When you arrive at the doors of the #library, it doesn't ask where you came from or why you're there. It doesn't ask you to prove you're worthy of admission. It recognises your basic humanity, welcomes you in and empowers you. I wish they made countries like they make #libraries

"The anthropomorphization of tech is harmful. It deceives people into seeing a human behind the text. ... And it abdicates responsibility from the entities that make and deploy these systems to the systems themselves." - Timnit Gebru, @timnitGebru at #RightsCon

Delighted that @uclpress has been able to provide a vehicle for wide readership of this important monograph on scientific journals @profgeraintrees @DavidPriceUCL @UCLopenscience
Open access publishing: wow! 145 sales would be decent for a traditional monograph published a few months ago, but we also have 5,600 downloads of 'A History of Scientific Journals'! Thanks to @UCLpress for the stats (Anybody know what happened in March??) @CRostvik @NoahMoxham

We need to move away from the formal structures of knowledge production to knowledge co-creation, to acknowledge the value of lived experience & different forms of communication, to move marginalised individuals & communities from research subjects to research partners. #KEN2022
