- Always impressed by my incredible @openlibhums.org colleagues - for their known, as well as secret, talents! This factoid was a lot more impressive than the trivia I submitted for myself - that growing up we had a pet sheep called George, named after George Bush Sr because my mum fancied him.

- And so it begins... 3 UK universities (Essex, Sussex & Kent) have just gone public about walking away from their Elsevier Read & Publish deals, despite Jisc's recently announced agreement. Expect to see more of these over the coming months. www.timeshighereducation.com/news/three-m... #OpenAccess

- Do take a moment to read the @openlibhums.org AI Publisher Policy. It's taken over a year to consult with editors of our 35 journals & get it right! Our Managing Editor @simoneverett.bsky.social has stewarded this consultation & also published a report outlining the process itself. #OpenAccess
