OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Jisc and UK institutions are in negotiation with Springer Nature to reach a sustainable read and publish agreement for the Springer, Nature, Nature Research journals and Palgrave journals.
Please join Amy Warner May, Associate Director of Scholarly Resources and Professor Patrick Grant, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research, for an online meeting to discuss the future of this important publishing deal. The journals are heavily read in Oxford, and the new deal will be critical to making our research as accessible as possible across Springer Nature journals.
This event will be an opportunity both to discuss and find out more about the status of the negotiations and the outcome scenarios being explored by the sector. Background information on the negotiations can be found here: openaccess.ox.ac.uk/springer-nature-oxford
