t’s an exciting time at the Emory Libraries. As Emory reaches the end of its 2005–2015 strategic plan, the libraries are preparing for the next planning cycle as essential partners and contributors to Emory’s academic enterprise. To outline our future directions, we created a roadmap identifying goals and action items to build foundation and move the library forward, focusing primarily on our strengths and value to the campus community. In the development of the roadmap, we undertook an inclusive process across all libraries, led by the university’s Office of Learning and Organizational Development. Our work and discussions throughout the process resulted in the creation of a new mission and vision, guiding principles, and values. In this publication, we outline the framework, speak to some associated achievements, and share stories that showcase our commitment, contributions, and engagement. In addition, we have included a number of projects recently completed and also shared progress for some of our new initiatives. These projects, initiatives, and accomplishments include the renovation of the Robert W. Woodruff Library’s Level 10 and the naming of the Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library along with the preparation and year-end implementation of Alma, a next-generation library services system. We initiated the planning to enhance our digital library program and the preservation of our digital assets, and we completed the construction of the Library Service Center in collaboration with the Georgia Institute of Technology, resulting in the creation of a “shared collection” accessible to both institutions. The organizational framework for the libraries’ program appears on page 2, and this document highlights our efforts in 2015 toward building foundation and capacity for each. Informative bits and bytes throughout should pique your interest regarding our activities and resources. As always, we appreciate your interest and support.

E M O R Y L I B R A R I E S O R G A N I Z AT I O N A L F R A M E WO R K We completed a lengthy, inclusive process to develop a strategic roadmap for the next two years. The framework conveys our vision, mission, values, and guiding principles, as well as programmatic themes and goals. THE EMORY LIBRARIES STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK FOR 2015–2017
MISSION w Preserve and promote our intellectual and cultural heritage w Initiate and implement creative and impactful uses of technology w Deliver and produce useful and distinctive services, information, and content w Cultivate an organizational culture of professional development, agility, and innovation w Engage as partners in the academic enterprise to advance student and faculty success w Create diverse and engaging environments for work, production, study, and intellectual and social engagement
VISION Emory Libraries are recognized as an intellectual center, transforming teaching, learning, research, and patient care through innovative resources, services, and collections for the campus community and beyond.
VA L U E S w excellence in teaching, learning, and scholarship
w diversity and inclusion
w stewardship and preservation
w innovation and continuous learning
w collaboration and partnership
w ethics and integrity
As part of our planning process, we identified four programmatic themes as our primary focus for the next two years: • • • •
Organizational Development and Culture Infrastructure and Innovation Collaboration and Engagement Community and Customer Focus
We named goals for each of these, which will assist in building a solid foundation, enhance our engagement with the campus and broader community, and advance the success of students, faculty, and staff. Those goals are highlighted throughout this publication.

ur first programmatic theme is organizational development and culture. As we developed our strategic framework, we identified crucial action items necessary to reinforce and augment the
skills and strengths of our staff. In addition, we noted areas to expand and enhance the libraries’ culture of assessment, innovation, diversity and inclusion, and wellness. All areas are requisite to our success, will enrich our environment, and increase our ability to serve our students and faculty.

The landscape is changing swiftly for libraries and higher education. To remain effective and develop new resources, services, and tools, staff will need to adapt quickly. With this in mind, we will focus on professional development opportunities to increase knowledge and abilities and shift our reactions to new ideas and emerging technologies that advance research and scholarship. We will work to foster employee innovation by encouraging risk taking and providing more opportunities to share ideas and engage in discussion regarding new trends and developments.
O R G A N I Z AT I O N A L DEVELOPMENT AND C U LT U R E G OA L S : w Build an organizational framework w Create and identify professional development opportunities for staff
w Outline the organizational structure Through our efforts, we hope to build a deeper understanding of our organizational capacity, structure, roles, expectations, and responsibilities. And with each achievement, we will celebrate our success and recognize significant contributions and the advancement of the organization.
w Foster an inclusive environment w Build an organizational culture of innovation
“Whether you are looking for a quiet spot or a collaborative environment, you can find it in the library. It’s a great place to meet people, and being in the center of campus makes it a good location for everyone.” P H I L B E A R D S L E Y , junior, business major

