Presentation of the day #UKSGForum2025 has to go to @littlebutfierce.bsky.social for her phenomenal film noir tinged take on systematic reviews. I have a new standard to aspire to in my future presentations now - look at these slides 😍😍😍😍

Starting off the schedule by talking about "Discovering the hidden insight between data points".
Starting off by stating that AI and technological changes aren't going to replace people - we still need humans for stories, context, unheard voices.

How are academic libraries expanding their roles through strategic collaborations and innovative services? Delighted to be speaking at the UKSG Forum in Brighton in December. Representing the work of my colleagues @rabryant.bsky.social and @libranomics.bsky.social.

We laugh but it is an important point. Librarians are EXPERTS. Never underestimate the importance of those "vibes". "We know the reading lists, we know the collection" Steph Gibson, U Suffolk at #UKSGForum2025
Fantastic opening of #UKSGForum2025 by @godwyns.bsky.social. "Without context, data is superficial, incorrect, even harmful"; "We need to be more intentional about involving communities" and "bring [data] to life with storytelling" - "Libraries are the bridge between academia and communities" ♥️

The crowd here at @uksg.bsky.social Forum is lively and engaging. And it had been impressive seeing their enthusiasm towards #participation in their projects. We are hopefully making progress on #community #engagement in scholarly communication. #UKSGForum2025

Halfway through, and I've seen great projects by libraries and institutions here at #UKSGForum2025, the spectrum of community engagement being deployed is staggering but shoiwing positive move nonetheless.

Data can tell one story, but communities tell another. There is hidden knowledge between data points.
Speaker has not said it explicitly but from a Sociological point of view I guess we're saying Qual (and co-creating research) is super important 😉

There's actually a talk about Open Data at #UKSGForum2025 - scuttlebutt is that it's very difficult to get talks about the wider open research agenda accepted.

The thing I'm finding interesting about this is if LBU are doing a deep dive into how to do this, are other institutions creating their own bespoke situation or just sweeping it under the carpet?

How to engage a community.
1. Engage early & continuously
2. Use mixed methods (more methods fill in gaps btw data)
3. Contextualise data
4. Use visual and accessible comms
5. Feedback loops
6. Measure the hidden
7. Overcome assumptions

We're getting started with #UKSGForum2025 - I'll try and do some live posting, but will probably get distracted half way through the day!
Already had a chance to catch up with some folks and learn about some new developments in the sector.

Apparently people get really nervous talking about systematic review.
Can start to cost a lot in terms of ILL both demand and financial!
Also, copyright. ILL says its for individual use, but systematic review is shared.
(The slides for this are amazing)

Post coffee break and a very sugary but delicious cake, the next talk is @kirahopkins.bsky.social from @copim.bsky.social
Building an info hub around open access books. It was massively overwhelming, so decided to create a hub of the existing resources

Big laugh of recognition and empathy at #UKSGForum2025 for Steph Gibson talking about limited systems and resources at U Suffolk. "No reading list management system - have a combination of Word docs and Sharepoint. We have to make decisions based on "usage data and vibes"." 😅
