This session presents a collaborative case study from the University of Southampton and Boydell & Brewer\, examining how trusted and flexible pathways to OA monograph publication can be embedded within institutional research strategy. Through participation in the Boydell Horizons programme\, Southampton is supporting early career researchers with structured guidance\, peer learning and publishing expertise. The session will reflect on the role of collaboration between libraries\, publishers and researchers\, and share practical insights into building sustainable\, inclusive and high-quality OA publishing approaches \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMegan Taylor  \n\n\n\nBoydell & Brewer \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nMegan Taylor is Partnerships Manager at Boydell & Brewer\, where she develops collaborations with universities\, libraries\, learned societies and research organisations.

Funders and research institutions have adopted various policies to incentivise Green OA. Yet\, researchers still appear to prefer Gold OA despite high APCs. \n\n\n\nThis session will review the results of a small research project exploring researchers’ perceptions and behaviours towards AAMs. It helps uncover whether trust in AAMs remains a barrier to adoption of Green OA. This provides evidence-based information to help shape communications and actions to increase trust in AAMs. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDelphine Doucet \n\n\n\nUniversity of Sunderland \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nDelphine is Open Research Librarian at the University of Sunderland.

This session introduces two complementary frameworks: PACT (Purpose\, Appropriateness\, Contribution and Transparency)\, a framework for making reflective decisions about generative AI use\, considering the researchers role and position within their research; and the TRYangle\, a model for evaluating information that combines fact-checking\, reflections on how information reaches us\, and our position within the information exchange. Through practical applications and discussions\, we’ll explore how these frameworks strengthen information and AI literacy while keeping human judgement and critical thinking at the centre of research practice. \n\n\n\nThinking with AI – Using Generative AI to structure and communicate research Simon Strange & Jenny McGarvey \n\n\n\nThis presentation will explore how to utilise Generative AI in a trustworthy manner to support the development of research projects. It will introduce elements needed to be taken into consideration when using Gen AI in a research environment\, concentrating on the PACT framework (Purpose\, Appropriateness\, Contribution and Transparency) as a tool for effective\, human centred utilisation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMike Jones  \n\n\n\nSouthampton Solent University \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nMike Jones is an Academic Engagement Librarian at Southampton Solent University.

However\, rising eTextbook costs\, evolving publisher business models and growing financial pressures are prompting institutions to question the long-term sustainability of commercially licensed teaching content. Libraries must balance affordability\, resilience and student access while navigating a rapidly changing supplier landscape. This session explores our response through the development of an Open Educational Resources (OER) Programme\, designed to support the adoption\, adaptation and creation of OER. We will discuss how a sustainable\, trusted service can broaden access and reduce dependence on commercial content \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHelen Foster  \n\n\n\nUniversity of Manchester \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nHelen Foster is Teaching Collections and eTextbook Programme Manager at The University of Manchester Library\, where she manages the Reading Lists Online service and the eTextbook Programme\, a long-standing service which provides access to core teaching material to students. Helen is now working to expand the remit of Manchester’s Teaching Collections services through the development of a student-centred\, sustainable\, OER Programme\, building relationships with academic colleagues to support open\, flexible\, inclusive and digitally-enabled teaching \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n14:40 \n\n\n\n\n\nTrust as a working practice in Content and Digital Transformation \n\n\n\n.Successful change is rarely just about systems\, workflows or data\, it’s about people and culture. Trust and rapport take time to build but can support having challenges conversations and implementing effective change. In this short reflective talk\, I will explore why building trust has become an important part of my role as Head of Content and Digital Transformation at Aston University.The talk will offer a practical\, personal perspective on trust as a working practice within library and information services. It will consider how openness\, consistency and empathy help build credibility with colleagues\, academics\, suppliers and senior stakeholders; how strong relationships support better decision-making; and how trust enables professionals to lead change without losing sight of the people affected by it. For a sector shaped by collaboration\, shared infrastructure and continual digital change\, I will argue that establishing trust is what makes transformation sustainable. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDeena Maggs \n\n\n\nAston University \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nTBC \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n15:20 \n\n\n\n\n\nResearch data management: Reviewing and implementing a new approach across a merged institution \n\n\n\n. The merger of two HE institutions – City\, University of London and St. George’s\, University of London- provided a challenge and opportunity to review research infrastructure\, workflows\, and systems. The aim is to deliver a new approach for the merged institution against a background of organisational change\, the upcoming REF\, and growing concerns in the sector about research integrity and trust: factors that gave some urgency to the project.The presentation will outline how the library took the lead in mapping and understanding ‘legacy’ practices and infrastructure across the two sites and identifying issues and opportunities. Research data management was identified as the first key element to be addressed. Existing good practice was considered as well as gaps and opportunities. More broadly\, it was necessary to reappraise the concept of research data in the combined institution\, including the variety of outputs inherent in practice-based research.As part of the process a research data ‘maturity model’ was created to document an achievable short term maturity level for research data management and how progress could be made. This approach has value to any HE institution and will be discussed as part of the presentation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCarly Lightfoot \n\n\n\nCity St. George’s\, University of London \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nTBC \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKen Chad \n\n\n\nKen Chad Consulting Ltd \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nKen gained his Master’s degree from the Information Science Department at City University in London. He is also an alumnus of the Warwick University Business Innovation and Growth Programme. He worked as a librarian before spending over 20 years in the library technology business. He set up his consulting business in 2007 to help make libraries and archives more effective. He has presented widely in the UK and internationally. Ken has published a number of open access briefing papers on library technology issues and runs Higher Education Library Technology -an open and free community resource. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n15:50 \n\n\n\n\n\nBeyond Resource Lists: Using Reading Lists to Build Trust and Improve Student Engagement \n\n\n\nBy combining curated reading lists\, strong academic-library partnerships\, and data-informed decision-making\, libraries can strengthen their role as trusted partners in teaching and learning while helping students navigate an increasingly challenging information environment. This presentation will explore how reading list management fosters collaboration between academics and library staff. Drawing on experience at the University of Limerick\, I will demonstrate how Leganto analytics and reporting can provide valuable insights into student engagement with reading lists. These insights can inform evidence-based conversations with academic staff about resource use\, assessment design\, and teaching practice. A case study will showcase how one business lecturer redesigned assessments to encourage greater engagement with reading list materials. The result – improved written submissions and credible citations \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJesse Waters \n\n\n\nUniversity of Limerick \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\nTBC \n\n\n\nJesse Waters is the Librarian\, Digital Learning Resources at the University of Limerick (UL).
