Hilliers Arboretum 20 mins on bus from end of my road & never been before! Magnolias, camellias, spring bulbs, woodland flowers. Meandering paths & benches for listening to birds or reading a book. I’ll be back! #Gardens #Spring #Flowers #Blossom #Weekend

Excited to be launching Open Journals Collective today! We're working with librarians, academics & university-based publishers to replace commercial TAs with a community-led alternative. This is designed to save libraries money & tackle the rampant inequalities of global academic publishing. #UKSG25

Aha! Interesting list!
