I'm chairing a webinar for University of West London Library Services on 9 December about how we've developed diversity and inclusion in our reading lists and collections, and how we measure the impact this has on narrowing awarding gaps.

Evaluation, Access and Participation Plans, strategies and tactics for doing the work yourself—all will be discussed!

Boost very welcome. 🙏

Are there any UK student nurses on Mastodon? I'm writing a book chapter on digital literacy for student nurses and it would be great to get your perspective on digital technology for a case study in the chapter. Get in touch, I would love to hear your thoughts, particularly as you are likely early adopters of Mastodon in the profession :)

Been in Belfast for a few days for work and stayed on to enjoy the city. Everywhere I've been, the hospitality and service has been excellent. The city has lots going on and it's well worth a weekend away. There's also tons of history to the city to learn about, beyond what you think of with the Troubles #Belfast

This feels oh so relevant at the moment:

"‘Taxation, gentlemen, is very much like dairy farming. The task is to extract the maximum amount of milk with the minimum of moo. And I am afraid to say that these days all I get is moo.’
‘Are you telling us that Ankh-Morpork is bankrupt?’ said Downey.
‘Of course. While, at the same time, full of rich people. I trust they have been spending their good fortune on swords.’" - Terry Pratchett, Jingo
