    Leah Tether and Laura Chuhan Campbell Early Book Collections and Modern Audiences: Harnessing the Identity/ies of Book Collections as Collective Resources This article summarizes and contextualizes the discussions of a workshop held at Durham University in November 2018. In this workshop, participants (includ- ing academics, students, independent scholars, special and rare books librarians, and archivists) discussed the notion of the collection (that is, the identity of collection as a whole, rather than just its constituent parts), and its potential to serve as a means of engaging both scholarly and public audiences with early book cultures. This study sets out a series of considerations and questions that might be used when tackling such special collections engagement projects, including ones involving more modern collections than the case studies examined here. In November 2018, the Institute for Medieval and Early Modern Studies at Durham University kindly funded a workshop to investigate the ways in which contemporary audiences have been, are being, and can become engaged with medieval and early- modern book culture through the provision and distribution of key resources. These resources range from published books to digital artefacts and editions; from replica teaching kits—such as scriptorium suitcases—to physical archives and repositories.1 The aim of the workshop, which was led by one of this article’s two authors (Leah Tether), was to build a picture of best practice to inform the teaching and commu- 1. The authors are grateful to Durham’s Institute for Medieval and Early Modern Studies for fund- ing the workshop, and to the administrators of the Residential Research Library Fellowships (jointly organized by Ushaw College and Durham University) that enabled Leah Tether to spend time in Durham in November 2018.

Th e funeral, the culmination of a week of mourning, took place at St Mary ’ s of the Angle on Morehouse Road. Th e congregation and many more, who could not fi t into the packed church, processed through Notting Hill to the West London Crematorium. Th e size and diversity of the crowd was a testament to the breadth of respect that Crichlow commanded. Th e mourners included the biggest names from Britain ’ s Black Power Movement including Howe, Althea Jones-Lecointe and her husband Eddie who had fl own in from Trinidad for the occasion, as well as Rhodan Gordon. Th ere were also more mainstream black activists and politicians such as Lee Jasper and Paul Boateng; the fi lm maker Horace Ové and hundreds of ordinary people, not political in any obvious sense, whose lives Crichlow had touched. Boateng gave the eulogy, recalling Crichlow ’ s activism, his smile, and his ‘ grace under pressure, and boy was there pressure ’ (Boateng 2010).

The Parthenon sculptures consist of marble, architecture and architectural sculpture from the Parthenon in Athens, acquired by Lord Elgin between 1799 and 1810. Often referred to as both the Elgin Marbles and the Parthenon marbles, “Parthenon sculptures” is the British Museum’s preferred term.1 Lord Elgin’s authority to obtain the sculptures was the subject of a Select Committee inquiry in 1816. It found they were legitimately acquired, and Parliament then voted the funds needed for the British Museum to acquire them later that year.

  • To: Sir Liam Donaldson Chair, WHO World Alliance for Patient Safety World Health Organization IER/PSP 20 Avenue Appia CH-1211 Geneva 27 Switzerland
    To: Sir Liam Donaldson Chair, WHO World Alliance for Patient Safety World Health Organization IER/PSP 20 Avenue Appia CH-1211 Geneva 27 Switzerland As surgery is an integral part of health care and a major public health concern, and whilst the volume of surgery is rapidly growing worldwide, the California Hospital Association welcomes the new "Safe Surgery Saves Lives" initiative of the World Health Organization's (WHO) World Alliance for Patient Safety, which for the first time, addresses patient safety in surgical care as a matter of global importance. The California Hospital Association considers the improvement of surgical safety as essential to public health and endorses the concept of the "WHO Surgical Safety Checklist". The Checklist aims to support surgical teams anywhere in the world to ensure that patients undergo the right operation, at the correct body site, with safe anesthesia, established infection prevention measures, and effective teamwork for safer care. The California Hospital Association also supports the establishment of "Surgical Vital Statistics" requesting that countries track surgical volume and in-hospital surgical death rates. The importance of concerted unified action in these areas cannot be overstated. Together, we can prevent hundreds of thousands of deaths and complications from surgery on a global level. The California Hospital Association, therefore, strongly supports the "Safe Surgery Saves Lives" initiative and congratulates WHO on making it possible for all stakeholders to move in this direction. Date: February 12, 2009 Signature: ___________________________________ Name/Title: C. Duane Dauner, President/CEO .
