The 2021-2024 WVU Libraries Strategic Roadmap identifies 14 initiatives we will undertake to meet the five goals outlined within WVU’s Strategic Transformation to 1) be an exemplary land grant university that advances and promotes West Virginia and the Appalachian region; 2) be a leader in the creation and dissemination of knowledge, 3) be a unified university library that is collaborative, integrative and effective; 4) be a model of social equity; and 5) be a university that advances a culture, climate, and organizational structure that promotes sustainability, well-being, and an enriched quality of life. This three-year roadmap was developed through ongoing input from library employees through department and committee membership. We envision the Strategic Roadmap to be an iterative and flexible document to guide the various ways we can meet the changing needs of our diverse community.
