Really excited to welcome #dcdc25 delegates to our amazing visitor attractions as part of the conference offer. www.durham.ac.uk/things-to-do/

Great conference. Topped off by winning a book in the photo comp, donated by Facet Publishing. Thank you to all the organisers... you're amazing, and the wonderful speakers and delegates. And lunch was well lush! #ALN25

We've written a Researcher's Guide to Bluesky!

It's a bit like all those other useful guides to Bluesky, but with several useful insights from University of York academics about using the platform, and we'd love it if it was reposted far and wide...
