OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Many historians have learned to pay attention to material and visual sources. This shift in practice has brought historians into closer contact with museum collections and the professionals who manage, preserve, collect, and display them. These interactions can be enriching and productive—as the AHRC’s Collaborative Doctoral Partnership programme (tinyurl.com/ywymkw6d) shows. But they can also obscure the distinctions between historical and collections-based careers. Bringing together a range of museum professionals, this panel discussion aims to clarify those differences, helping you to identify effective strategies for pursuing your chosen professional goals. Questions welcome!
A sandwich lunch will be provided following the event – registration is required but places are limited.
