I had a wonderful time being part of the @imc-leeds.bsky.social team this year at #IMC2026. It was so rewarding to be able to help make IMC a special experience for the delegates, exhibitors, and performers. Now I get to watch the recordings of sessions I wanted to see but couldn't attend in person!
Our sessions have moved! Due to a technical issue with our original room, you can now find us in the Esther Simpson Building room 2.08 tomorrow starting bright and early at 9am. Hope to see you there at @imc-leeds.bsky.social! #IMC2026
Dr Ellen GallimoreI hope you've kept your Thursday of @imc-leeds.bsky.social clear to attend all 3 sessions of Old English in the Long 19th Century! Join us in Laidlaw Library Teaching Room 1 for nine papers on the impact of Old English language, literature, and law in the 19th century. #IMC2026 #medievalsky
Always a highlight for @imc-leeds.bsky.social for me. Absolutely love it when there's 19th-century books! Picked up Felix Liebermann's Laws of Edward the Confessor and Henry Sweet's Student's Dictionary of Anglo-Saxon (which I probably already have at home but it never hurts to have an extra).
International Medieval Congress LeedsWe're always sad to see the #IMC2026 Second-Hand and Antiquarian Bookfair come to a close! The bookfair will end today at 17.00. So grab a treasure while you can!📕 Our nearby souvenir stand in the Leeds University Union Building will continue to be open throughout the IMC.
