Just watched this great talk from Rhonda McClure at American Ancestors on Ireland’s religious roots. Fascinating overview of the laws, power structures, and forces that shaped the lives and faith of Irish ancestors reaching back to the 1600s.

Nelson’s Pillar had already lost its nose in the 1916 Rising—but the Republican Army finished the job in the ‘60s. This photo captures a calm months before the blast. A symbol toppled, a city transformed.

Had a blast at last Thursday's ISA lecture on the History of the Royal College of Surgeons! 🩺📖
Learned so much about the impact of @rcsi.bsky.social on modern surgery and how far we’ve come. Huge thanks to Dr. Ronan Kelly for delivering such an engaging talk!

Never seen that one. It was last summer already and it was a fantastic event in the Linenhall in Belfast. Looking forward to talking more about the North later in the year. #IrishArchives

Imagine if we had closed the MSPC for 100 years...we would have started releasing material only last year, while closing a huge amount of documentation. What a shame this would have been. Of course there are legal safeguards and we implement GDPR and Section 8 NAI Act when they apply. #IrishArchives
Cataloguing Wednesday with an only too rare but lovely find.

I’m so proud to have worked on this with Chris Sheridan and to get it over the line with input from @araireland.bsky.social committee.
It is hugely important that we get as accurate a picture as possible shot the state of our ARM sector on the island. Please share!
