Starting to get to grips with how this works, so here goes my #introduction - I work in the #education sector, in #WideningParticipation. I was trained in, and worked for years as, a #neuroscience researcher, looking into human #memory.

#introduction. I'm Andrew, a library director in London, UK.

I'm interested in how #libraries can support equity and #wideningparticipation in #highereducation, #workingclass lived experience of HE, #criticaltheory of library and education practice, and library leadership informed by #critlib movement.

My background is in systems, with a strong interest in #freesoftware. I prefer #Slackware as my OS.

Outside work, I am a #randonneur (#audax cyclist), mostly #fixedgear.
