OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The Bodleian’s Weston Library has a wealth of resources covering almost all aspects of modern British society and culture. This session will introduce key finding aids, identify relevant material in Oxford and elsewhere, look at types of archives and modern papers, cover some considerations when working with archival material and get you started with the research skills needed to make the most of these resources. You will have an opportunity in the session to handle some actual examples.
Intended Audience: Students, researchers and other Bodleian Libraries’ readers considering using modern papers and archives in social science or historical research.