ur second strategic theme, Infrastructure and Innovation, focuses on ensuring that the libraries’ environment adapts to the diversity of its clientele, that our infrastructure effectively and intuitively facilitates discovery, and that our resources and tools inspire creativity and new forms of scholarship. The following projects demonstrate this theme. The Digital Library Program is a new, collaborative initiative to provide services and promote best practices related to creating, managing, preserving, and delivering Emory’s unique digital assets and collections. A key offering of the program is to build a versatile and feature-rich digital repository platform using the open-source Hydra framework. Emory increasingly creates, acquires, and manages unique and rare content in many formats such as student theses, archival manuscripts, research data, scrapbooks, photographs, videos, maps, and 3D objects. Whether these items are “born-digital” or digitized, the Digital Library Program will provide services, staffing, and systems to support longterm access to these materials.
The Woodruff Health Sciences Center Library is working with the libraries’ Digitization Services to digitize threedimensional artifacts from its Historical Collections and Calhoun Collection. Approximately 170 artifacts will be made available digitally to researchers. Additionally, with support from a Save America’s Treasures grant, the Rose Library preserved and digitized 51 historically significant scrapbooks in its African American collections. The Emory Open Education Initiative encourages faculty members and instructors to create and use open educational resources (OERs) and library materials to support their courses by offering mini-grants of $1,000 each. The grants may be used to create or compile OERs, library materials, or faculty-generated content to be used in courses in lieu of a textbook. The goal is to find better and less costly ways to deliver instructional content. The 2014 pilot included eight faculty members for seven courses, and the 2015 group included five faculty members for five courses from across campus, including Oxford College. For more information, see scholarblogs. emory.edu/eoei/about/. In December 2015 our libraries are migrating to a next-generation, cloud-based resource-management system called Alma. Our staff has been working behind the scenes for 15 months to implement this modernized system, which will consolidate processes and manage our millions of print and electronic resources in a more integrated way.
“Being able to work with the OER team has enabled me to change the way our students see families and improve the questions they ask patients. The depth of knowledge of the OER team made this process so much more streamlined than I imagined, and the resources they offered are excellent.” KARLENE COLEMAN Clinical Instructor, Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing Certified Genetic Counselor, Children’s Healthcare Marcus Autism Center

Wireless school-wide printing services and a new multimedia lab equipped with high-end software are now available for students this semester, due to the efforts of Student Digital Life (SDL). The MediaLab is located on the 4th floor of the Woodruff Library adjacent to the Marian K. Heilbrun Music and Media Library. SDL also created Student Technology Support services on Woodruff’s 1st floor and in Cox Hall opened the new TechLab, a research and development space that provides tools for 3D printing. In the area of preservation, our conservation team took on the large-scale project of treating more than 400 individual items from the collections of African American intellectuals Sarah E. Wright, Almena Lomax, and Mildred Thompson this past year to safeguard these materials for future researchers.

ur third strategic theme reflects our dedication to collaboration and engagement. Collaboration is essential to leverage resources, expand knowledge and expertise, and provide the best possible services to our users. We strive to be embedded and engaged in Emory’s academic enterprise, which includes our desire to partner and contribute to teaching and the creation and dissemination of knowledge for students and scholars. One major example of our collaborative approach is the newly constructed Library Service Center (LSC). In partnership with the Georgia Institute of Technology, the LSC is a state-of-the-art environment built to preserve collections for current and future generations. Construction is complete and ingest is moving forward. The activities associated with this initiative cross library and organizational cultures as
well as build upon the development of policies and procedures to establish a “shared” collection retrospectively and prospectively across both institutions. The center, located on 4.6 acres of Emory’s Briarcliff property, will provide a single offsite location for collections from all Emory libraries. Expanded electronic access will offer faster and more efficient service, while enhanced preservation and security provisions will provide better protection for the collections. Faculty and student engagement is another essential aspect of our focus on collaboration. The Libraries’ Undergraduate Research Award is selected by a panel of judges and recognizes and rewards undergraduates who make extensive use of collections and research resources in their original scholarship and show evidence of critical analysis in their research skills. Faculty who sponsored this year’s winners included Carol Anderson, Department of African American Studies, and Elena Conis, Department of History. Library staff served as judges, along with faculty members Megan Cole, Department of Biology; Scott Lilienfeld, Department of Psychology; and Mandy Suhr-Sytsma, Department of English.

