  • Strategic Plan 2018-2021 1 Black Metropolis Research Consortium
    Strategic Plan 2018-2021 1 Black Metropolis Research Consortium Letter from the Board Chair and Executive Director On behalf of the Board of Trustees, Staff, and Members of the Black Metropolis Research Consortium (BMRC), we are pleased to present our 2018-2021 Strategic Plan! Sincere gratitude is extended to BMRC Board Members and Staff who worked diligently from 2017 to 2018 to ensure this Plan will aid us in charting our course. As a consortium created in 2006 with a dedication to the acquisition, preservation, discovery and use of archives and historical documents on the Black experience throughout metropolitan Chicago, we recognize the importance of “Sankofa” as a guiding principle for our collective work. Sankofa – a word from the Akan language of Ghana, Africa – translates in English to “go back and get it.” Like the Akan people, we move forward while remaining conscious of the past and the wisdom therein. We believe the past can and should serve as a guide for planning the future. BMRC stakeholders drew upon the organization’s past successes and challenges, as well as members’ prioritization of goals and an understanding of the future of cultural heritage professions to create a strategic framework for excellence. In our second decade, we are committed to implementing the Strategic Plan as a guide for continuing the work of BMRC, achieving our revised mission, and striving toward our vision. Core values have been included to keep our fundamental principles and beliefs centered in our work. Through consensus, we identified five priority areas to inform our strategic direction for growth and impact: education, collections, collection advisement, membership and sustainability.
