next five years.Thisyear,we have a plan andwe are proud

to report that our FUTURE is taking shape. What will be different? In our aggressive

pursuit of EXCELLENCE, we will deploy traditional strengths in innovative ways. We

will focus our energiesand resources on FOURGRAND CHALLENGES, areas where

our unique expertise can do themost good in the world. We willcreate and disseminate

knowledge,and INTEGRATE ITACROSSDISCIPLINES bringing the power ofscience,

the aesthetic of art, and the insight of history to bear as only we can. We will embrace

21st-century tools to extend our reach and OPEN DOORS. We will apply our great

resources to enliven education. We will PRESERVE THE COLLECTIONS that

represent our heritage and the world’s treasure. We will partner with individuals,

institutions, and nations whose interests and PASSION match our PRIORITIES so

we can effect lasting change. The stories that follow represent just a few of the ways

we are turning our VISION into reality. JOINUS on the journey. Together,we canmake

BEFORE WE CAN SUSTAINthe biodiversity

of our planet, we must first understand it. Thischallenge

istaking on a new urgency in the face of accelerating

environmentalchange. The Smithsonian has the

breadth ofcollections and expertise to help endangered

speciessurvive and eventually flourish.

GLOBAL TIGER INITIATIVE

our biological resources,and the very fitness of our

global ecosystem,are diminished everytime aspecies goes

extinct. The loss ofatop predator especially wreaks havoc

throughout the food chain. Such is the case with the sleek

and powerful tiger, on the verge of extinction in the wild.

onlyabout 3,500 tigers remain in their natural habitats.

A centuryago, their numbers exceeded 100,000. The

Smithsonian’s national Zoo has joined The world Bankas

afounding partner in the global Tiger initiative,an internationalalliance of governments,agencies,and private-sector

organizationsthat have united to save wild tigersfromindia

to Southeast Asiato russia. illegal poaching and killing,

along with habitat loss,are the driving forces behind the

tigers’ disappearance. developmentand deforestation

have placed people in close proximityto tigers, resulting

in tigers being killed atan alarming rate. Smithsonian

conservationistsare leading an effort funded by The world

Bankto tackle this problem. one strategyfocuses on training

managers in the world’s tiger reserves on conservation and

monitoring techniques. Another strategycommunicates

the tangible advantages ofsaving the tigersto senior policymakers,and enlists theircooperation in cracking down on

illegal trafficking of tiger body parts.

“The Smithsonian is at thecenter

of a globalconservation network

thatconnects people working to

savetigersto knowledge,experts,

andmost important, to each

other.We aretraining the next

generation ofconservation

leaders, while governments and

non-governmental organizations will formongoing relationships to policeillegal poaching

and trafficking. TheWorld Bank

ADVANCING TECHNOLOGY israpidly

shedding light on the mysteries ofspace. Yet the sophisticated instrumentsthat increase our understanding

only fuel our fascination, giving rise to deeper questions.

To unlock the mysteries of the universe, the Smithsonian

hasset forth an ambitious plan of integrated research

that will address big questions about the history and

evolution of the cosmos, from our own solarsystem to

the earlieststars and galaxies.

FASTER, FARTHER, SHARPER, STRONGER:

THE NEXT GENERATION OF X-RAY TELESCOPES

Piercing the vast darkness of space requires powerful

tools thatcan detect even the faintest energyfromstars,

celestial objects,and events in distant reaches of the universe. The Smithsonian Astrophysical observatory has

already engineered some of the world’s mostadvanced

instrumentation. now, its scientistsare at work on the

next generation of X-raytelescopes that will broaden our

understanding of the universe. with a generous grant from

the gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, Smithsonian

astrophysicistsare developing novel X-ray opticsand integrating themwith new detector technologiesto give usmore

accurate images. The next generation of X-raytelescopes

will be more reliable,capture images faster,and survive

better in space. Their resolution also will be better than

current instruments. A collecting area expanded byafactor

of ten will let us see more and see it more clearly. This

enhanced telescope will help us discover how galaxiesform

and interactand help usanswer essential questionsabout

the origins of the cosmos.

WHAT DOES IT MEANto be an American?

In a nation thatisrapidly diversifying,the Smithsonian is

exploring events and conceptsthat unite us as a people

while honoring our varied backgrounds. Asstewards

of the nationalcollections and interpreters of the

American experience, we are continually expanding

our physical and online presence to presentAmerica’s

art, history, and culture in fresh newways.