Which test most accurately confirms the diagnosis of a specific condition? Which treatment will provide the best outcomes for a patient? During patient care, clinicians need to efficiently find and select appropriate, high-quality studies. Informationists at the Woodruff Health Sciences Center Library collaborate with faculty in the Departments of Medicine and Emergency Medicine to assess residents’ skills at finding and selecting published literature to answer clinical questions and provide training to help residents develop a proficiency in these skills. For the Department of Medicine, clinical informationists assess information-seeking skills at the beginning of the first postgraduate year, providing customized feedback to each resident and tailored training sessions to help them improve their performance. At the year’s end, the residents complete a performance assessment for the benefit of the residency program’s leadership. In the Department of Emergency Medicine’s evidence-based medicine module, informationists conduct a preassessment of residents’ skills in order to customize instruction sessions.
C O L L A B O R AT I O N A N D E N G AG E M E N T G OA L S w Address the changing work of our users
w Develop and implement collaborative service models
w Support the Quality Enhancement Program
w Build collaboration with Georgia Tech to include the Library Service Center
w Promote faculty scholarship and Other projects that exemplify our dedication to collaboration and engagement include:
professional activities
w Support research data management • Our support of Emory’s Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP), a first-year student experience focusing on the topic “The Nature of Evidence: How Do You Know?” The QEP illuminates the myriad ways evidence is used across academic departments. Library representatives are currently serving on key committees tasked with implementing this initiative, which was developed to maintain the university’s high accreditation standards and enhance students’ ability to engage with evidence in a scholarly manner. • The Archives Research Program, a collaborative effort between Emory’s libraries and the Laney Graduate School, is for graduate students who want to strengthen their skills in using and understanding archives and special collections. • The Goizueta Business Library is now fully integrated into the content development and instruction for the business school’s critical thinking and experiential learning–focused Management Practice classes.
“The Goizueta Business librarians are true partners in my Global Macroeconomic Perspectives MBA courses. The librarians participate as near-members of the project teams to ensure that the students identify credible data and properly structure the semester-long research effort.” JEFF ROSENSWEIG Associate Professor, Finance, Goizueta Business School

he final strategic theme underscores the importance of connecting with our community and customers. We are dedicated to providing diverse environments and a broad array of programming for social and intellectual engagement and interaction for the university and broader community. Numerous programs showcase our efforts to build awareness of our collections, support teaching, and inspire discussion and new ideas. Emory Libraries released an on-demand Coursera course available to learners worldwide—From Freedom Rides to Ferguson: Narratives of Nonviolence in the American Civil Rights Movement. Taught by former Candler School of Theology Distinguished Scholar in Residence Bernard LaFayette Jr., the course offers learners an inside look at LaFayette’s experiences as a civil rights activist and leader
and highlights his lifetime mission of institutionalizing and internationalizing the nonviolent principles and strategies of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. For more information, see coursera.og/learn/nonviolence. This summer we launched a major effort to develop a master planning process intended to gather and analyze quantitative and qualitative data for spaces and services identified as “in scope” across the libraries. The planning outcome will inform the development of a phased approach to create dynamic and collaborative spaces across campus for study, teaching, research, project development, and discourse. Our master-planning process will engage a broad range of stakeholders in the creation of a programmatic vision for the enhancement and expansion of library spaces.

COMMUNITY AND C U S TO M E R F O C U S G OA L S w Build our advocacy community w Enhance internal and external communication strategies We completely renovated our Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library (above) and renamed it the Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library in honor of alumnus and literary benefactor Stuart A. Rose. The transformed and expanded space made its public debut in August after 14 months of construction. The Rose Library offers sweeping views of the campus and Atlanta, as well as state-of-the-art access to more than 150,000 print titles and nearly 1,350 collections with material measuring more than 15,000 linear feet (or nearly three miles’ worth of boxes).

This Kobe Collection–associated course and planned exhibition is enabling students to undertake a historical examination of Japanese culture from the 1890s by being the first to catalog these artifacts that were part of the original Emory Museum on the Oxford campus. Led by faculty member Cheryl Crowley, the course incorporated content from the Oxford, Pitts Theology, and Rose Library collections.
“ It’s a real honor to be working with these fascinating materials from Oxford; my students are thrilled to be working with such a great team of people and learning about the historic connections between Oxford and Japan.” CHERYL CROWLEY Associate Professor, Japanese Language and Literature Director, East Asian Studies Program

