I've been absent from Twitter the past few months, but will definitely hop back on for a moment to give a shout out to Trans Day of Visibility #TDOV

Have you taken a look at the questions for Tuesday night's #auslibchat yet? https://t.co/JQnuXeptCK We don't mind saying that we think it's going to be an interesting chat!

A while back I wrote about a new harm minimisation model that could be applied to GLAM spaces. My new post looks at two case studies and applies the model to them

@aliangac In general this was a lot of movie ephemera and Futurama merch. I still have some key pieces, but nowhere near the amount I had when I was actively collecting. #AusLibChat

[Samantha Hay @sambrarian]

@aliangac While I was renting, I stopped including things that were just added to a collection for the sake of the collection and didn't have any additional meaning to them. Wasn't worth the hassle of moving them to the next place😔 #AusLibChat

[ALIA NGAC @aliangac]

The September #AusLibChat is coming up soon, and this time we're talking about Personal Collections.

Have a look at the questions here https://t.co/KRhgq7TsDk

According to some a collection is any more than two of the same, or similar objects.

So, what do you collect?

@sarah_h_i Then I shall try and watch it at the right time - as someone who enjoys some truly questionable bad movies, I am all for enjoying things because it's fun to watch or what you're in the mood for!
No promise on reading the books either though haha, my list is way too long already!

[Samantha Hay @sambrarian]

@sarah_h_i Interesting, someone else who watched it and told me about it didn't enjoy it so much... Will have to watch it and see what my thoughts are!

[ALIA NGAC @aliangac]

Check out an awesome #PD opportunity!

Have you joined the @ALIANewGrads book club yet? They'll be discussing My Brilliant Career by Miles Franklin in August/September. More info here: https://t.co/boRQ63WD7C

[ALIA NGAC @aliangac]

In the spirit of being kind to ourselves & acknowledging how challenging these times are for everyone, NGAC will be taking a break from #AusLibChat in August. We’ll be renewed & ready to go for September, with a fun chat topic and some fresh faces too!

[ALIA NGAC @aliangac]

For those of you following the survey results, WA has pulled ahead of the pack with 59 responses! Where are the ACT people? There have only been 2 responses from ACT! You have one more week left before the survey closes: https://t.co/UBCMaLgGGG

[CURTIS @curtininfostud]

Just retweeting this to remind anyone in the GLAM fields, student or professional that we are still seeking your valuable feedback ✨
