What an incredible week it was for — and it's all thanks to you.

This year was especially exciting as we joined INSciTS for a joint conference day with the SciTS Conference ( ). Together, we brought national and international TBL professionals together to connect, share, and learn from one another.

A huge thank you to our 2025–2026 Program Committee, chaired by Dr. Todd Kelson and co-chaired by Dr. Akshata Naik, and to the JulNet team for their invaluable support in making this international conference a reality.

For updates on next year's conference, be sure to keep an eye on your email, as well as follow the TBLC Facebook and LinkedIn pages.

We can't wait to see you next year!
