We have been asked to provide clarity on the REF2029 position on trade books. We confirm that trade books are out of scope in the REF2029 Open Access Policy and are therefore not subject to open access requirements. The consultation and website are updated ref.ac.uk/guidance/ref-2029-…

.@LizzieGadd discusses @CoARAssessment, notes that #REF2028 moves towards more responsible research assessment, & cautions that good intentions can lead to unintended consequences, so it is important to listen to community feedback
UCL REF retweeted
When it comes to measuring research culture, @stevenhill @ResEngland says it is important to reflect on the fact that change, & the direction of change, is probably more important than overall performance on research culture, or at least needs to be considered alongside #REF2028
UCL REF retweeted
Speaking on behalf of @CoARAssessment, @LizzieGadd positions reforms to #REF2028 within wider global moves towards responsible research assessment.