EXHIBITIONS AND COLLECTIONS

ur dynamic exhibitions spotlight our collections and create learning opportunities for faculty, students, staff, and visitors. Our “It’s in the Cards” interactive exhibit allows faculty, students, and staff to transform thousands of discarded and outdated catalog cards into art and poetry. Sponsored in part by a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation through the Emory College Center for Creativity & Arts, the
project is turning these relics of an old-fashioned system for finding books into a colorful, communal canvas. More than 20 exhibits at various locations highlighted our collections. “Pioneer of Vascular Surgery: Daniel C. Elkin, MD” focused on Elkin’s life and his contributions to Emory; “Before Ebola: The US Government’s Role in Controlling Contagious Disease” spotlighted the government documents collection; and “Revealing Her Story: Documenting African American Women Intellectuals” offered a look into nine distinctive women in the arts whose papers were processed with funding from a National Historical Publication and Records Commission grant. “Bobby Jones: The Game of Life” opened in the Woodruff Library’s Schatten Gallery. A condensed version traveled to St Andrews, Scotland, where it attracted crowds during the Open Championship. “The Struggle Continues: The Southern Christian Leadership Conference’s Fight for Social Change,” which debuted in the Schatten Gallery in 2013, spent time at the Levine Museum of the New South in Charlotte, North Carolina, where approximately 25,000 visitors viewed it.

An Emory alumnus with a degree from Goizueta Business School, STUART A. ROSE fell in love with rare books as a result of interactions with longtime Emory administrator Bill Fox. During the past two decades, Rose has been a patron and benefactor of the Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library. Founder and executive chair of REX American Resources Corporation, an alternative-energy company based in Dayton, Ohio, Rose (shown here with his wife, Mimi) nurtured his passion for collecting rare books and decided to show his gratitude and support with a major donation, which resulted in Emory gratefully naming the newly renovated Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library the Rose Library in his honor. Rose’s investment has transformed it into a world-class facility.
“Over the last 20 years, Emory has done more than any other place I know of to develop and enhance its rare book library. I’m very honored to be associated with the people and the collections there.” STUART A. ROSE 76B
Recipient of the 2015 Turman Award, an honor bestowed on Emory alumni for their outstanding volunteerism to Emory, KATHY TOMAJKO spent 25 years in the Georgia Tech library, where she fostered collaboration between Emory and Tech that has helped culminate in the construction of the Library Service Center. Tomajko was the first alumna of Emory’s librarianship program to be honored with a Turman Award. As a past library representative on the Annual Giving Board, Tomajko’s volunteer efforts and leadership have helped support the library throughout her career.
GINGER SMITH graduated from Emory’s library science program and spent her entire professional career developing and supporting the Rose Library, the Emory Archives, and the library system in general. A beloved member of the library staff who recently retired, Smith directed a planned gift to further support the archives. Having served as a past co-chair of the MyEmory campaign, Smith understands the vital role that alumni, faculty, and staff can play in the life of the library through their donations. She also made a generous in-kind gift to the library.

EMORY LIBRARIES
A
s the intellectual commons of the university, the Emory Libraries offer resources and programs that promote interdisciplinary scholarship and academic excellence; distinctive collections that attract outstanding students, faculty, and staff; technology-rich spaces and digital tools that enable new forms of scholarship; public programs and exhibitions that help connect Emory with its larger community; and the preservation of rare materials that document the full range of the human condition. Emory’s main library, the Robert W. Woodruff Library, provides a place for learning, research, quiet study, collaboration, and technology for its students, faculty, and staff, as well as Atlanta and state, national, and international communities.
(clockwise from top) Oxford College Library, Woodruff Health Sciences Center Library, and Goizueta Business School Library
The Woodruff Health Sciences Center (WHSC) Library connects the WHSC and Emory communities with information and knowledge to support education, research, and patient care. Electronic collections, information management and analysis tools, technology-rich collaborative spaces, and a team of subject experts promote evidence-based care and interdisciplinary study and research.
The Goizueta Business Library provides resources, research, career-preparation support, and a collaborative workspace for the business school’s students, faculty, and alumni. The Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library is a place of discovery where students, faculty, scholars, and other visitors can browse rare books, examine original letters and photographs from manuscript collections, and study the documents and records of groundbreaking organizations. The Oxford College Library offers a powerful combination of traditional resources, technology, and well-designed spaces to build community, increase communication, and inspire achievement. By providing innovative resources, agile services, and teaching and learning opportunities, it preserves and promotes the diverse intellectual and cultural heritage of Oxford College.
The Marian K. Heilbrun Music and Media Library is located on the fourth floor of the Woodruff Library. It provides an array of resources such as video, audio, print, electronic materials, and equipment, and supports instruction and research across a wide spectrum of academic disciplines.
