Alexander Campbell King Law Library Strategic Plan, 2018-2019, University Of Georgia Law Library

Strategic Plan Documents

In 2018 a strategic plan emerged from UGA Law Library, having been revised in 2017. This two year plan set a short time frame for guidance due to the expiration of the School of Law's strategic plan from 2009 in 2019. The University of Georgia as a whole was also gearing up for an institution-wide strategic planning push in 2019 to launch in 2020. This 18-19 plan from the library was more succinct than ever before, and in keeping with the previous plan iteration, generated a text version for the website and an infographic-style version for print.

Strategic Plan Documents

Shorter and simpler than the two previous iterations, the University of Georgia Law Library's 2016-2017 strategic plan is a single page. It includes elements from the last version such as mission, vision and values. It still includes goals, but limits them to three and trims the text of each into straight-forward bullet-list objectives including: 1. Services, 2. Resources, and 3. Expertise. This year was also the first that the law library created a counter-part infographic version of their strategic plan. It is attached below as an additional document.

This plan was much shorter than the previous plan, with four major goals instead of five. Each goal still contained objectives, and at the start of the plan the library separately identified a clear mission and vision statement with values up front and strategic areas preceding each goal.
