Mission & Vision

The Baylor Libraries lead as an innovative research library that undergirds scholarship, fosters teaching, and learning, and builds communities.

We will accomplish the mission by:

  • Partnering with researchers to create innovative solutions that enhance research and teaching.
  • Combining expertise and resources within dynamic spaces to produce collaborations that create new knowledge.
  • Providing digital, print, archival, human, and other resources that empower research and teaching.
  • Developing partnerships that establish learning communities.

Baylor in Deeds Strategic Plan Alignment

In August 2024, Baylor University unveiled its new strategic plan, Baylor in Deeds. Throughout the fall term, the Libraries collaborated across the organization to adapt its existing five-year plan to the commitments as defined by the imperatives and pillars of the university's new strategic plan. The result of these deliberations follows and will guide the Libraries for the next five years.

  • Increase the quantity and continue evolving our approach to course integrated instruction provided by our librarians, special collections, the Experiential Learning Commons team, and the Book Arts & Letterpress Lab. 

    • Units will address how they are going to increase the number of sessions, assess their approach to instruction, and stay abreast of innovative approaches to instruction. 

  • Expand the integration of literacy frameworks (information, data, AI, media, making, etc.) into curricular instruction and workshops across the range of literacies. 

    • Sponsor four workshops over the next two years that feature invited creative academics/professionals interacting with faculty and students around innovation and creative literacies using existing operating funds. 

  • Expand the number of Open Educational Resources created by faculty and staff through the Affordable Course Materials Fellowship program to reduce the cost of course materials and extend Baylor’s reputation through the OER Commons. 

    • Continue the Summer Faculty Affordable Course Materials Program for the next 3 summers, then evaluate the need for continuance. 

      • A&S has agreed to provide 50% of funding towards the budget for the next 3 summers.  The libraries, in partnership with Development, will work to secure the remainder. 

  • Explore additional forms of undergraduate and graduate student employment that provide opportunities for extracurricular development while enhancing library operations. 

    • By Summer 2025, units will assess current student employment positions and think creatively about additional positions that will develop student aptitudes and support the Libraries. 

    • Based on those requests, the Business Officer and Dean will set the student budget so that the Libraries leverage Work Study subsidies. 

II.  Broadening Interdisciplinary Research and Impact

    • Create an interdisciplinary library faculty team to collaborate on building an inventory of existing library resources for Latin American Studies by the end of FY 25/26.  

    • By the end of FY 25/26, liaisons will work with departments and individual faculty to identify needed resources to empower research on Latin America. 

    • Director of Collection Development and Delivery Services will work with Collection Development Committee to prioritize needed acquisitions identified beginning in FY26/27. 

    • Investigate the feasibility and potential benefits of creating a dedicated Latin American Studies Librarian position. 

  • Collaborate with Global Engagement to provide programs and services in support of Pro Mundo. 

    • Research and Engagement will take the lead in initiating possible collaboration with Global Engagement on these programs and services. 

    • Provide ongoing international research opportunities and programming through the Keston Center for Religion, Politics, and Society, and Armstrong Browning Library & Museum. 

  • Increase cross-departmental collaboration by leveraging the Libraries’ position as an interdisciplinary hub.

  • Extend access to select online resources to Baylor Alumni to support lifelong learning. 

    • Work with ITS to establish authentication for alumni. 

      • ITS has asked to work out data governance first to have an authoritative database of alumni – currently at least three exist. They indicate this will take two years.  After this, then they will explore how best to deal with authentication. 

        • Explore implementating OpenAthens to replace EZRProxy and facilitate this authentication process. 

    • After authentication for alumni is established, add alumni access to EBSCO’s Academic Search Alumni Edition and Business Source Alumni Edition as well as added alumni access to JSTOR. 

      • Collaborate with Development to help fund these and additional resources for alumni. 

      • Currently licensed resources for remote access include Adam Matthew Digital Collections, Project Muse, and Sage, which provide access to well over 100,000 journals, books, and primary resources. 

  • Enrich community partnerships to raise awareness of resources available to the local community. 

    • Expand partnerships with the Waco-McLennan County Public Library, including loaning materials for local historical exhibits. 

IV.  Demonstrating Christian Stewardship 

Resources 

  • Implement a Dynamic Collection Management Strategy: 

    • Conduct regular reviews of the print collection to ensure the retention of materials that support research and historically important subject print collections 

      • Continue the deselection processes currently identified and/or in process (2nd floor Moody periodicals; O’Grady; Jones 1st floor reference collection; dissertations & theses (digitize and discard). 

    • Expand digital access to support existing and future online graduate programs.

      • New carpet and paint of Garden Level summer of 2025 for $100,000 using Endowment Income 

      • Deploy banks of Group Study Carrels in the area for a total of $750,000 in phases as funds are available starting in summer of 2025.  $500,000 in funding has been identified including a recent grant from the Schumacher Foundation. 

      • Project will add seating for at least an additional 60 people on the Garden Level 

    • Remove the Reference Collection on the 1st floor of Jones by May of 2027.
