The Academic Book of the Future’s Principal Investigator spoke about the Project at The Scholarly Book of the Future, a full-day seminar organised by the Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers at the British Dental Association in London.

Sam explained the Project’s plans for the coming year, and invited comment and engagement from attendees.
