Some say they represent an exciting new future (enabling the rapid sharing of research and democratising it), while others are concerned that they may cause misunderstandings and people drawing conclusions too hastily. It is clear preprints are now firmly part of the scholarly communication process, but some challenges remain. Join us as we open up this engaging discussion and answer your questions live. *Key takeaways* - The future of preprints in the academic publishing industry - Insights into the value of preprints for all stakeholders in scholarly communications - Challenges in enabling the rapid dissemination of research and how preprints can be utilised effectively ------------------------------ *Speakers* [image: Phineas Wenlock University of Essex] *Rossana Morriello* Research Support Librarian, Polytechnic University of Turin, Italy *Bio:* Rossana currently works as a research support librarian at Polytechnic University of Turin, Italy.
