  • 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.

    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 STATE UNIVERSITY LFACT BOOK i.990 ',- - A- - 1 I I r. nrn j nD I ipiJgI_______dIl I I OSU's Library: A Key Component of the University's Mission for 130 Years Since its designation as Oregon's land grant institution in 1868, Oregon State University's library has played a significant role in fulfilling the University's mission. During the past 130 years, that role has necessitated constant upgrading and expansion of the library's physical infrastructure. The first college library was housed in a modest 5-foot-square room in the same building in downtown Corvallis that served all of Corvallis College's academic and administrative needs. The library received its first major gift in 1880 when the defunct Corvallis Library Association turned over its collection of 605 volumes to the college's Adeiphian Literary Society. With the completion in 1889 of the new College Building (now Benton Hall), west of downtown, the library was moved to new quarters on the building's third floor. By 1899, when the first nonstudent college librarian was appointed, the college catalog listed the library's holdings at 3,000 volumes and 5,000 pamphlets and bulletins. In 1908, Ida A. Kidder was appointed as Oregon Agricultural College's first professional librarian. She began a 12-year period of growth unparalleled in the library's history the library's holdings increased by 800 percent, its staff increased from one position to nine, and to accommodate these increases in books and staff, Kidder planned and oversaw the construction of a new 57,000-square-foot library building.

  • Get to Know OSU Self-Guided Tour of Campus
    Get to Know OSU Self-Guided Tour of Campus Oregon State University’s main campus is over 400 acres and has 121 buildings – needless to say you will only have a chance to see a small part of it! Tuition was $10 a term in 1870 when the first degrees were awarded to a class of three (one woman and two men). There are currently over 19,000 students from all 50 states and 90 foreign countries. 1. Memorial Union & Quad In the quad or on the front steps. In 1920 the students proposed plans for a Memorial Union to honor heroes from WWI. The site was excavated by steam shovel but rocks and dirt were removed by horses with carts. The MU opened in 1928 and remains a popular place with students today. The quad (lawn) out front often has information booths, live music, and students just hanging out. Go up the steps from the main entrance, then up the stairs into the lounge. There are two murals in the Rotunda as you go up the stairs: one reflects the sea grant studies at OSU and the other is a WWI battlefield in France representing why the MU was built. The MU Main Lounge (called the students’ living room) features couches and chairs for between-class studying or naps. All of the flags overhead symbolize a student or faculty member from that particular country. On the main level: Stop into the Bookstore (down the hall to your left) for some orange-and-black Beaver apparel or have a lunch break at the Commons (down the hall to the right) and mingle with OSU students and staff who eat and study here during the day.

    Jodie Davaz Oral History Interviews, May 27, 2014 Title “Student Media in a World of Change” Date May 27, 2014 Location Valley Library, Oregon State University. Summary In her first interview, Davaz provides a brief overview of her background, the birth of her interest in digital culture and the path that she traveled from her upbringing in northern Idaho to her undergraduate education at OSU. From there she lends detailed insight into her work at the campus radio station, KBVR-FM, discussing the progression of her own work as well as the culture of the station, its technical infrastructure, and its forthcoming move to new quarters. Davaz also provides perspective on the local music scene in Corvallis. Another major theme of the session is the decline in interest within the student body for the Beaver Yearbook and Davaz' aspirations for a new publication, Beaver's Digest, that will take its place. The interview concludes with Davaz answering questions about contemporary attitudes on campus, including her thoughts on issues of importance to students of the day as well as student perceptions of Oregon State University.
