After meeting the stunningly brilliant @heroicendeavour.bsky.social at #UKSG25, it was time for her NLISN colleague Amelia to take up the baton today. In her 1st ever in person conference talk, Amelia outlined many ideas, both factual and anecdotal, to showcase some powerful findings #LILAC25

A very insightful morning at the #UKSG25 Conference 💡

Discussions have covered cyber security, open research and the role of academic libraries in navigating the complex landscape of emerging technologies - very much looking forward to a jam-packed afternoon 📚 💻

3 things libraries should do to mitigate impact of exploit:

Regularly delete data

Regularly back data up onsite and offsite

Drill recovery plans and understand assets

Very interesting stuff

"High trust behaviour within a zero trust system"

Thank you @epicbayj.bsky.social! That’s such a lovely message and means a great deal! Sorry not to catch you afterwards as you were up and off to next gig but have a great #UKSG25!!

First work day at #UKSG25 is over 🥂 - stand out for me was the Library CEO with Tony Zanders, @jessicagardner.bsky.social and @kmdames.bsky.social talking about library leadership. Authentic, vulnerable and people-centred - a reminder that in a world of e-resources & OA it’s people who create change

#UKSG25 is in full swing and we are happy to be here in Brighton @uksg.bsky.social

Pass by at the @degruyterbrill.bsky.social bookstand and meet our wonderful team!

Great to see the @oipassoc.bsky.social stand at #UKSG25. Books & flyers from members such as @lsepress.bsky.social @edinburghdiamond.bsky.social @uolpress.bsky.social @openlibhums.bsky.social & even some new @ojcollective.bsky.social flyers! #OpenAccess

Some really challenging questions (and interesting answers…) around the ethics and inequalities around AI, really brilliant to see our @uksg.bsky.social community holding us to account. And our fourth panel member, ChatGPT is holding their own 😂 #UKSG25

Such a lovely sunny morning to welcome us to #UKSG25 in Brighton 🌞 - who’s here (UKSG) and here (Bluesky)?

Excited to be launching Open Journals Collective today! We're working with librarians, academics & university-based publishers to replace commercial TAs with a community-led alternative. This is designed to save libraries money & tackle the rampant inequalities of global academic publishing. #UKSG25

Alright #UKSG25 I've downloaded the Whovia app so anyone who's on Mastodon can find me if you'd like to have a chat about open stuff (or a moan I'm happy to have either!)

As I'm aware people see a cactus my 'real' photo is in that app so you actually know what I look like.
