OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Early printed books from Ukraine: Treasures from the Bodleian
The first Ukrainian book was printed in 1574, and by the end of the seventeenth century more than 750 books had been printed at over 40 presses on the territory of what is now Ukraine. The Bodleian possesses a number of these, some extremely rare; its holdings cover a wide variety of material, from a complete Bible to small books intended for teaching reading. This presentation reflects both on their significance as specimens of printing from Eastern Europe and as part of one of the oldest and most extensive English collections.
Organised in partnership with the Oxford University Ukrainian Society.
