Fantastic example of why cataloguing needs to be an iterative process and why we need to keep revisiting old catalogues and understudied manuscripts. And of course the cherry on top is the Phillipps provenance! #MedievalSky #ManuscriptStudies

We are very excited that #DMSI2025 will be part of this year’s IMC!

#MedievalSky I should mention that while applications to #DMSI2025 are open to everyone, we’re especially interested in reaching (post)graduates, ECRs and medievalists who don’t ordinarily have opportunities to engage with digital methods. All workshops are designed with newcomers to #DH in mind! 💻📚

A rare #snowday in Leeds!

Are any of y'all Dean of a college of liberal arts? If so, would you be willing to share a CV? Thx!

Do you have a favorite reading or resource that relates to collection development for special collections & archives? How to be a curator? There's no textbook specifically on this topic and I want to make sure I'm not missing anything in this syllabus I'm creating. 📜

Reflecting on 2024: I’m not always great at acknowledging my achievements, but this year, I took a moment to look back at what I’ve accomplished. Here’s my #YearInReview2024 —it’s been a journey! 🚀
