We are running four events in the Being Human Festival of the Humanities 17-25 November, all based on one of our Special Collections or Archives. Each event is designed and led by a researcher who has used our collections. Participation
in this festival is now an important part of our outreach programme and we have had excellent feedback from past events. The festival is national and there is very good support from the central organising team.
I have written a blog post summarising our events this year:

Happy to talk to anyone who might like to consider a submission for next year’s programme. The national programme of events is available here:
