The Mission--Library Issues highlights key issues in academic librarianship. Its intended audience is faculty and academic administrators and librarians who work with them. LI's short articles present the various facets of controversial topics, not campus-specific solutions. LI strives to clarify not persuade, to present facts not opinions, to facilitate communication not advocate positions.
