I did enjoy this short lived attempt at a mainstream series from “The Tick.” It really deserves more attention but I guess it’s not everyone’s type of humor.

Research from LMICs can be invisible or disappear. How can we make preservation a default, not an afterthought? #researchequity

Research4Life and CLOCKSS partner to link access with preservation - Research4Life

Through this new partnership, we are linking access with preservation to support equity in research.

I'm so lucky to have a dog who drags me out of the house for nice walks. The autumn weather has been wonderfully mild the last few days, with no wind or rain, it's perfect for country outings. This is Mugdock Castle just outside of Glasgow 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A view of the castle tower from across the loch. The tree leaves are turning golden.

Fantastic broad yellow - leaves tree partially obscuring the castle.
