We value an appropriately selected, managed, and preserved collection. We value the expertise of our library staff. Each of us, as library staff, plays an important role and contributes to the success of the organization. We value training and staff development. Open and honest communication within our organization raises morale and promotes efficient teamwork.
Progress comes with discovery and with experimentation.
We provide access to a broad spectrum of information and resources for the UCSD community to promote intellectual exploration and learning. Vivid Description We will be superb information providers. Our print-based collections of over two million volumes will be supplemented by direct networked access to information stored in repositories worldwide. Journal articles will be requested online and delivered in digital form to users' workstations within hours or even minutes of their request. Expedited interlibrary loan processes will become routine so that items not in digital form can be moved from campus to campus and into our users' hands in a more timely manner.
