!
Today's the day!
I hope you're ready to contribute to critical conversations around information literacies, authenticity, and the use of digital technologies in shaping a more enlightened and inclusive digital society.
Welcome to the iConference at @edinburghnapier.bsky.social

The on-site iConference programme starts tomorrow. Everything is ready, so today, we rest. Well, I'm going geocaching whilst Tiger picks colours for my next project. π
Safe travels to everyone making their way to Edinburgh and @edinburghnapier.bsky.social.
See you tomorrow!

Tiger is looking forward to the on-site iConference programme starting in just two days. (And he's not even going!)
Today, I'm getting materials ready. Tomorrow, I'll "rest". And Sunday, I'll be at @edinburghnapier.bsky.social to welcome and register delegates.
See you soon!

Work is full-on at the moment, which means the bus journey from my office to Castle Ryan (home) is spent working.
Which, whilst not as relaxing as my normal practice of daydreaming, really makes the journey go quickly. I nearly missed my stop! π²
#iConf26 is nearly here. Let's go!
