This weekend, it’s the Annual Study Weekend for British and Irish music librarians, members of IAML(UK and Ireland). The study weekend is at the University of Edinburgh, so it’s not far for me to travel!
I was invited to talk about my research project, but I needed a new slant on it, since I gave a presentation about my St Andrews research (“Ghosts of Borrowers Past”) back in 2016. This time, therefore, I’ll be talking about the whole process of finding grant funding for projects. My talk (“Pathways, Outputs and Impacts”) is at 20.45 on Friday – after dinner, news and updates and another paper – so I hope I can be sufficiently entertaining to keep everyone interested. (In my mind’s eye, I see myself doing a quick tap-dancing routine, but sadly, I cannot dance at all …)
