it was exceptional. always great to hear from someone who is passionate about their role and is also conscious of the broader social impact of their work (must be the Irish mammy!). really enjoyed it.

still in the process of submitting, but I imagine there will (in due course) be a *really* interesting talk about the nuances of applying for such an award in a library which has a large majority of female staff - puts an interesting nuance on things #LibPMC2025

@lauraconnaughtonmu.bsky.social & Catherine about to kick off their talk on leveraging data to assist in applying for Athena Swan. #libPMC2025

@liamthorp.bsky.social

Brilliant keynote from Liam Thorpe. Data underpinning human stories. #LibPMC2025

@teach-research.bsky.social great talk, genuine insights about user behaviour and legacy uses. #LibPMC2025

Really interesting findings from @qualitydog.bsky.social about use of digital book use. Rigour of research gave great credibility to their findings #LibPMC2025

Handy systematic review: Mumelas & Martek (2024) Benefits of citizen science for libraries. Publications, 12(1),p.8.

Takeaway from keynote #LibPMC2025 is that citizen science is a lot broader than I imagined

Great to see #LFC represented at the start of #LibPMC conference. proper order!

God knows I complain about the weather (a lot) but the last 4 weeks have been pretty good. (This is high calibre content right here!)

Niall, I would make you president!

the continuing fragmentation of social media is making it harder to follow #uksg2025 in full, from a distance. Thanks to all who are posting here!

Hume scholarships are now open. A great opportunity: www.maynoothuniversity.ie/graduate-res...

I often think we are always a bit in a tension between genuine vocation led pride but also a strange insecurity. That (to my mind) often manifests notably at conferences

Best of luck to @padraigkenny.bsky.social on the launch of his new book - tonight in dubray. 👏

Not sure that’s ’unpopular’ except with shareholders of zoom!

Still cross with you @clarivateag.bsky.social, still cross!

I see Egon has got a position in a certain large scale library vendor...

Ciaran Reilly of History @maynoothuniversity.ie kicking off his talk for tonight’s local history talk

Great to see this from @sarahwebbwriter.bsky.social on the importance of libraries @cathalmccauley.bsky.social

The MAGA movement will not be shamed by pointing out the basic features of a liberal pluralist democracy. They don't believe in any of it. They see it as a weakness, something that merely holds them back or slows their efforts to reshape their world.

Good grief.

Bravo! See this @padraigkenny.bsky.social @endaguinan.bsky.social
