Key Performance Areas
• Scholarly Communication and Research
Infrastructures
• Reshaping the Research Library
• Advocacy and Commuincation
Discussion in 6 groups
75 participants
General Comments
• People enjoyed engagement and would like to discuss progress
next years
• Positive comments on the general direction LIBER is going
• Make a clear distinction between strategy, operational plan and
organisational change
• Current economic situation requires more library cooperation and
enforces the need to make choices
• There are too many goals. Prioritize!
Other General Comments
• This Strategic Plan often confuses strategies of its
members and LIBER itself as a foundation
• Clarify how goals will be realized (SMART) and that
resources are/can be made available
• EC projects: focus on projects that are supporting the
strategic plan and not vice versa !
• Role of national libraries (and state libraries) not clear
enough
Other General Comments (II)
• Plan is unbalanced. Not enough attention for role of
library in education (e.g. Information literacy)
• Heritage collections and Special collections not clearly
present in the 3 Action areas
• Existing groups could have been involved in drafting the
strategy
• Organisational change of Steering committees is
questioned
Other General Comments (III)
• Aligning the strategy of LIBER with (partner) organisations around
us (eg. SPARC, CERL, Eblida)
• Balance needed between goals, voluntary effort of members and
available resources in LIBER office
• See that existing groups (eg. Architecture Group, Manuscript group)
are embedded in the new structure
• Articulate where LIBER stands for and present various choices as a
logical consequence of it (e.g. Why newTEL, Europeana, COAR?)
Scholarly communication and Reseach
Infrastructures
• Focus on research infrastructures = good
• Why building new research infrastructures? Clarify this
and evaluate results of previous projects
• Data management issues also relevant at national and
local level
• Importance of metadata is missing
• Single focus on Gold Open Access is questioned.
Scholarly Communication (II)
• Advocate massive digitisation
• Heritage collections could be seen as a research tool
and hence as a part of the research infrastructure
Reshaping the Research Library
•
•
•
•
•
This KPA is too much a potpourri
Leadership Seminar should be priority
Data management central skill to support KPA 1
Connect with library schools
Multirank study could be used as benchmarking tool
Advocacy and Communication
•
•
•
•
Goals are unbalanced. Prioritize!
Advocacy needed on use of mobile technology
Translation into 20 languages questioned
Can LIBER support 25 LIBER ambassadors ?
Resources?
• LIBER should promote that directors stimulate their staff
to participate in LIBER’s group work
• Strategic plan requires a Communication plan
