Not one, but two super new roles @UkNatArcRes! Come work with me and help @UkNatArchives grow our collections-based research programmes: https://t.co/Wfz2ZKCOaY

[Edinburgh Community Bookshop @EdiCommBookshop]

We're looking for some extra bookcases to help us organise books for our new online shop which we're setting up. Does anyone have any going spare? Ideally IKEA Billy bookcases but open to seeing what is available.

Great idea: 'How to cheat on your final paper: Assigning AI for student writing'. AI & Soc (2022)

[Edinburgh Clin Ed @EdClinEd]

Please join us in wishing @debbiespence67 well for her retirement!

Loved by colleagues & students alike, Debbie's been a huge part of @EdClinEd's maturity & success. She embodies why good administrators are so important in educational programmes. 🥳

What an absolutely terrific career opportunity to work with the wonderful @richove and his fabulous colleagues @bodleianlibs

[Mike Sharples @sharplm]

Open University has announced intention to find a buyer for its 50% share in @FutureLearn. Not surprising as it has always sat uneasily beside OU degrees and @OUFreeLearning. But bad news for massive open online courses.

Very happy to share that The Oxford Handbook of Digital Ethics is now finished and will be out in the next few months! Some of it is already published online. If you're interested in #DigitalEthics, #AIEthics, #ethics, #privacy, #AI, #philosophy, this one is for you... 🧵👇

Why is news on platforms less trusted than news in general? What role do these companies play in eroding confidence in the news media? These are the questions at the heart of a new report based on survey data from 🇧🇷🇮🇳🇬🇧🇺🇸

There are very few people I’d do this for. But it seems I’m on the train to London to join a very long overnight queue with my dear old Mum.

Here comes a rolling thread about #TheQueue

The cost of living crisis will exacerbate this and needs action quickly, but we must not forget that the NHS needs urgent attention too

I'm not sure people know quite how bad it is, so here's a 🧵on NHS Key Performance Indicators

Please share widely.
