On Friday, March 2nd, 60 society leaders and editors battled the drama of #Snowmageddon, the #BeastFromTheEast and #StormEmma to gather together at the Law Society in London, UK for our annual Wiley Society Executive Seminar. As the snow fell outside, our speakers highlighted the disruptive changes that arise from there being ever-more journals and articles, yet still only 24-hours in a day, alongside the continued pressures on library budgets and research funding, and the plethora of ‘new’ technologies that serve often to baffle or distract us, but could well offer new solutions to help learned societies and scholarly publishing thrive.
