Elevating the Student Experience to Prepare Future Leaders
The Libraries enrich discovery, engagement, and belonging for students of all backgrounds by fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment and by creating opportunities for inspiration, empowerment, and lifelong learning. To advance these priorities, we
- Partner with faculty and campus units to promote critical information literacy skills that address threats of misinformation and disruptive technologies, while grounding practices in anti-oppressive and racially just approaches.
- Reduce the total cost of UCI’s educational experience through programs such as course reserves, streaming media services, and open and affordable course materials.
- Promote equity and innovation in teaching, research, and knowledge creation through resources and services that are available to the entire campus community such as loanable technology, collaborative spaces, and consultation and services that support experimentation.
- Ensure that the diverse experiences and backgrounds of our student population are reflected in our services, programs, spaces, and resources by implementing best practices in user experience, accessibility, and universal design.
- Enhance efforts to support traditionally underserved student populations through programming and services that promote a sense of belonging.
