Town hall meeting on the 'Big Five' negotiations
SCONUL is holding a Town Hall meeting for members to discuss developments in the “big five” negotiations with Elsevier, Springer Nature, Taylor & Francis, Wiley and Sage, being conducted on the sector’s behalf by Jisc.
The meeting will provide an opportunity to hear an update on developments from Anna Vernon, Head of Research Licensing, Caren Milloy, Director of Licensing and Sarah Roughley Barake, Licensing Portfolio Specialist at Jisc. We anticipate Jisc having received proposals from some of the publishers in question by this point, and the meeting will also provide an opportunity for members to debate and discuss the proposals in question.
The meeting will take place on Friday 18 July 2025, from 10am to 11.30am. Please email sconul@sconul.ac.uk for registration details.
