Annual report 2012/2013 welcome

We are in the midst of an information revolution — an epic change in the way information is produced, shared and preserved. As we look back over the past year, I am proud of what we have achieved as we embraced the potential afforded by this rapid growth in technology and the culture of collaboration evident in today’s academic libraries.

Our extraordinary staff, with their deep expertise, creativity and dedication, have built capacity for far-reaching digital scholarship and preservation initiatives; acquired remarkable special collections, which digitization projects continue to make more available from anywhere to the world’s researchers; acted as partners in the dissemination of student and faculty research; cultivated partnerships with international colleagues to share specialized expertise and collaboratively broaden access to collections; engaged with our community through exhibitions, lectures and special events which drew participation from both the university and local communities; and through their own research, expanded knowledge about librarianship and information access.

We are moving into the new year with a brand new strategic plan, unveiled in October. The culmination of an extensive consultation process, the plan outlines our key priorities for the next five years — comprehensive collections, singular spaces, innovative inquiry, exceptional engagement and strategic stewardship.

I look forward to touching base again next year with news of our progress on these strategic priorities. In the meantime, I am always interested in hearing from you. Please feel free to contact me at any time with your thoughts and ideas.

With best regards,
