Are you interested in disability history? Do you enjoy locating quality research materials on the internet?
Join a group of volunteers at the Disability History Hackathon on Fri 2 December to find resources which will form the basis of a Disability History Resources LibGuide.

After a brief training session on advanced Google searches, you will work individually or in small groups on locating research resources (databases, archives, websites, etc.) on a particular aspect of disability history. You will create brief descriptions for each resource which will then added to the Disability History Resources LibGuide at a later stage. We expect to spend up to 2 hours on the Hackathon with a break in between and refreshments at the end.

What will you get out of it? Learn advanced Google search tips from a professional librarian; discover relevant research materials; network with other researchers; be a contributor to the Disability History Resource LibGuide; free refreshments.
