Search and Discovery in Archives and Special Collections - online workshop

Search and Discovery in Archives and Special Collections - online workshop Online

This workshop for researchers includes the opportunity to view rare items from the University Archive & Special Collections. You can join us on Teams.

We will cover:

  • an overview of our collections
  • search approaches for items in our collections and wider national collections
  • access arrangements and developing digital possibilitie

The Special Collections Librarian, Nancy Jackson, will be glad to discuss how we might be able to support your research or assist you to incorporate viewings or digitised versions of collection items into your teaching.

Note: this is a repeat but online version of the same workshop taking place on the same day at 10.30am, without the option to view physical items. The slides of the presentation and the collection menu will be share with online participants. However, the in-person visit to the venue (and even handling the rare material in some cases) would give you the opportunity observe and be inspired by the materials closely. We therefore strongly encourage you to book in-person if circumstances allow. If you can make it in person after booking, please cancel this booking and register the inperson workshop instead.
