The Library and Museums are welcoming places to study, learn, create and work. Staff provide services that enable individuals and groups to actively engage with one another in support of research and learning. Spaces, both physical and virtual, and the unique resources and technology within them inform our operations and enable us to meet user needs for intellectual exploration, entrepreneurship, creativity and innovation. Our spaces will be adaptable to different activities and priorities based on user feedback.
- Create, develop, and maintain inviting and accessible spaces that contribute to the University community’s overall success and student body’s well-being.
- Create environments that facilitate and foster collaboration, showcase innovations and scholarly achievements, and build partnerships across campus and throughout the greater community.
- Envision and promote physical and virtual points of engagement that break down barriers to accessing services and collections.
- Enhance digital spaces and infrastructure to support open access publishing, institutional repository growth, and the discovery of open educational resources, ensuring wide accessibility to scholarship and educational materials.
