#UPWeek continues. Today we ask, what does our press do to #TeamUP?  In March, Daniel Miele visited two Dutch universities, exploring the shared challenges between publishers and libraries, and how they can support one another with the increased demand for #OpenAccess. 

Yesterday, we celebrated the 10-vol Edinburgh Companions to Global Christianity w/ @edinburghup.bsky.social. 🥂🎉 With us were editors Ken Ross (Centre hon. fellow) and Todd Johnson, and contributing editors Mariz Tadros and Gina Zurlo. #WorldChristianity edinburghuniversitypress.com/series-edinb...

Happy to have contributed an entry on Lois Weber for the WOMEN WHO DARED volume, now out from @edinburghup.bsky.social

Why do we #TeamUP? Because collaboration drives impact. This #UPWeek, we reflect on our title, Women Who Dared, and the powerful insights that each essay tells us about the conflicts, identities and power relations that women live today.
