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
How do we reach out to different communities? How do we break down the barriers to our universities, our services, our collections? How do we address issues from our histories? How do make people feel at home?
Practitioners from university services – libraries, museum, staff and student services (names and roles) – talk about how they deliver inclusive services and have overcome some of the barriers they have faced.
Join us to hear about the Bodleian Libraries’ ‘We Are Our History’ project, which has addressed issues of race and Empire in our collections, and considered impact on services and infrastructure. Also come to hear different approaches to diversity from different providers and discuss how we can make our services more inclusive.
The event will be followed by a drinks’ reception to which all attendees are welcome.
Booking is recommended – we look forward to seeing you soon!
