  7. 2023 Core Forum Attendee Testimonials I loved that it was much smaller than a big ALA conference, it really gave me a chance to connect with people and interact more with the presenters. Larger conferences can feel overwhelming due to the number of attendees, sessions, etc. Core was a good size, with a wide variety of topics and an interesting mix of people. Everything was so well-organized and it felt like the conference was executed well by all of the people involved. I liked that there was even representation of each of the Core Sections in the presentations. core@ala.org www.ala.org/core It was enjoyable to be at a national conference that felt so intimate.
