Salford Authors Event

Salford Authors Event

*PLEASE NOTE: ALTHOUGH THIS EVENT IS FREE OF CHARGE, WE HAVE A CAPACITY LIMIT OF 100 ATTENDEES. THEREFORE, REGISTRATION FOR A TICKET IS NECESSARY. *

Join us for an exciting gathering of talented authors at special hybrid event.

In February we are launching our Salford Authors project. It was created to help us identify Salford-authored works and support researchers and professional staff in the Salford University community. Throughout the week there will be a series of talks which aim to demystify open access publishing and offer tips for those starting their publishing journey.

Join us on February 14th for the Love your Salford Authors event. Experience talks from a range of Salford Authors speaking on topics of their own choosing whether that’s their research, their journey to publication, or how creative and research practice is translated into their writing. This offers a great opportunity to learn about the different areas of research and writing done at Salford University, which we hope will build a sense of community for Salford Authors and foster future collaboration.

In the morning we will be in the SEE building in room SB0.11 from 9:00am to 11:45am and there will be free tea and coffee for all those attending.

In the afternoon we will hosting an online session from 2pm to 4:30pm. You can include the online event when you check out. However, if you would like to attend the online event only, you can register separately below.
