January is a time for summaries and New Year's plans. We do the same at EBSCO Community. The year 2022 was our first full year of existence within the EBSCO Community. In addition to spreading the idea of collaboration within the library community, in March, we held an international discussion entitled “Open Infrastructure and Interoperability Panel” and in November, we held our first online conference “Open Perspectives Forum” where industry experts, community members, and speakers from all over the world presented their findings on open access, open source, open infrastructure and interoperability. It was also the time when we were able to share with you many articles prepared by community members and by EBSCO Community editors.
