Neurodivergent experiences of archives – call for workshop participants Are you a (UK-based) neurodivergent researcher who has used archives in your work? Or an archive, library, or collections professional who would like to inform discussions on neurodivergent user access? Or a neurodivergent archive, library, or collections professional who can offer insights into accessibility? As part of the EDI Caucus funded project ‘Divergent Minds in the Archive’ , we, a group of neurodivergent humanities academics, will be running a series of research and knowledge exchange workshops at archives around the UK, and online, in summer 2025. These workshops will bring together archive users and professionals to share archive experiences, identify potential barriers for neurodivergent users, and creatively ‘re-imagine’ archival spaces through zine-making. We can fund limited travel expenses for participants to workshops, including support worker travel and overnight accommodation where necessary. Please apply for one workshop only. We are currently recruiting participants for the following workshops, to be hosted by: ● ● Glamorgan Archives, Cardiff, Tuesday 29 July, 10am-4.15pm. Liverpool Records Office, Liverpool, Thursday 14 August, 10am-4.15pm. Please apply by Monday 21st July, or as soon as possible if you need travel support. If you cannot make these events, but would like to hear more about the project, sign up to our mailing list for more information in due course. Please feel free to get in touch with further questions at divergentmindsarchive@gmail.com. All the very best, Ria, Lucie, and Ann-Marie The project is led by Dr Ria Cheyne, Liverpool John Moores University; Dr Ann-Marie Foster, Robert Gordon University/Imperial War Museums; and Dr Lucinda Matthews-Jones, Liverpool John Moores University. Our partners are Glamorgan Archives, Gwent Archives, History UK, Imperial War Museums, Liverpool Record Office, Scottish Council on Archives,
