3 Goals And Priorities
The thematic analysis clarified three cross-cutting goals that the Office of Library Services, as a CUNY unit in service to all CUNY Libraries, should aspire for between 2022 and 2027.
Three Five-Year Goals
- Integration: Increasing library campus-based relevance
- Innovation: Supporting proactive efforts aligned with campus needs
- Centralization: Leveraging economies of scale and efficiency across CUNY
Six Five-Year Priorities
Six priorities for action emerged through which OLS goals will be addressed between 2022 and 2027:
- Student-focused universal access to libraries
- Institutionalizing path breaking and proven practices
- Cultivating information and digital literacy
- Supporting evolving notions of research and scholarship
- Dynamic and efficient collections and platforms
- Professional development and training for next generation libraries
The specifics of each priority, including rationale, five-year actions related to each of the three five-year OLS goals, and end states OLS will track to measure progress and impact are detailed on the following pages.
