The Beyond the Book? The future of academic publishing conference at the University of Nottingham (Sunday 24th – Tuesday 26th March 2013) starts this evening.
I am looking forward to the Manning Memorial Lecture by Professor Toby Miller, from City University London: ‘The Humanities Should Burn – So What About the Books?’
Tomorrow morning I will participate in a panel discussion on Open Access – speakers include Dr Jennifer Edmond
(Dublin), Dr Susan Schreibman (Dublin), Dr. Robert Emmett (Rachel Carson Center for Environment and Society, Munich), Dr Ruediger Klein chairman of the European Association of Social Sciences and Humanities and myself (City University London).
I’m grateful to Sally Bowden and Pat Thomson from the Centre for Advanced Studies, University of Nottingham, for the kind invitation.

My passion is creating opportunities for discovery, creativity and innovation. I am an advocate for enhanced access to information as a public good. I enjoy fostering engagement and openness, facilitating collaboration and mentoring.
My main focus is multi-disciplinary and involves practically and theoretically connecting the dots between varied, closely-related fields and topics: comics studies; human-computer interaction design, library and information science, digital humanities, scholarly communications, publishing studies, digital innovation and material culture, intellectual rights and open science, access, data and educational resources.
I love writing and spreading the word about the things I believe in. I love higher education and the Internet and I define myself as a digital scholarship advocate. I love working collaboratively and on my own. You can still follow me and/or contact me via Twitter @ernestopriego.
