I'm delighted to announce the publication of my AHRC-RLUK funded report @RL_UK. This is not the end of the conversation, only the beginning. Watch this space for further developments!

Really pleased to be invited to give this talk to the @CatholicArcSoc conference. Thought-provoking discussion afterwards that introduced exciting new perspectives and angles to explore! @RL_UK @ahrcpress @OfReligious @CatholicRS #catholicheritage

A big thank you to all religious institutes who completed my archives survey. I am in the process of analysing results but initial findings are surprising to say the least! Looking forward to presenting these findings @CatholicArcSoc and @ARAUK_IE conferences, thanks to @RL_UK

Enjoying a day in the Middlesbrough Diocese archives today. Lots of great information on the Capuchin presence at Thirsk, where they were parish priests from the 1920s until 1960! #CathHist #twitterstorians #Catholicism #capuchins

Our prayers are with the Anglican Benedictine Community at Alton Abbey, who have made the decision to close the community house and disperse while remaining as Brothers in vows.

Snow before Christmas, unusual at Buckfast. In fact snow is unusual even after Christmas!

A major part of my research project will be to send out a survey at the end of January to all religious institutes in England/Wales, seeking information on their archives and future storage plans. With the help of @OfReligious, I'm hoping for a BIG response! #catholicarchives

The Erfgoedcentrum Nederlands Kloosterleven near Nijmegen in the Netherlands. A centralised repository for the archives of religious institutes and a model example of the art of the possible! #catholicarchives

@ISHWR_A Looking forward to it!

@SepsCollections Check out their uncatalogued collections storage area. An archive cataloguer's dream (or nightmare)! @SpColl_KULeuven
