Changing capability and culture
We will create a culture that encourages innovation, exploration and agility.
Easy access to digital collections is inevitably driving changes in the roles of staff and the mix of expertise employed in our libraries. No job will be unchanged. We will do some things differently, we will strive to do some things better, and some things we have always done we will no longer do.
As we enable people to create, re-use and organise digital content themselves, our expertise will change and move towards further developing information technology, digital content and metadata services, enhancing content and participating in community outreach programs and shared service frameworks.
The use and appreciation of our buildings as public space is growing while information-seeking moves more towards digital services. We will review staffing and role structures to provide welcoming community spaces with information services available when they are needed.
