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 International Book Club will be meeting on Wednesday 27th November, 5pm at Queen’s College. We’ll discuss Celestial Bodies by Omani author Jokha Alharthi, translated from Arabic, and winner of the Man Booker International Prize 2019. We’re delighted that the translator, Marilyn Booth, will be joining us for our discussion.
