Aberdeen's University Librarian @simonjbains announced our new rights retention policy today!

Seems niche, but is super important for fighting the supervillains in for-profit publishing.

Uni staff can no longer be made to sign over copyright to publish. All work will be made freely available to all in the university repository.

We have an amazing Open Research Team at the library 📚 🦸‍♀️ 🏆. Thank you!
