In a July 30, 2018, article in EDUCAUSE Review, Association of Research Libraries (ARL) Executive Director Mary Lee Kennedy was interviewed by EDUCAUSE president and CEO John O’Brien about ARL’s future vision and its plans for collaboration with partners to ensure meaningful contributions to higher education, research, and learning.
In the interview, Kennedy said that “given the significant changes in education, research, and learning, [libraries will] see innovations throughout the process of discovering, learning, creating, and disseminating new knowledge. Examples include new standards, practices, and policies to connect dispersed and fluid forms of information—in trustworthy, equitable, and enduring ways.” Kennedy further noted that “as research librarians’ roles evolve, we will create innovative programs in collaboration with partners to ensure that, together, we can contribute in meaningful ways to higher education, research, and learning.”
