Connecting the Knowledge Community
In 2019, Insights will be exploring the future of scholarly communication. We are interested in how new infrastructure and technology will change the scholarly communication landscape and better enable direct connections between research funders, institutions and researchers.
UKSG has announced that following an internal staffing restructure, Alison Whitehorn, UKSG Business Manager, has left the organisation. Alison has worked for UKSG since January 1999, and she has made a major contribution to the success of the organisation over that period.
UKSG exists to connect the knowledge community and encourage the exchange of ideas on scholarly communication. It is the only organisation spanning the wide range of interests and activities across the scholarly information community of librarians, publishers, intermediaries and technology vendors.
UKSG offers a wide range of events focusing on the challenges and issues relating to members and the wider knowledge community. Events and training are offered at different levels and form a varied and affordable programme of seminars, webinars, courses and workshops.
