I'm 101TAD (Teresa) and I work at the Royal College of Nursing Library & Archive Service where I'm also the RCN Professional Lead on the History of Nursing.
If you're interested in the History of Nursing we hold significant collections on the history of nursing in the UK, with some fantastic resources available online [1]. We also run a number of in person and online exhibitions [2] and events[3] These are usually open to anyone, not just RCN members - they are also usually free to attend.
I'm currently working on the Wikipedia Nurses in Red project, encouraging nurses to engage with their history by creating and improving Wikipedia articles of nurses who have made major contributions to their profession.
I have worked with specialist library, archive and museum collections throughout my career and have a particular interest in women's history and women's activism.
