United Kingdom

The dissemination of, and access to research has never been more vital. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen significant growth in the submission and readership of content. 

As a responsible publisher, we continue to adapt and accelerate our publishing output to ensure the latest research, evidence and data is as discoverable as possible. 

This poster session explores what this looked like in the UK, and within a global context.

Bloomsbury publishes a suite of digital resources including Drama Online, Bloomsbury Fashion Central, Human Kinetics Library and Screen Studies which are remarkable for their diversity of content types. Encyclopedias and book chapters are combined with play texts, image collections, video, audio and interactive tools to form immersive subject-based resources. This range of content types presents challenges for ensuring accessibility compliance beyond those required for standard eBook or journal platforms. I will outline the recent work we have done to ensure our platforms are accessible to all kinds of users, and the challenges we have identified in our future roadmap.

But the industry’s transformation to more openness faces obstacles. We examine some of these challenging hurdles - and some potential solutions.

Karger Publishers - Uncomfortable Questions about Open Access

Academic libraries are facing tough choices. You’re not only required to do more with less – less budget, time and resources – you’re also managing the constantly changing demands of faculty, students and researchers in a very uncertain environment. As the necessity for online resources soars in support of remote learning, academic libraries are under pressure. That’s why many are finding renewed value in multi-format, multi-disciplinary subscriptions. 

Find out how you can work with ProQuest to maximize your budget and drive better research, teaching and learning outcomes, even while facing an uncertain future.
