Really simple and helpful search tips from @wragge! Thanks for sharing! Especially liked the idea of using nuc: to limit search to collections of a particular org

Each article contains tags, which then link to items in the archive and articles from experts, for e.g. results from the tag 'Sharjah' https://t.co/yqKeSXyB9O

Currently exploring the digital collections at @BLQatar for a project and am really impressed with the integration of primary source material with their fully referenced expert articles! https://t.co/7HqxooVIL7 #twitterstorians

It gets better: 'All efforts to make the bird speak and so declare his identity failed. When "touched up" with a pencil by the Sergeant "Magpie" only scolded vigorously in his own particular language.' https://t.co/kc09rgU7HY via @TroveAustralia

[Nicole Cama @MuseumMinx]

Well this is a new one: 'Elizabeth Jones was charged with unlawfully detaining a magpie, valued at 10s, the property of Elinor Rutherford. Defendant pleaded not guilty.' https://t.co/fCFy0yJ0j9 via @TroveAustralia

Who knew you could make money as a “go-go” dancer? In 1966, Denise Drysdale earned as much as $400 a week as a go-go performer.

I just listened to @SydneyClio do the last @DictionaryofSyd spot on @2ser.

Before working on this great project, I really struggled to leave a voicemail message. Thanks to fab examples and kind mentors I can now do radio.

I’ll have to retire my “get up/go on air” sign 🥲📻
