Shout-out for Alison Edwards, Alexis Boone, Aasta Thomas

Alison Edwards, Alexis Boone, Aasta Thomas

Alison, Aasta, and Alexis are a team more reliable and resourceful than AAA.

Without Alison's superior planning skills and creative ideas, the AccessFest 2025 collaboration may not have even happened. Alison's skills at fostering partnerships with other campus stakeholders like DELTA has helped the Libraries to play an important role in supporting accessibility campus-wide.

On the day of the event, Aasta and Alexis were so welcoming and helpful to all the faculty and staff looking for accessibility help with their instructional materials. Aasta has been working hard to advocate for accessible instruction since she started with the Libraries and it was so nice to have her wonderful attitude and expertise at the event. Alexis is also proving herself to be a great addition to the team (and she is fast enough to keep up Ms. Wuf!)

Thanks LSS for being accessibility advocates in the libraries and beyond!
