Hi PhD students!
Here are the notes from the Doctoral meeting in Umeå, sorry for the delay. Please don't hesitate to reach out to me or Camilla if you have questions.

Hi PhDs!
This email is about Umeå and the writing retreat next autumn.
In our up-coming workshop in Umeå we have a PhD-meeting on Friday morning (March 28) between 10.45-11.30. We have some things on the agenda, and if you have something you want to add please mail us. Of course we can also add to the agenda when in Umeå. You find the notes from our autumn meeting attached.
We know that many of you will be arriving the day before. We suggest an informal gathering somewhere in town, we can coordinate this in our Slack-channel: doctoralstude-ygp8402.slack.com (please let us know if you need an invite).
Writing retreat
Work is now underway to plan and set dates for the autumn writing retreat, which is offered to all doctoral students and is made possible by support from the Swedish Library Association.
In order to ensure that as many doctoral students as possible can participate, Anna Lundh has asked us to ask the doctoral students whether certain weeks in the autumn are booked by many doctoral students at the same time. One concrete suggestion is week 44 (Oct 27-31), so please get in touch and let us know if there is a week that does not work well for you if you want to participate in the writing retreat.
Hope to see you in Umeå!
Mauritza & Camilla
Hi PhDs,
The ReSource steering group had a meeting last Thursday. We raised the questions we discussed in Mariefred. The steering group is positive to reading courses across universities and encouraged us to put together propositions to present to the departments. They can’t promise anything but thought that it should be possible.
We also received happy news that the Swedish Library Association will continue funding our writing retreats.
Finally we remind about the ReSource page. In this page/subpages you can find the dates for coming activities, including the dates for our next gathering in Umeå – March 27-28:

Greetings,

Hi PhD students,
I’m sorry I had to cancel my trip to Mariefred, I heard you had a good time!
The meeting notes are attached, and please don’t hesitate to reach out to me or Mauritza if you have questions.
See you,
Mauritza & Camilla
Hi PhD students!
We have an upcoming PhD-meeting for the ones of us attending the writing retreat in Mariefred (our meeting on October 25th at 10.30).
Attached you find the meeting notes from our last meeting in Uppsala this spring.
This time we thought we could do a follow-up on the course information for ReSource-courses. We hope everyone interested have got the Slack-invitation from Nasrin. Also some clarification on the mailing lists: we have two lists, lis.doktorander and boi-nationell.forskarskola. The first one (the one we are sending to now) is only PhD-students, the second one is PhD-students and supervisors. Anette Trennedal, our Research Officer here in Borås, are the administrator and as such participates in both lists.
If you have something you want us to talk about, please tell us and we will add it. There is also an up-coming steering group meeting for ReSource that Mauritza and Camilla will attend. If you have something you want us to bring there, please tell us.
Hope to see many of you in Mariefred!
Mauritza & Camilla
Hello to you all!
Here are the notes from the Doctoral meeting in Uppsala last week. For those of you who weren't there, we've added some clarifying information. Please let us know if we need to clarify anything else and for those of you who were at the meeting, let us know if we missed anything important.

Hi PhD students!
We need short statements from you about the writing retreats (both the recent one from Varberg and the one from last year in Örebro). Anna will use these statements in a meeting with the Swedish Library Association, who are funding our retreats. We have funding for next year, and to be able to ask for more funding we have to demonstrate their usefulness.
Please send us statements at the latest December 1st (this Friday), they don’t have to be long!
All the best,
Mauritza and Camilla
your new PhD representatives in the board for ReSource
Hi everyone!
I'm sorry! I've been away and then sick since the retreat but have finally cleaned up the notes from the doctoral meeting in Varberg. I have tried to add clarifying information for you that where not there but let me know if things are hard to understand. Also, for you who where at the meeting, pleace let me know if I misrepresented something or missed something important!
I need any feedback ASAP unfortunately, since the next steering group meeting is in only three days (the 23rd) and our collective feedback from the meeting will be presented then.
Med vänliga hälsningar

Hej allihop!
The writing retreat is coming up soon and as before we will have a doctoral student meeting where we have the opportunity to discuss issues and ideas in regards to us as a national group of doctoral students.
In previous meetings we have discussed that it would be good to be able to submit things to an agenda for the meeting in advance, please reply to this email or email me privately if you want me to add something to the agenda. So far I have only two points of discussion for the meeting:
1. Me informing you about what's been going on in the steering group for the national collaboration (where I represent us)
2. Electing a person to replace me as a representative to the steering group (see below for some additional info about this)
Election of doctoral representative to the steering group
As discussed in the meeting this past autumn, I´ve been on the board for more than a year now and need to step down to focus on other things. Note that this is a representative position from the doctoral students that are not in the Resource Doctoral School. You guys in Resource will have a representative amongst yourselves in accordance with the stipulations of the grant from Vetenskapsrådet.
Being a representative to steering board is a good opportunity to get a sense of the national research environment in BOI, it is a good experience to put on your resumé. The steering board meets on zoom about once per term but it could be a bit more if things come up. It has been more meetings this years since we first worked on the application for the Resource Doctoral School and then collaborated around the recruitment of the Resource doctoral students.
Last time we agreed that if no one volunteered, we would rotate the responsibility of choosing a representative between the different departments. The rotating schedule used for hosting the annual workshop is 1) Borås, 2) Uppsala, 3) Umeå, 4) Lund and I would suggest we use the same one. That would mean that Umeå is next, but since there is not that many doctoral students in Umeå, maybe we could do Umeå and Lund?
I'm not sure how to go about electing someone but please think about if you are interested in the position in preparation for the meeting (especially if you are a doctoral student in Umeå or Lund). If you are interested but will not be at the meeting please let me know.
Looking forward to seeing you again soon
Best wishes
Zanna
