Hey ZLuC-kers 2024!! We’re less than one week away and so EXCITED to see you! We have a final roundup of information, so please review as your schedule permits before arriving Friday!! The full Zine Librarians unConference will take place on Saturday, August 3 through Sunday, August 4. There’s plenty of general info on our main ZineLibraries page about ZLuC 2024 <https://www.zinelibraries.info/wiki/zluc-nyc-2024/>, but key details include that we’re meeting at NYU’s Bobst Library <https://library.nyu.edu/locations/elmer-holmes-bobst-library/> and the activity begins Saturday, August 3 at 9am for breakfast. The full schedule <https://www.zinelibraries.info/wiki/zluc-nyc-2024/schedule-just-a-sketch/> is also available. To get into Bobst Library, you will need to check in with the campus safety officer at the desk all the way to the right (or perhaps at the “donut” in the center of the entrance) by showing a photo ID and/or the email you received from the NYU JRNY system with visitor access information. There are several revolving doors and a fully accessible door at the far west side of the Library’s entrance. There will be a ZLuC Welcome volunteer right behind campus safety to help you navigate to the 2nd Floor, where our activities will commence and ZLuC Registration will take place (and you’ll be able to sign up for the Sunday tours of zine collections and archives). If you get into town on Friday, check out the schedule for suggestions on social activities to participate in. If you’re staying in NYU Housing <https://www.zinelibraries.info/wiki/zluc-nyc-2024/zluc-housing-info/>, you can find plenty to do around Palladium Hall. If you’ve signed up for housing, you should have heard from NYU and Lauren Kehoe ( lsrkthelibrarian@gmail.com or lsk221@nyu.edu) with more details. If not, please contact Lauren ASAP to confirm!! Final housing payment is due Friday, August 2. To make sure that everyone has a great time at ZLuC, please familiarize yourself with our Code of Conduct <https://www.zinelibraries.info/wiki/zluc-nyc-2024/zluc-2024-code-of-conduct/> and COVID policies and mitigation strategies <https://www.zinelibraries.info/wiki/zluc-nyc-2024/covid-policy/>. We strongly encourage masking at all times and please avoid using heavily scented products (like deodorant, scented lotion, or perfume)! We also have a statement on the heightened police presence at NYU <https://www.zinelibraries.info/wiki/zluc-nyc-2024/statement-on-heightened-security-and-police-presence-at-nyu/> . When you check in at the registration desk on the 2nd Floor, you will be given an opportunity to make a conference badge lanyard choice. There are three different options and each lanyard will indicate your comfort with being photographed and/or visually documented. The lanyards with smiley faces indicate you’re comfortable with photography, a rainbow lanyard indicates you should be asked first to be in a photo, and cat paws lanyard means you do not want to be photographed. There will be a Care Team to address any incidents that arise while at events that happen at NYU’s Bobst Library, but let us know if you have any questions or concerns! You can reach the Care Team at: (646) 631-2755 We’ll have printouts of our ZLuC 2024 Zine <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1lbpoBMfFSbL_fC-0RF9CsFjIbmQrhCjv_-SRk-GFcas/edit#slide=id.p>, but you can browse a digital version (that's still being edited a little) ahead of time! See you soon!! Lauren, Gina, and Jenna -- zluc2024 mailing list zluc2024@lists.zinelibraries.info http://lists.zinelibraries.info/listinfo.cgi/zluc2024-zinelibraries.info
