I've arrived at the beautiful University of Stirling for the 2025 Business Librarians Association 50th anniversary conference. It's my first time attending, and I have to say I couldn't have met a nicer bunch of people. Time to forget about my 4 a.m start and enjoy!

With Glasgow just 30 mins on the train from Stirling, it’d be rude not to pop over after #BLA25 and visit some libraries!

First up: The Mitchell Library, which houses the BL Business & IP Centre Glasgow

Getting students to respond to what they’ve read/listened to is a useful strategy for decoding texts, as it provides opportunity for personalisation. We all like talking about ourselves! #BLA25

“Carewashing” is when organisations claim they care about your wellbeing, but their actions say otherwise.

Having too many meetings is a part of this.

Do you think anything is lost if researchers don’t know how to do a literature search anymore? #BLA25

A little surreal to be back at the BLA (Business Librarians Association) after 10 years away. I’ll be keynoting tomorrow on ‘letting go of certainty’ #BLA25 #uncertainty #change #anxiety #failure

Panel discussion by 6 former BLA chairs. - imho very similar concerns, budget, Ai, disinformation etc discussion about value of the MLIS vs diversity (people who become librarians without going through traditional librarian role - should they get a MLIS?) #bla25
