Feedback from October's webinar: "This UKSG session was GREAT. The
speaker was knowledgeable and clear; I learned a lot, took a lot of
notes on related literature to read later, and was really inspired to
think about the topic from a different perspective." - Erin Cassidy,
Sam Houston State University; 98% of survey respondents would
recommend October's webinar.
Thank you for your attention and your support of UKSG webinars
throughout the year. Season's greetings!
