3/3 What's happening in year 3? We've started to edit Occupational Therapy. Why? 1) gets c.800 views every day; 2) it's been criticised as primarily about USA and needing a 'serious edit and rewrite'. See what you think

@ChrisAlterio Why not make early use of #OccupationalTherapy a topic for one of your fabulous blogs? This vital knowledge, mined from contemporaneous documents, could then be cited and shared. Please. Recommended

@ChrisAlterio Yes, noted recently as cited this book. Innovative, alongside Andersen's Facebook page for Slagle where she cites primary sources. Self publishing is relatively easy and economical, if don't count your time or need academic status. Big advantage is full editorial control!

@ChrisAlterio Source documents is exactly what we want to know about! Primary sources are our gold standard for evidence. Real evidence is found in original documents - minutes, correspondence, diaries, newspapers, photo, etc. Hopefully, it is safety stored and catalogued in archives.

@SaskiaGrassie Definitely! Another reminder of influence of World War I injured - including shell shock - with high demand for rehabilitation on an emerging profession. Sir William Macewen was a distinguished surgeon.

#MHM50 week 38: #MaryFrancesHeaton samplers. Mary was admittedto #WRPLA on 16 Sep 1837 after an incident at #Doncaster church. While contradictory information about her life was documented by others, Mary was certain of her own story which she stitched into her beautiful samplers
