The Cambridge Academic Panels

We want your help!

Can you commit a few minutes each month to help shape the future of Academic publishing?

Cambridge University Press are recruiting individuals from a range of backgrounds and in a range of roles to help us stay up to date with the varied opinions and priorities surrounding academic publishing. You can help us to inform the development of our services, online platforms, and sales models and help us understand changing customer needs. Additionally, as a panel member, you can share your insights with peers across the globe, building networking communities.

What are the Academic panels?

The panels are online communities of people interested in the future of academic publishing. You don’t have to be a Cambridge University Press customer to join, as long as you are keen to answer questions and give your opinions.

What do panellists do?

Panellists complete one to two 10 minute online activities per month including surveys, reviewing images and card sorting. Each activity is based around a theme and is available for two weeks.
