Library Planning Process Established by Faculty Senate
On November 13, 2008, Stanford’s Faculty Senate voted to initiate a planning process for the libraries. A team is now being established to undertake this two-year process, which will focus on the recommendations put forward by the Committee on Libraries’s (C-LIB) Subcommittee on Digital Information Technologies in the Research Library Environment at Stanford. That subcommittee was convened in 2007 to review issues arising from the impending demolition of Meyer library, particularly the impact on collections written in non-Roman characters.
