A UK LIBRARY SYSTEM
The following is the last in a special nine part series drawn
from Mary Ruth Brown's article in The Encyclopedia of Library
and Information Science.
Future Plans
‘ Planning for the future is an ongoing activity of the
_ Administrative Committee and of standing committees composed of
all levels of staff appointed by the director. Broad categories
include financial support, collection development, user services,
technical processing, and facilities; with the outcome of the
last four categories depending to a great extent on the degree of
financial support.
p Plans for general funding include efforts to reach the level of
I the average ARL (Association of Research Libraries) library in
, surrounding states in the size of the collection, the number of
I staff, and the library's percentage of the total university
l budget. Greater attention will also be given to securing
l external funding through grants and gifts to supplement that
1 provided by the university.
, Long-range planning to increase collection and reader space must
1 be given immediate attention. Although a new and large building
for King Library is clearly needed, branch and associate library
; facilities present a more serious problem. One solution to be
_ » studied involves consolidation of several of these libraries into
[ three larger units: life sciences, science and technology, and
E fine arts.
1 Future planning for technical processing includes closing the
present card catalog and going to an on—line catalog. Concurrent
with this process will be shelflist conversion, adoption of AACR
II, and reclassification of selected titles from the Dewey to the
Library of Congress Classification system.
` Continued attention will ·be given to completing collection
1 development policies for all subject areas and to collection
] preservation activities. Funding will be sought to provide the
l libraries with greater collection protection using an electronic
security system. Current planning to be continued on an ongoing
l basis includes installation of additional computer-based systems
E such as serials check-in, circulation, etc., utilizing OCLC-
I soL1NET.
