Time: Tuesday, November 15, 5.15 pm GMT 

David Thomas and Valerie Johnson will be discussing the archival implications of the shift to digital, as well as the question of whether, despite over £100 million investment by government in digital resources, it is possible to do large-scale digitally-based research in the humanities.
