Final parallel for me New Methodologies. Loved hearing about Birminghamâs âLibrary Shapersâ. Staff from across library and learning resources can request students from the Library Shapers group to assist them in service development. Paid as casual workers.

The president wants to eliminate the agency backing libraries and museums. But the institutions do far more than lend books

Inspiring lecture by the incomparable Caroline Criado Perez. Just one of the scary stats: If a woman is involved in a car crash and wearing a seatbelt she is 73% more likely to be seriously injured or die than a man wearing a seatbelt. Why? Cars are tested with only male anatomy crash dummies!

I entirely agree, and I think we are going to see a lot of academic libraries cancelling packages and subs, and directing users to ILL, Open Access and OER resources in their place. But that gives rise to another challenge that this article doesn't address.... 1/ đ
