...Now What?Art and Design Research in the Wake of a Pandemic is a virtual unconference intended to provide library workers in the art and design field with a space to share experiences of shifting models of service after more than a year of remote or semi-remote work.

Times: 6:30am - 2:00pm PST / 8:30am - 4:00pm CST / 9:30am - 5:00pm EST
This unconference opens with a panel discussion at 8:15-9:15 AM PST / 10:15-11:15 AM CST / 11:15 AM-12:15 PM EST to share what we learned about art and design research in 2020 and 2021: the good, the bad, and the ugly.
