My job is to ensure the Union has enough money to provide all the services, societies and activities that benefit its members. As well as taking responsibility for the finances of the Union, which has a turnover in excess of 2 million pounds, I also oversee the work of the union with freshers, societies and the environment. Involvement The DSU treasurer acts as publisher for all our publications, including this handbook, as well as the award winning student newspaper Palatinate, and the student broadcaster Purple FM. While DSU acts as publisher for these media organisations we do not editorially interfere - you don’t win national awards for printing newsletters! So what about me? DSU treasurer is my job, but it isn’t my life. I play men’s lacrosse for the University, have a keen interest in science and the arts, and graduated in 2002 to the degree of Master in Science. My favorite activities usually involve my friends - indeed the fact that I am writing this in the lakeside cottage of a friend of mine from Finland (who I met in my second year at Hatfield) suggests that the friends you meet at University will play an important role in your life now an after you have graduated. Welfare This is my second year in office so I hope to carry over my experience and enthusiasm into some major projects this year. However, one thing my experience tells me is that 12,000 pairs of eyes see clearer than just one.

    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.

  • The University Library’S Special Collections, Indicating Date Range and Subject Coverage and Explaining the Means of Access to These Important Research Collections
    Printed Special Collections in Durham University Library: a Guide to Catalogues This guide is intended to list and briefly describe the main groups of printed material held in the University Library’s Special Collections, indicating date range and subject coverage and explaining the means of access to these important research collections. Information is also given on early printed book collections in other Durham libraries. THE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY The University Library has rich collections of early printed books and local material, and some specialist collections of modern printed items. Some of these are associated with particular manuscript and archive collections, but finding-aids to the manuscripts and archives are outside the scope of this guide. The Library’s Special Collections are all housed in its Palace Green Section. Apart from local material, most of the collections described here are not available on open access but are produced on request for consultation in the Search Room at Palace Green. CATALOGUE ACCESS Records for a significant proportion of this material are not yet available on the Library’s OPAC (on-line public access catalogue), although the OPAC does include most post-1900 material and a steadily growing proportion of the earlier Special Collections books. Access to many pre-1801 items, however, is still via the old Author Catalogues at the Main Library and at Palace Green, supplemented by the various catalogues of individual collections listed below. For more information about the old Author Catalogues see the separate Guide to the Older Catalogues; it is important to read this thoroughly. For certain categories of material, however, quick finding-aids available in the Search Room at Palace Green provide the most rapid and comprehensive way to discover what is available; most of these cover the holdings of both the University and other Durham Libraries.

Theatre and museum tickets The summer may be nearly over but there’s WELCOME plenty to look forward to in the coming to the autumn edition of months including Lumiere and the Durham Book Festival. Durham County News Lumiere is returning for its fifth outing this November and once again we’re working with leading arts charity, Artichoke, to Councillor Simon Henig, produce a festival that will again illuminate Leader of the Council Durham in spectacular and delightful ways.

It is also particularly pleasing that this year will see an installation which illuminates the people behind so many of our vital services.

  • English Heritage / Heritage at Risk 2013 / North East
    Heritage at Risk is our campaign to save listed buildings and important historic sites, places and landmarks from neglect or decay. At its heart is the Heritage at Risk Register, an online database containing details of each site known to be at risk. It is analysed and updated annually and this leaflet summarises the results. Heritage at Risk teams are now in each of our nine local offices, delivering national expertise locally. The good news is that we are on target to save 25% (1,137) of the sites that were on the Register in 2010 by 2015. From Clifford’s Fort, North Tyneside to the Church of St Andrew, Haughton le Skerne, this success is down to good partnerships with owners, developers, the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), Natural England, councils and local groups. It will be increasingly important to build on these partnerships to achieve the overall aim of reducing the number of sites on the Register. Carol Pyrah, Planning and Conservation Director, North East Despite the continued recession, the number of sites that the HLF has continued to invest in the future of places on the Register continues to fall. The economic climate of worship by supporting vital church repairs. HLF funding may be uncertain, but successful partnerships across the has also secured a future for the Bowes Railway Trust by North East are removing many important heritage assets helping them develop training, education and heritage from the Register. This year we have successfully removed skills. These projects are being successfully delivered by 12 entries and offered £566,000 in grant towards 9 volunteers who deserve our support and encouragement.

    THE MAGAZINE FOR ALUMNI AND FRIENDS OF DURHAM UNIVERSITY 2018 ISSUE 04 ISSUE 04 2018 DUNELM MAGAZINE 3 Dear alumni of Durham Durham, as it always has, is continuing to develop. Major advances have been made on the plans laid out in the University Strategy, 2017-2027. As you will see in your magazine, we have begun work on a new Centre for Teaching and Learning near St Mary’s and we now have planning permission for our 17th college, the first in ten years, which will be built near Van Mildert on South Road. The developments at Maiden Castle and in Computer Science are also moving forward quickly. You can see the artists’ drawings of some of these projects over the next few pages. In order to prepare the way for the transition of colleges and departments into Durham from Queen’s Campus Stockton, Ustinov College has now moved into a first-class new home at Sheraton Park (the old Neville’s Cross college site), and John Snow and Stephenson Colleges have established bases in Durham City in preparation for their move into Durham over the summer. Meanwhile in Queen’s, our new International Study Centre (ISC) has enjoyed a successful first term, and we are looking forward to a large number of ISC students joining Durham University degree courses next year. All of this work is designed not only to keep Durham at the pinnacle of UK education but also to expand our global reputation and reach; and so I am also pleased to let you know that we have a new Pro-Vice-Chancellor, Professor Claire O’Malley, who will lead on globalizing Durham.
