Sitting down with the @ipres2025.bsky.social programme to make sure I can squeeze in as many sessions as possible but have to have my coffee first! www.ipres2025.nz/programme

Thanks so much to @dri.ie colleagues and Sharon Healy (Web Archive historian) for a really fab #HeritageWeek event that not only covered the history of web archives (with special mention of the Alternative Miss Ireland websites), but showed people how to archive their own websites as well 🕸️🔗

Back on campus in @tcddublin.bsky.social but my first visit to the Eavan Boland library @tcdlibrary.bsky.social I really enjoyed the Denaming and Renaming exhibition, especially the inclusion of all names put forward for consideration. Lovely buzz with lots of visitors too.

One of my favourite days in the @dri.ie work calendar is our member site visit where we meet members to learn more about their work. Thanks to @dclareadingroom.bsky.social for hosting today. It was brilliant to chat about ongoing work, explore new opportunities & learn more about your collections

Loved Emma Rothwell's talk on Charlotte Brooke which was part discovery of an Irish language scholar and part useful instructions on how to navigate @ria.ie library catalogues 💚💚💚

Fascinating talk by Leanne Harrington of Duageo Archive on women's work in the Guinness trade ledgers from 1860 highlighting the extent of women working in pubs. You can browse their ledgers here: www.guinness-storehouse.com/en/discover/...

Fascinating talk by Ciara Breathnach on evidence of women's work in the records of the Congested Districts Board. Ciara discussed how women's work and contributions to local and domestic economy was difficult to quantity and so unrecorded

Amazing start to Everyday a women: Irish Women in archival sources. @badbridgetbook.bsky.social Elaine and Leanne gave a really illuminating talk on criminal Irish women and how they found them in the archives
