🔁Repost this thread to help share the highlights from this week's Staff Assembly, where the UEA community used its voice LOUD & CLEAR to tell management to change course in its handling of the current crisis. #SaveUEA #UKHE @ucu [1/10]

FREE BISCUITS! We're improving our website and need your help. Join us for a 10 minute user testing session this week, showing us how you use our website, and we'll reward you with a sweet treat! Find us on Floor 0 on Tuesday (2-4pm), Wednesday (3-4pm) and Thursday (10am-12pm).

@niamhtumelty It seems to me that open research is gaining some traction now. Certainly preferable in engaging with HSS.

I do wish the phrase "open science" wasn't so embedded now. It results in whole disciplines assuming none of it applies to them and does the whole endeavour a disservice. We need to make sure that open research is developed in a way that does not exclude whole fields of research

Fancy creating your own display in the Library? We are looking for student volunteers who would like to work with us to curate a display. This could include art, books, objects - or anything that interests you. Email us at lib.helpdesk@uea.ac.uk for more information. #UEA

@UEALibrary As well as suggesting books and giving us feedback and ideas, we're also really keen to see some student-led displays

And also our table on Decolonising @UEALibrary and how you can get involved

If you're on campus, make sure you check out the Black History Month display

Congrats @UEAArchives Justine Mann! Justine has been awarded a Fellowship funded by the AHRC-RLUK Professional Practice Fellowship Scheme for research and academic libraries to explore how archives can involve communities in developing collections to address underrepresentation.

Have you seen our new soundproof study booth?  Located on Floor 0, this neat new addition to the Library is the perfect place to take phone and video calls, so you can cut out the background noise and distractions!  #UEA #UEALibrary #UEALibraryStudySpace

And a whole summer of reading here...

And still a few more days to grab books (and badges!) from here

Great to see new book display in @UEALibrary to mark South Asian Heritage Month

You may have noticed that LEAN Library has changed recently - here's our video explaining everything you need to know!  @leanlibrary #LEANLibrary #UEA #UEALibrary my.mtr.cool/vpmetqyjod

Graduating this week? Still have Library items to return? You’re in luck! We have a Library book return box stationed outside The Enterprise Centre - only a two-minute walk from the Sportspark. Huge congrats to those graduating this week! #UEAGraduation #UEA #UEALibrary

A very warm welcome to everyone joining us for today’s @uniofeastanglia Open Day! 😀 Our staff and students can’t wait to meet you to chat about our brilliant degrees with English Literature, Drama and Creative Writing📚 🎭 🖊️ #UEAOpenDay

#UEAOpenDay 8 July! Discover a host of fascinating items from the archives of world famous writers who have studied or worked with @uealdc over the years. Find us on floor 02 of @uealibrary & look out for teasers beside the lecture theatre 👀#NaomiAlderman #ThePower #DorisLessing

Research conducted by @uniofeastanglia has shown that the typical Library provides services each year "worth £1m", and their value "could equate to six times their running costs." Fantastic to see the importance of Libraries highlighted! @libsconnected theguardian.com/books/2023/jul…
