Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Join Mélodie Doumy (British Library) and Luk Yu-ping (British Museum) for a lecture focusing on the digital discovery of manuscripts, paintings, prints, textiles and other objects discovered in Dunhuang and sites in northwest China, dating mainly from the 5th to 11th centuries, now held in the British Library and the British Museum. The Bodleian Libraries preserve the extensive manuscript notes, diaries and archaeological fieldnotes of Sir Marc Aurel Stein who collected this material in the early 20th century. By bringing together curatorial experts from separately held yet interconnected collections and archives, the lecture will offer an overview of the Stein Collection’s formation, its dispersal across different institutions, and the scope of the items involved.
The Digital East Asia Lectures are co-hosted by the Centre for Digital Scholarship and the Asian and Middle Eastern Collections at the Bodleian Libraries. Registration is required.
