SUNCAT at UKSG

The SUNCAT team will be attending the UKSG Annual Conference in Glasgow next week, from Monday 26th March until Wednesday 28th March.
UKSG “exists to connect the knowledge community and encourage the exchange of ideas on scholarly communication. It is the only organisation spanning the wide range of interests and activities across the scholarly information community of librarians, publishers, intermediaries and technology vendors”.
Follow the conference through the UKSG blog at http://uksglive.blogspot.co.uk/ and on the Twitter hashtag #uksg

The 35th Annual Conference is being held at the Scottish Exhibition Conference Centre in Glasgow. We shall be attending sessions covering interesting subjects such as the SCARLET Project: special collections in the age of the app, and Digging for the unknown known: practices and promises around journal article mining.
It looks to be an exciting conference!

SUNCAT will be on the EDINA stand (number 32) covering all breaks. Please come along and see us if you’re attending. It would be lovely to talk to you about SUNCAT and other EDINA services.
