<p><font class="Apple-style-span" face="'trebuchet ms', sans-serif">The work provided a new point of liaison between JISC and the research community in taking forward important scholarly communication developments. The project provided quarterly reports to JISC which looked at current and emerging issues in research communication at a strategic level. A second strand of the work looked at advocacy to academics as one of the key issues in the adoption of open access, and we worked to identify the significant concerns and barriers to cultural change and adoption of new research communication methods.<u></u><u></u></font></p>
