OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Bodleian iSkills: Archives and modern papers for Social Sciences and History
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.
