"The university and its library have been around for much longer than #BigTech."
What role can a university library play in achieving greater #DigitalAutonomy at a university?
Our director Marjolein Nieboer and communications lead @babetteknauer talk about #OpenAccess, #OpenScience and how we explore open tools like #Mastodon #PeerTube and #OpenAlex.

@Bibliothecaris@social.edu.nl @babetteknauer@mastodon.social apart, or maybe due to #Bigtech, I see another very important role for a university library, or every library for that matter. And that is to save (antique) books from being bought, scanned and destroyed by AI companies... https://nltimes.nl/2026/06/25/rare-book-dealers-fear-tech-firms-destroying-obscure-editions-train-ai-models
