Get in touch if you'd like to meet for a chat about digital scholarship, digital humanities or AI / machine learning in libraries, archives and museums!

I'm chairing a session on AI in libraries at CILIP's 2024 conference in Birmingham in July. I'm also making a flying visit to Cambridge.

I'll be in DC / Virginia in early August for Digital Humanities 2024 (DH2024).

I'll be in Luxembourg September 3 – 6 for the International Federation of Public History (IFPH)'s annual conference.

I'll be in Krakow in late September and Gothenburg in early October, so I may travel overland between the two over the weekend between the two events.

On November 5th I'm convening a panel on AI in Libraries for Libraries in Leeds.

Recent books

I'm currently working on chapters for the final Living with Machines book.

In January 2023, Collaborative Historical Research in the Age of Big Data: Lessons from an Interdisciplinary Project by Ruth Ahnert, Emma Griffin, me and Giorgia Tolfo was published by Cambridge University Press.

In 2021 I wrote another book with 15 or so brilliant co-authors: The Collective Wisdom Handbook: perspectives on crowdsourcing in cultural heritage

My edited volume on 'Crowdsourcing our Cultural Heritage' for Ashgate, featuring chapters from some of the most amazing people working in the field was published in October 2014 and reprinted a few times subsequently. You can read my introduction on the OU repository: Crowdsourcing Our Cultural Heritage: Introduction.

By day, I'm usually at work at home at the British Library, so drop me a line if you'd like to meet for coffee and a chat. My availability for events is limited, but you can drop me a line if you'd like to book me for an event.
