The Libraries also brings relevant issues to the attention of both the University and scholarly community at large. Strategies Recommend that the funding of campus information services be reconceptualized. Lead the campus in the management and provision of information access for all levels of research and study. Redefine the library by taking a statewide leadership role, emphasizing the role of librarians as people of access, not as storers of books. Lead the development of instructional and educational models and services for the state's library community.
All organizations require good management and communication.
The University Libraries seek improvement throughout the organization in both areas. Strategies Reorganize the Libraries' management structure as recommended in the 1991-92 study. Focus the divisions on the goals they share in common. Define the roles and responsibilities of associate deans and department heads. The changing mix of services and collection resources and the realignment of responsibilities require that the Libraries be able to make the most effective use of its space.
