Some photos from #UKSG26 last week where the team discussed university presses, corporate takeovers, and implications for the future of scholarly books 📚

Fresh from @uksg.bsky.social , my thoughts on some traditional values becoming more important than ever

Big thanks to the #UKSG26 folks. Now: we rest (for but one night...)
A photograph takes across a conference stage. At the right and the front of the frame is a lecture with the UKSG logo. A slide can be seen on the wall at the centre of the frame, it reads looking back to look forward.
Thank you to everyone that came to my #uksg26 breakout. I was blown away by how many people came to my talk and showed their interest in my project, and it’s not even done yet!
As I noted to @kirahopkins.bsky.social earlier, I got a full-house on bullshit bingo remarkably early today. What is more remarkable is that @simonxix.com is the only presenter that I have heard reference the ongoing genocide in Palestine so far at #UKSG26.
We're exhibiting at UKSG. Oxford University Press.
We’re excited to be exhibiting at UKSG 2026! 📚✨
Visit us at Stand 8 for some coffee, meet our team, and help us choose OUP’s Word of the Conference. 🌟
Want dedicated time with one of our reps? Book a meeting - we’d love to connect.

Timely reminder #UKSG26
Right! Let's do day 2 of #UKSG26 (and not just to fill time before seeing @walkyouhome.bsky.social later -- I know... I *also* extend my pity to them.)
Cabells colleagues, Simon Linacre and Ash Rees, are at #UKSG26 today in Glasgow. Be sure to stop by Stand 27 to learn about Journalytics STEM, CompassAI, and more!
Reppin' my OBC peer and colleague @heroicendeavour.eurosky.social at #UKSG26 :)
This panel is going to be GREAT. #UkSG26
Lancaster's support for open research is not rhetorical. Engaging *with* researchers as partners is helping to build a collegiate culture for open research. Lancaster are also actively involved with and within community-led approaches to open research and OA. #UKSG26
Absolutely beautiful presentation from Andrew Barker and @tmorley24.bsky.social on Elaine Sykes. One of the clearest voices on all things open research in the profession; sharp as you like, and quicker than quick. Always missed, and never forgotten. Not even for a moment. Her work continues. #UKSG26
UKSG 2026 begins today! Remember to stop by the IEEE Xplore Stand #37 to learn about new IEEE initiatives and hear the latest news about IEEE Xplore.

In light of some of the talks at #uksg26 on open infrastructure, OA and similar - the following may be of interest ;)
(And if you're talking new products are UKSG, maybe keep this in the back of your mind!)
Looking forward to seeing lots of people at #UKSG26!
