How researchers can maintain the standards of good science in a world of misinformation: The People’s Case for Curators

Posted on January 28, 2026January 28, 2026 By Critical Links No Comments on How researchers can maintain the standards of good science in a world of misinformation: The People’s Case for Curators

Dear friend,

Concerns about information overload, disinformation, and misinformation get a lot of attention. Meanwhile, the very people in society who work to the standards of good science to uncover reliable information and share knowledge, and who protect the public’s access to it – such as librarians, editors, research professionals, and integrity officers, as well as specialist journalists – are overlooked and undermined.

Join us to discuss what good information curation looks like and the principles that underpin it.

Figuring out what is reliable in a world of agendas, fakes, and contradictions is hard – and getting harder. We want the principles of good information curation to be more visible, respected, and protected, so that society can continue to rely on them. Join us at 16:00 UTC on Wednesday, 18 February:

You’ll hear directly from “public-good curators” and learn what you can do to build a public voice for good curation. If you have any questions about the webinar, please email me.

Best wishes,

Katherine Brown
Programme Lead
