RT @BVUKHistory: This piece was written by our former Chairman Cpt. Ian Fraser, later Lord Fraser, in our "Review" magazine Nov. 1917. He always had the men's best interests at heart #WWI #Veterans @Dis_Muse @DisabilityHistr @DisHistBlog

Its about archives, metadata, how to represent disability in the catalogs of libraries, but this important article will help make disability more visible. Its academic for sure, but we are delighted this work is getting attention. xitter.cf/JCASonline/status/9764…

On #IWD2018 I am remembering my colleague Anne Borsay, @SwanseaUni academic and founding mother of UK Disability History, from whom I learned so much. Her final article, on disability in #WW1 poetry, was one of her best: tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1… #dishist @JDisSoc

Anne Borsay is fondly remembered here & her book 'Medical Records for the South Wales Coalfield' is still heavily used, a student was looking at it for references just this morning! #iwd2018 #dishist xitter.cf/DrDavidMT/status/97167…
