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
Please join us virtually on Friday 4 June 2021, for the first workshop of the project: Arabic Books and Astronomy in Seventeenth Century Oxford. This project is a short-term pilot survey sponsored by St John’s College, University of Oxford, to analyse the Arabic and Persian MSS on astronomical topics held in two Oxford libraries, St John’s College, and the Bodleian. Its focus is notes written on the MSS by the seventeenth-century Oxford scholars who used them, in this case multilingual marginalia and interlinear notes by John Greaves, which we will annotate and digitize.
