Regrowing Staff: Managerial Priority for the Future of University
Libraries

     By Lois Jennings (pp. 4-15)

University library directors are faced with the strategic problem
of deciding what their libraries will be like in ten years from
now and what will need to have happened within the next five
years to make the transition to the future.  A shift is beginning
to occur with the rapid growth of information technology,
electronic access to information, and the scholar's workstation
concept.  University libraries need to develop new missions and
services as retaliatory innovation to these developments and
shift from a production mode of service to a facilitator mode.
This requires reconceptualizing the role of the university
library, the role of the client, and the role of library staff.
New staff profiles will be needed, and the task of regrowing
staff through staff development will be essential to the
successful shaping of the future library.