POSTAL COLLECTIONS TELL A VISUAL HISTORY

Strange to thinkthatan objectas smallasa postage

stamp can tellastoryas expansive as America’s, butat the

Smithsonian’s national Postal Museum, stamps regularly

transportvisitors on journeysacross geographyand history.

Since the debut of American postage stamps in 1847, their

engraved images have served asavisual history of the

United States, featuring our founding fathers, national

parks, famousartists,and leaders in the fight forcivil rights.

Stampscommemorate our historyand document our

achievements. Theyalso get personal, delivering congratulationsand condolencesand conveying news between the

home frontand the front lines in everyconflict since the

Civil war. The national Postal Museumcollection holds

more than six million stamps, postal documents,and

objects,yet limited exhibition space allows the display

of onlyasmall fraction. now,asignificant gift from stamp

collector william h. gross willallow the museum to

proceed with a new 12,000-square-foot gallery, featuring

the latest in conservation technologyand adding space

for exhibition, education,and a welcome center. when

it opensin 2012, this gallery will offera new window on

the American experience.

“Postagestamps provide a unique

perspective on American history

and culture. Stamps andmail

arelensesthroughwhichwecan

view America’s diversity and also connect to the world. Bill

Gross’ssupport for a new

gallery and hisloan of threevery

famous objects will let usshowcasemore of ourcollections and

get a wider audienceexcited

about stamps — and through

them, our nation’s history.”

“The American public deservesthe best home possibleto display its history,

and in thiscase, it is history astold through stamps. By adding gallery

space, the Smithsonian can giveitswonderfulcollection a greater presence.

Every stamp tells a part of America’sstory, as do thevarious postmarks

and routings. And by loaning threevery rare postal objectssuch asthe

Inverted Jenny block, I hope wecan attract a broader audience and get

visitorsinterested in collecting orjust learningmore about history.”

WILLIAM H. GROSS

in addition to his generous support

of the new gallery named in his honor,

william h. gross is loaning three

EXTEND OUR REACH

OUR VAST COLLECTIONS are one of the Smithsonian’s top priorities.

Today, we have the technology to share our treasures more fully with scientists,

educators,students, and families anywhere in the world.

OBJECTS COME TO LIFE

over the next decade, we will digitize thousandsmore of our objects,and the information

that supports them,and make them available online. digitization willmake ourcollections

available anytime,anywhere. it will dramatically extend the length of our reach and help

increase access to objects too fragile to travel. objects willcome to life as we incorporate

sound andmovement,and the abilityto tag items with additional information will deepen

understanding. For the first time in our history, we will be able to connect itemsacross

collections, giving studentsand scholarsalike a more complete view of our holdings.

TO SUSTAINALEGACYof innovation,America

must deepen the competencies of itsstudentsin science

and math and increase their understanding ofthe physical

world. To forge bettercitizens, we must understand

who we are and what it meansto be an American. And

to nurture cultural innovation and creativity, we must

encourage people to produce art and literature. The

Smithsonian is applying its resources to re-energize

education in America, inspiring tomorrow’s knowledgeseekerstoday.Nothingwe dowill make a bigger difference

to ourcollective future.

SPARKING INQUIRY INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM

The Smithsonian’s potential to sparklearning is boundless.

what better object to communicate the inspiration of historythan the Star-Spangled Banner? how better to learn

about the importance of the world’s ocean than byavisit

to The Sant ocean hall? Every day, more and more of our

collectionsare going online, while some of ourcurricula

are used byapproximately 40 percent of the nation’s

schools. yet we have not begun to fulfill our potential.

The workahead includes bettercoordination between

museums, research centers,and programs,as wellas

upgraded technology. The Smithsonian has made good

strides in connecting resources to the classroom, but we

can do much more and also enhance learning beyond the

classroom. while we currently use digital mediato deliver

some of ourcontent, we have yet to translate the power

in the physical presence ofa 60-foot whale to a12-inch

computerscreen, wheremanymore people will experience

it. Smithsonian regent robert kogod and his wife,

Arlene, havemade a generous gift that will help uscreate

acoordinated, focused approach toward education. Their

gift supportsa Smithsonian staff leader who can redefine

ourstrategyto expand and leverage educational resources

for maximumimpact.

“Knowledgecan help ussurvive and live amore

humanelife. Knowledgesupports democracy

and helpscitizens better understand theworld.

