About the session
In recent years the globalisation and open dissemination of research has been a hot topic in the knowledge community - exploring issues such as how we support research dissemination and consumption across borders through the lenses of increasing mobility, technological innovation and diverse global open access, open data and open science agendas. In contrast the last 12 months have been characterised by a contraction in both political and economic terms. What is the impact of government policy, politics and the funding environment on the vitality of the scholarly communication ecosystem?
The 2017 UKSG One-Day Conference brings together expert perspectives from the UK and beyond to explore how the world of scholarly communication as we know it is changing in response to the huge political upheaval of our time.
