Gold Leaf truly have their finger on the pulse when it comes to academic publishing trends, particularly as a result of their close collaboration with senior librarians worldwide. This is why we choose to work with them. I really value their professionalism and innovative thinking when it comes to running the De Gruyter’s Librarian Advisory Board, as well as their creative input and flexibility when running ad hoc research projects, writing white papers etc.

Gold Leaf worked in partnership with Lorensbergs on an important library project, carrying out interviews and providing written research. They worked diligently and enthusiastically, delivering information and insights which progressed the project and helped ensure its overall success.

I met Gold Leaf at an event when we were about to go into contract negotiations with a publishing house. We found their advice and expert support invaluable in helping us to decide the best way forward for the charity. We particularly appreciated the flexible, personal approach and clarity in the service offer and report delivery.

Annika from Gold Leaf managed a change project for the RCP journals. She came into a complex organisation with a willingness to take on all viewpoints; she has professionalism, expert subject knowledge, very astute judgement and approaches everything with practicality and pragmatism. At the end of the project, she handed over to the returning postholder in a way that made it as easy as possible – everything was very well documented and organised.

We found working with Gold Leaf very productive, and Linda and Annika were thoughtful, constructive, and friendly in their approach. Their final report was extremely detailed and presented a rich set of data that will be particularly useful. The recommendations have already led to concrete outcomes as we take the development of White Rose University Press forward.