And the Smithsonian has a roleto play in generating and sharing knowledge. Because of

Robert and Arlene Kogod’s gift, we will have a

seniorleader who can build a whole new strategy foreducation and public programming

and help us better usetheInternet and other

digitalmeansto deliver, develop, and foster

knowledgefor a new generation.We now

to promote the common language of art and creativity

and unite cultures through increased knowledge and

heightened understanding.

CONNECTING CULTURES

Forcuratorsand educatorsat the Freer gallery of Art

and the Arthur M. Sackler gallery,knowledge is the first

step to bridging the gap between cultures. Betteryet is

experiencing the emotionalconnection thatcomes from

understanding aculture’s story — the tales people telland

depict, the dances they perform, their language,music,

and film. on any given day, in addition to viewing a

superiorcollection of Asian art,visitors to the Freerand

Sackler galleriesmight find Tibetan monkscreating an

intricate sandmandala,asacred exercise that teaches

patience and tranquility. These same visitors might next

witnessa Cambodian dancer interpreting aclassic hindu

storythroughmovementandmusic, orattend a performance

bymystic Bengaliminstrels. Theymight listen to avisiting

scholar recreating wondrousancient temples in the mind’s

eye, or even work with staff to create their own origami

flowers inspired byJapanese ceramics. Manyadditional

onsite and online exhibitionsand cultural programsat the

galleries engage visitors in other ways, deepening their

awarenessand appreciation of othercultures. recently, the

galleries received help in accomplishing their workthrough

an unrestricted endowment gift from Jeffrey Cunard,a

formerchairman of the galleries’advisory board. initially,

the gift will benefit Southeast Asian art, but his broader

intent isto allow the Freerand Sackler galleriesthe freedom

to deploytheir resources where theyaremost needed.

“Our goal isfor peopleto be

entranced by the art they

encounterin ourmuseums, and

intrigued by a glimpse of living

cultural traditions.We want

peopleto bemoved, and to have

TO MAINTAIN AN ORGANIZATION

that isresponsive to the needs of the public and our

stakeholders and makesthe best use of our great

resources, the Smithsonian must first build an innovative and agile culture that is based on collaboration

across boundaries, both internal and external. This

requires usto employ the best tools and technology to

connect people with information quickly and efficiently,

a criticalstep in speeding the transfer of knowledge.

TECHNOLOGY PROMOTES ORGANIZATIONAL EXCELLENCE

inmore than 160 years ofsharing knowledge with the world,

the Smithsonian has embraced excellence inmanyforms: in

the scope and depth of our collections; in the caliberand

expertise of ourcurators, scientists,and educators;and in

the quality of the relationships we build with global partners. while ourmission remains the same, we continually

seekthe best tools to fulfill it. The Smithsonian is turning

to emerging technologies to enable collaboration and

information sharing, streamline organizational processes,

and provide a new standard in transparencyand accountability. For scholars to collaborate online with Smithsonian

researchers, for expertsacross the institution to work

together onmission-critical projects,and for our leaders

to communicate objectivesand track performance, we

must build an internal infrastructure to support the rapid

transfer of information. Microsoft Corporation’s generous

contribution of its SharePoint® software,an integrated

suite ofapplications, is enabling Smithsonian staff to share

knowledge and collaborate across disciplinesandmuseums,

accessing information and communicating online to tackle

complex problems. once we master these internalconversations, we will broaden our scope and technologies to

include the external world in a digital dialogue.

“Microsoft’s gift of SharePoint

licenses willenable usto break

down walls between information

and expertise and build one Smithsonian. Imagine a world

in which scientists,curators, and educatorsfromaround the world can collaborate with

Smithsonian experts,sharing

information, images, and discus- sions asif they werein thesame building. Pan-Institutional teams

will be ableto plan and execute

exhibitions and other projects

more quickly. By first allowing

information sharing internally, SharePointwill ultimately engage

people across boundaries

and disciplines, advancing the

increase and diffusion of knowledge. It is a great leap forward.”

BOARD OF REGENTS

The Smithsonian is the world’s largest

museum and research complex, with 

nineteen museums and the National Zoo,

as well as research centers around the

world. It was created by Congress in 

1846 under the terms of the will of James

Smithson of England, who in 1826

bequeathed his property to the United

States of America “to found at Washington,

under the name of the Smithsonian

Institution, an establishment for the

increase and diffusion of knowledge.”

Congress vested responsibility for 

administration of the Smithsonian 

in the Board of Regents.
