Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.

The earliest surviving fragments of codices come from Egypt – there was a recent flurry over one that might date to the 3rd century CE. The ‘Crosby-Schøyen Codex’ recently came to market from the 3rd to 4th century CE; Codex Amiatinus is the oldest complete Vulgate Bible, from the 7th century CE and was made in Jarrow before it passed to Italy. Books last. What confidence can we have that they will continue to do so? Is Open Scholarship sustainable? What do we need to do to ensure it is? And why does it matter?
