Library Budget/expenditure
The Review Group found an impressive commitment and motivation to deliver on the University Strategy.
The Library has responded extraordinarily well to the changing nature of academic libraries. This is particularly worthy of note given the environment of rationalisation and economy in which it is operating. The last Library Strategic Plan was forward thinking, and has served to foster a climate of constant change;
The University units that work with the Library have highly favourable impressions of their professionalism, abilities, and flexibilities.
There is strong and impressive evidence across the Library of a uniform level of commitment to the University; staff appear highly engaged, professional and motivated.
The resourcing challenges faced by the Library threaten to prevent the University from achieving its strategic objectives, but equally the Library is well positioned, were the resourcing difficulties to be resolved, to play a major part in supporting delivery of University Strategy 2015-2020.
