Managing desk rotas / change @uwtsdlib.bsky.social Sam Brinkworth and Alison Scanlon from UWTSD libraries on changing the way they set up rotas, in the face of no budget for new software and some reluctance to change.

Now we have Andrea and Bethan from @swanseauni.bsky.social library, talking about the 'ChatterBooks’ student engagement project and how this links with the university's Core Values.

@ebscouk.bsky.social's Orla McNally is speaking now about how EBSCO have supported libraries and continue to do so through their products and services. WHELF would like to thank EBSCO for their sponsorship today.

After a quick break (sadly no conference coffee and cake online) we have Nicola Jones from @cardiffunilib.bsky.social talking about print/eBook acquisition and their Customer Insights project.

And we are underway! @whelfed.bsky.social WHELF Colloquium 2025 starts with @alisonharding.bsky.social reading a Mary Oliver poem "Don't Hesitate"
