Belatedly, thanks very much to everyone who organised and attended this event and for all the kind words. I’ve been so lucky to know you all. Literally a new chapter for me as I’m writing a book on the positioning of academic libraries with @facetpublishing, due in (later!) 2025!

On Tuesday, we celebrated the retirement of John Cox, University Library after 24 years of dedicated service. The event was attended by the University President, Deputy President & Registrar, and colleagues from across the University. We wish John a happy and healthy retirement.
