Spring Forum 2018 – Beyond Our Walls: Helping Users Beyond Our Core #uhmlg2018

We were delighted to have 5 keynotes – all showing ways that we can help users other than our “core” users, or how we can go beyond the “core” needs of our users to help them more holistically. All slides are loaded as PDF.
