Here's a cracking read by Malavika Legge at OASPA on what academic libraries need and want from publishers. It's spot on! www.oaspa.org/news/the-fab...

@rouhiroo.bsky.socialReposted by @wisealic.bsky.socialLooking forward to discussing this today at the Netherlands Open Science festival!
@wisealic.bsky.socialHi there! The COPIM community is a force for good change. This article is short, but various reports we've published this year celebrate COPIM contributions more fully. See www.informationpower.co.uk/advancing-lo... and www.informationpower.co.uk/factors-infl... for example.
@wisealic.bsky.socialAcademic librarians! How easy or difficult is it to redirect a portion of library and consortial budgets to small and values-driven publishers in order to provide them with more predictable, long-term funding? insights.uksg.org/articles/10....
@wisealic.bsky.socialSmall European publishers face challenges in the transition to open access publishing. The problem isn't a lack of commitment, but inequities of scale. Read more: insights.uksg.org/articles/10....
@wisealic.bsky.socialEww! I was once on a trans Atlantic flight and the man seated beside me watched porn on his laptop for the *entire journey*. No one said or did anything. Me included.
@wisealic.bsky.socialWhat does it actually take to keep a digital archive healthy for the very long term? At CLOCKSS, the answer involves much more than storing files. We're currently looking for a savvy someone who would like to help us think about - and look after - a globally distributed dark archive. buff.ly/9WvGO95
@wisealic.bsky.socialThis looks like a cracker of a workshop!

@wisealic.bsky.socialThank you to everyone who participated in the #ipres2026 carbon calculation workshop!! You can find out more about the DPC toolkit here: buff.ly/cp2XlTy
@wisealic.bsky.socialVery exciting to see the DPC's new carbon footprint calculation tool for digital archives launched, and delighted that the CLOCKSS community played a role in its creation! buff.ly/2hbgyxZ #ipres2026
@wisealic.bsky.socialUnderstandable to be frightened and great that you can identify and label such a big emotion. Are there any things that you feel hopeful about today?
@wisealic.bsky.socialWow - that was quick! Colleagues at Research Information are as excited as we are!! www.researchinformation.info/news/chelsa-...
@wisealic.bsky.socialAn important post from Robb Richardson regarding digitization and preservation of physical books before Ai companies scan and destroy them.
Another reminder that preservation needs to be a part of any organization priority.
