Just flagging up some articles about recent developments in the ongoing Women's Library saga.
LSE have been named as the new custodian of the WL.
This article is telling as they refer to the Library as "collections" as opposed to just a Library. This is far from an ideal solution, and it would be interesting to know what the other bidders were proposing.
This is the Guardian piece about the "saviour" of the WL by LSE.
And here is a dissatisfied retort, which captures the voices of many.
It's good to see that London Met will continue to fight for this, but I fear it may be fruitless.
Blog to document my AHRC-funded PhD in Museum Studies. My research challenges the lack of visibility of queer identities in historic houses (specifically National Trust houses). I also blog about more general museums and heritage issues as well as queer, feminist and LGBT matters.
