Did you seek out maps, signs or other visual clues to find your way? Navigation to or inside of a building—known as wayfinding—can lead to confusion and frustration for people. As in other large libraries, the Valley Library can present wayfinding challenges. To help alleviate some of this uncertainty for library visitors, a mobile concierge The Valley Library’s station was set up at the entrance to the Valley Library at the beginning of the terms for fall 2015 and winter and Northwest Art Collection: spring 2016.

  • Strategic Plan 2018-23 Oregon State University Libraries and Press
    Strategic Plan 2018-23 Oregon State University Libraries and Press Version May 15, 2019 I. Preamble The previous Strategic Plan (2012-17) for Oregon State University Libraries and Press (OSULP) garnered an official compliment from the visiting onsite evaluation team for the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities, the regional accrediting agency for OSU. This recognition acknowledges that strategic planning is a strength of our organization. OSULP still proceeded to work on and improve its processes for the next period covering 2018-23. We’re proud of adopting an even more inclusive process than previously utilized. Representatives from across the organization comprised the OSULP Strategic Planning Committee (Appendix B). Their leadership in directing broad participation ensured that classified staff and faculty members throughout the Libraries and Press had multiple opportunities to provide input during various stages of the planning process (Appendix C). There are a myriad of ways that OSULP could move forward to shape our future and have meaningful impact. This Strategic Plan charts the four broad goals that we identified for our focus in the next 3-5 years: 1. Excellence in services and personnel 2. Durable collaborations 3. Continuous improvement and experimentation 4. Responsible stewardship of critical resources We’ll emphasize several important internal and external priorities that we expect to evolve. To determine these priorities, it was imperative that we scrutinize trends as well as challenges affecting research libraries and university presses and higher education in general. We describe several significant threats and opportunities in Appendix A, but here are a few that influenced our priorities: • Higher education in the U.S.

Benchmark Programs in Six Other States B. Oregon Progress Board Publications Notes References Foreword The development and publication of statistical indicators of the health status and well-being of populations has been increasing in the United States and internationally. These indicators still have less influence on health policy than the publication of data about leading economic indicators has on business decisions. However, indicators of health status are attracting attention among officials at all levels of government as well as among private-sector executives making decisions about such issues as where to locate or relocate operations. The state of Oregon in 1989 began to devise indicators of well-being, calling them benchmarks, as part of a long- term project to improve the economy of the state initiated by then-governor Neil Goldschmidt. The Oregon Progress Board (OPB), a public body whose members are leaders of the community, business, and government, manages the benchmarking process.

    Doug Oxsen Oral History Interviews, December 30, 2015 Title “Raising the Bar for OSU Athletics” Date December 30, 2015 Location Valley Library, Oregon State University. Summary Interview #2 begins with Oxsen's broader memories of his basketball career at Oregon State. These memories include the quality of play in the Pac-8 during Oxsen's years as a competitor, the knee injury that he suffered during his freshman year, and the contrasts that he has observed between the culture of basketball during that era with what evolved later on. A major topic of conversation is Oxsen's recollections of playing against Bill Walton's UCLA Bruins and Oregon State's upset of UCLA in 1975, a win that broke UCLA's 49-game conference winning streak. He likewise comments on his interactions with Bill Walton in later years, as well as other noteworthy players against whom he competed. The session then shifts its focus to Oxsen's life following his graduation from OSU. These reflections include a discussion of Oxsen's two years touring the world with the Athletes in Action Christian ministry; his brief stint playing professionally in England; and his private sector work with Universal Gym Equipment and the BikeE Corporation. The remainder of the interview is chiefly devoted to Oxsen's return to OSU and his activities as a fundraiser with the OSU Foundation. Specifically, Oxsen details his involvement with the Raising Reser project as well as the construction of the Basketball Practice Facility, the launch of the Everyday Champions program, and the revival of track and field as an intercollegiate sport at Oregon State.

    Oregon November 6, 2013 Gov. John Kitzhaber Chairman The Honorable Harry Reid The Honorable John Boehner South Dakota Majority Leader Speaker of the House Gov. Dennis Daugaard Vice Chairman U.S. Senate U.S. House of Representatives S-221 U.S. Capitol Building H-232 U.S. Capitol Building Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20515 The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Minority Leader Minority Leader S-230 U.S. Capitol Building H-204 U.S. Capitol Building Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20515 Dear Leader Reid, Leader McConnell, Speaker Boehner, and Leader Pelosi: Almost a year ago, many of our citizens who work in the wind industry were subjected to an unnecessary series of layoffs and hardships because Congress failed to extend the wind energy production tax credit in a responsible and timely manner. Across the nation — from Oregon to Vermont — thousands of Americans working in one of the nation’s most important growth energy industries lost their jobs. We were witness to the hardships that over 5,000 Americans had to endure when they lost their jobs because of the anticipated expiration of the tax credit. After Congress passed the tax credit extension in January, the nation’s wind industry began a very troubled recovery. The clearest example is the loss of investments. In 2012, the wind industry invested nearly $25 billion. In the first six months of 2013, the wind industry installed just one turbine — a 99 percent drop in investments. This Congressionally sanctioned uncertainty has hit the nation’s wind industry incredibly hard. The current wind energy production tax credit is due to expire on December 31, 2013.
