The library teams had a great time with the #biketowork #challenge2025! Altogether, we cycled more than 4,300km - roughly the distance from Zürich to Dakar, Senegal. Although the challenge is over - we keep on rolling!

For the final week, we embraced the theme: "fake it till you make it" - enjoy!

Scientific publishing often offers too little value for money?
