Don't pose that question reluctantly! Pose it with vigour and force! Neither desire or willingness are static features. What the #copimconference showed me is that dial has moved on both - how do we keep it turning? what action(s) can we each take to turn it a little bit more? Scaling small actions!
This panel on experimental publishing futures which I co-chaired with @openreflections.bsky.social is now available to view in its entirety on the Internet Archive. #CopimConference archive.org/details/copi...

After a week in London at #R2RConf and #CopimConference my open research roadshow continues at a 'Scottish Research Integrity and Culture Week' event at @rcsed.bsky.social in Edinburgh where I'm on a panel to talk about 'expanding openness' for arts + humanities.

Now I am in the conferencing groove -- I will be at @uksg.bsky.social representing @copim.bsky.social!
Looking forward to attending my first UKSG, reconnecting with a lot of the people I saw so recently at #CopimConference and meeting many more folks in Glasgow!

Someone recommended this lovely experimental open access book at the #CopimConference and I added it to my training session on OA books today developmentserver.ravenspacepublishing.org/as-i-remembe...
Now the dust is settling after the excitement of #CopimConference last week, I've finally got some time to explore the hashtag & discover some of the conversations & summaries that were happening alongside the panels - fascinating to see what struck people & how much online discussion there was!
Many thanks to everyone who attended #CopimConference!
We hope that conversations were stimulating, connections were made and ideas were hatched!
The recordings & resources will will be linked from our website so watch this space!

Thank you for such a fantastic two days #CopimConference. The infrastructure work you have done has been transformative for presses like @lsepress.bsky.social but just as important has been the community you built and comradeship you fostered - and long may that continue.
Heading home after a really energising and thought-provoking couple of days at the @copim.bsky.social conference. Huge thanks to everyone involved for organising such an inspiring programme celebrating the valuable work done by both Copim and #OpenBookFutures 👏 #CopimConference
On the train home from #CopimConference - flush from meeting many of my colleagues (awesome) for the first time and lots of other rather smashing people besides! I think the future of open access and scholarly comms are in good hands, if this gathering is at all representative!
On the train back to Manchester reflecting on a fab #CopimConference - I received some very kind feedback about my paper and have made new connections as well as being able to connect with existing ones. So many enthusiastic & interesting people in the @copim.bsky.social community. Thank you all!
That's a wrap! Thanks so much to all who came to the #CopimConference, to our fantastic speakers & our wonderful hosts at Loughborough University London campus.
We'll release recordings soon & we look forward to taking the energy & ideas from conference into the coming months! 🔜
#CopimConference - that’s a wrap! Two days well spent, celebrating the spirit of the @copim.bsky.social community & enjoying time together in person ✨ Let’s all keep up momentum and continue exploring the future of community-led #OAbooks
What a bloody brilliant #CopimConference 🎉 Met lots of new pallls
As a PhD student studying open access and then an OA librarian I have been v disillusioned with the whole project but the work produced by Copim over the last few years has really provided something to enage with again #CopimConference
A call to arms from @rupertgatti.bsky.social for all attendees at #Copimconference to keep engaging with @copim.bsky.social and to feed into what's next for #openaccess & #openinfrastructures - join the Jiscmail! copim@jiscmail.ac.uk
To paraphrase @rupertgatti.bsky.social: ‘We have the important principle of ‘scaling small’. But to get to that point, you have to start. Start small. But have your ambitions to the roof.’
#CopimConference
And that’s a wrap!
We thoroughly enjoyed the @copim.bsky.social conference.
Being among like-minded colleagues and friends – all working on incredible projects – makes us feel even more strongly that together we can shake up academic publishing.
Chaos is coming!
#CopimConference
@copim.bsky.social now has to be the infrastructuring for solving collective problems around the future of open - start small, with the achievables, but aim high. This is the preface not the end-notes #CopimConference
Libraries need to get in the rooms where the decisions are made to grapple with this crisis and offer the open solutions that now exist thanks to @copim.bsky.social & Open Book Futures - step up; if not us, who? #CopimConference
I hope with all my heart that this isn't the last time these people are all together in the same place. #CopimConference
I've been so blessed to spend these two days with the people I worked alongside for the better part of five years. It's so valuable to be in the same room as all these wonderful ambitious open publishing activists. #CopimConference
Rupert Gatti will feel very Muir Gray to health librarians - "there is a crisis? Great" we can do some stuff #CopimConference
We now have more open infrastructures and open access publishers (born diamond OA) but we have a funding crisis in libraries (due to broader HE funding crisis) #CopimConference
Ending the #CopimConference: @rupertgatti.bsky.social on the power that can come with being frustrated w/ the status quo and what you can do about it.
‘Collective grumbling is really empowering!’ This is what lead to @copim.bsky.social trying to do things differently & create a more open ecosystem.
I owe a huge amount to @copim.bsky.social and the many people connected to it. The #CopimConference was a really nice way to celebrate the project's amazing community-led activity in open access books. Looking forward to seeing what you all do next...
