My UKSG 2025 starts with Beth Bayley from Karger on their journey since deciding fo head for OA in 2018.

What happens when a publisher tries every path to Open Access?
Beth broke it down at #UKSG2025: flipping, hybrid, S2O, diamond OA, green, and more. No magic bullet—just real talk, flexibility, and community focus.

How do we teach Open Access to PGRs—who might be 22 or mid-career?

At #UKSG2025, Beth Montague-Hellen shared smart, practical ways to make OA training stick.

Researchers: how did you learn about OA?
Your story might help others.

Fascinated by this, anybody with a similar experience?

I think it was seeing a little gold padlock on an online article that announced it was open access and I googled OA to find out what it meant

Any Post-grad students here? Interested in knowing how you learned about #OpenAccess . Was it via the library?

At #UKSG2025, Sussex’s Pro-Vice Chancellor warned: uncritical adoption of AI risks undermining trust, creativity & equity in education.
Unis lead AI research—but are also destabilized by it.
At Sussex: new AI principles, communities of practice, & a focus on ethical, sustainable use.

Some issues with #GenerativeAI to bare in mind:
- Dangerous recommendations, misinformation, and deepfakes eroding trust
- Amplifying biases and discrimination
- Massive environmental impact from energy/resource use
- Lack of transparency and accountability
