A very insightful, enjoyable and informative day spent at DMU attending the @merciancollab.bsky.social #mercian26 conference today. Including quite a few papers from our wonderful Warwick staffers.

Thanks to everyone involved/speaking today!

Okay thank you University of Buckingham - my favourite slide of the day #obviousbias #mercian26

Huzzah. My talk with its heavy Doctor Who metaforical/allegorical content went down okay.

Fave thing about #mercian26 is the librarian fashion stylings en masse. What a groovy bunch we are! Lots of repping of the dearly departed @joanieclothing.bsky.social (😭) - blood prints ftw!

Attending the #Mercian26 Conference today?

Manchester University Press is exhibiting for the first time as Gold Sponsors of this year's conference. Pop by our stand to have a chat about how we can support your library and grab your very own MUP bucket hat!

Hearing about spotlight sessions from the Univ Nottingham as a route to regular service promotion and outreach.

Encouraging hearing about routes to a coordinated and regular comms programme like this.

ABM after all

#mercian26

Oh my yes the usability testing of customer journeys '14 different pain points'

Sounds like a typical LMS to me 😂

#mercian26

Into a session on UX which you know is a seXy topic because of the X.

Also fun at they've already mentioned ethnography in the opening bit.

#fun

Highly enjoyable keynote from Anne-Lise Harding (House of Commons Library)

Very personal. Very authentic. Surprisingly uplifting too given the finacial precariaity theme of the conference.

Right, packed and ready - now for the lengthy schlep to DMU for today's #mercian26 conference.

Oh okay, stroll down the hill to the local railway station for the 15 minute ride there. But you know, I've still got to get dressed and everything!

UWP will be appearing at tomorrow's #mercian26 conference talking about their last year of strategic review and where we go from here.

Hope to see you there!

Tomorrow I'll be at the #mercian26 conference at DMU, Leicester talking about my strategic review project (as it enters its final days). Hoping to run into more than a few old faces while I'm there.
