Thank you for joining our 2025 conference
06 June 2025Thank you to everyone who joined our 2025 COUNTER conference. We particularly want to thank our speakers for an excellent set of presentations. Speakers spoke about using COUNTER metrics in various ways with a common theme running through the event of using COUNTER to measure open access usage. Speakers shared innovations in using COUNTER alongside other metrics to build deeper perspectives of usage and impact. We also had an overview of the new validation tool.
We were delighted with the positive response in the chat:
“thanks so much – really interesting sessions” … “This was my first COUNTER conference and it was wonderful!” … “Thank you to all involved! Great conference, learned a lot!”
After the conference
More than 270 COUNTER members and affiliated libraries registered for the event and around 170 of those joined the conference live. For people who were unable to join live due to other commitments or time zone differences we will share the recordings with all registered attendees over the coming weeks. We also make presentations live on our website a year after events (see the 2024 conference recordings on our Events page).
If you attended the 2025 conference please fill in our very short feedback survey. This will help us plan future events.
The conference also included the COUNTER Annual General Meeting. We will share updates and decisions from that meeting once the Board have approved the minutes.
