Further to Monday’s post:

• Geoffrey Chaucer Hath a Blog (Take That, Gower!)(and also now a Booke)
• Wormtalk and Slugspeak: My life among the invertebrates
• Language Log

On The Future Of The Book c/o Open Access and what happens in real, actual research libraries:

• Laura’s Dark Archive, “Academia will eat itself*: the awkward love triangle of scholarly publishing” (2013-06-06)
• —, “Open Access – time for a review of the whole model of academic journal publishing?” (2013-03-01)
• —, “The OA Sting” (2013-10-08)
• —, “Open Access Realities – my notes from @UKSG one-day conference” (2013-11-27)

Of immediate working / professional pertinence, starting with a couple on everyone’s favourite kind of live interactive performance:

• The Naked Philologist: “On lecturing”  (2013-03-19)
• The Adventures of Notorious PhD, Girl Scholar: “Why I’m Never Lecturing on the Norman Conquest Again (an accidental defense of the lecture format)” (2013-02-06)
• Notorious also has a splendid series of posts on academic jobs and the job market, and advice to (post-)graduate students: mainly but not exclusively for graduate students, and very common sense, practical, sounds, sensible, and wise. Start here in September 2013. Then read the posts from October. Then giggle at the most recent post from November…
• On which subject of job market horrors, and advice to graduate students, see also the classic ancient post on here (2009-01-01)
• More positively: some discussion (old now) about medievalist blogging, on Humanities Researcher
• From Laura again, tips for better blogging (aimed at various sorts of blog, and with nice visuals)
• The authors of Geoffrey Chaucer Hath a Blog and Got Medieval interviewed one other by email and compiled those emails into a semblance of a dialogue, “On medieval blogging.” In Postmedieval: A Journal of Medieval Cultural Studies (2.3, 2011), special issue on “New Critical Modes”

For fun:

• Got Medieval, “Medieval Doodles: a Quck Primer” (2012-02-13): an excerpt:

• Medieval Fragments, “The Art of the Doodle” (2012-07-27)
• Medieval Fragments, “New Evidence of Note-taking in the Medieval Classroom” (2012-06-01)
• Erik Kwakkel (Tumblr)
• Sexy Codicology
• Digitized Medieval Manuscripts Maps

Next up on Friday (probably, unless I also post up some silly nonsense tomorrow, or something actually important pops up):

• The Old Talks Series: “François Rigolot: Renaissance Medievalist”
  Renaissance Society of America
  Montréal, 2011
