OLA Lightning Strikes 2025
During the 2025 OLA Lightning Strikes, I had an opportunity to share ideas on how academic libraries can better support students with their side hustles. By providing practical solutions, I believe that both academic and public libraries can continue to support their patron’s financial projects.
I also created a mini subject guide to assist students to start their side hustle journey.

In collaboration with my group members, I was responsible for the video creation to convey our fictional library’s Fine Free policy.

After my team’s narration recording session, I then undertook the editing and addition of captions for increased
accessibility.
