And so it begins ...

Welcome back to LiveSerials where another year of UKSG conference blogging is about to begin. This year's team consists of:

• Bernie Folan, SAGE
• Bev Acreman, BioMedCentral
  
• Charlie Rapple, TBI Communications
• Frances Machell, University of Wolverhampton
  
• Ginny Hendricks, Ardent Marketing
• Kirsty Meddings, CrossRef
• Mark O'Loughlin, SAGE
• Nadine Edwards, University of Greenwich
• Nicole Harris, JISC
• Todd Carpenter, NISO

We hope there'll also be lots of useful Tweeting via @uksg (for the pseudo-official view) and #uksg (for the wider view, including occasional thoughts about the UK School Games). There'll be an experiment with taking questions via Twitter during Tuesday afternoon's plenary session on researcher behaviour. No doubt we'll be reporting back right here about how well that goes.

Blogging the UKSG conference can be rewarding in many ways but it's also a lot of hard work. If you're reading this, or any of our forthcoming posts, please do share your thoughts and appreciation with comments to keep us all going!

See you (really or virtually) in Edinburgh!
