Strategic initiatives and goals
The UCSF Library’s strategic plan represents the role of the library today and insight into where we’re headed in the future. We aim to achieve our goals through highly collaborative efforts that engage the key audiences we support across UCSF’s education, research, and healthcare mission areas.
Below are real-time metrics from the UCSF Library’s strategic plan.
Four initiatives
The UCSF Library’s strategic plan is divided into the following four initiatives, all representing the role of the library today and into the future.
- Innovative Technologies – Dynamic and collaborative research and learning experiences through expertise, tools, and platforms.
- Library as Educators – Expertise and resources to build knowledge and skills in key areas of education, research, and clinical care.
- Discovery and Access to Current and Historical Resources – Expertise, tools, and collections that provide access and navigation guidance through the changing landscapes of scholarly research, including rare, unique, and historical materials.
- Learning Community and Cultural Environment – Open and accessible environments that invite curiosity, collaboration, and innovation.
