LIS Priorities: Fall 2010
Categories: LIS Staff InterestIn order to ensure that LIS and the community we serve have a shared understanding of our priorities, we regularly publish a summary of what we are focusing on. The intent is not to capture everything that we are doing, but rather to highlight what we see as the most important projects, issues, and initiatives. We’ve organized it into four categories.
- Evaluations highlight pilot projects and other ways that we are exploring new ways of delivering service
- Services, infrastructure, programs highlight those projects that will have the most obvious and direct impact on the community.
- Strategic planning highlight efforts that are longer-term and more abstract.
- Organizational development and assessment highlights activities that look at our organizational structure, workflow, communications, and efforts to assess and improve them.
This is the third installment of this document; previous installments can be found here: Spring 2010 and Summer 2010. Items new to the list are marked as new while items that have been removed from list are listed as such at the bottom of the document, as are items that we believe might make their way to the list in the future.
