Adam Matthew Digital Attends Inaugural Launch of Being Human Festival
Some 60 universities and 120 partner organisations across the UK will stage more than 150 free-to-attend public events, from Truro to Orkney, Swansea to Belfast, Norwich to Liverpool. The festivities will celebrate the breadth and diversity of the humanities in a series of nationwide events with venues including museums, galleries and cultural and community centres.
Located within MacMillan Hall at Senate House, London on Saturday 15th November, 12pm-5pm, Adam Matthew will be on hand to demonstrate Mass Observation Online, allowing visitors to explore the collection and to answer any questions about the project or their additional humanities and social science primary source collections from archives around the world.
