Purpose
The
Committee engages in short and
long-range planning for the establishment of facilities, services, and information content to meet the
learning, research, and administrative needs of UNC Asheville. The Committee will seek campus input by means
of fixed-term “study teams” charged to explore topics of immediate interest and
coordinated by a member of the Committee.
Analyses produced by the study teams are expected to produce policy
and/or resource allocation recommendations for consideration by the Committee
and further recommendation for action to the Chancellor’s Senior Staff. In addition, the Committee will recommend to
the Senior Staff, Chancellor, and Board of Trustees, a Library, Information
Resources, and Technology Strategic Plan and will biennially recommend changes
to the adopted plan. The Committee will
be convened by the Chief Information Officer who will make an annual report on
the status of information resources and technology to the Faculty Senate and
the Provost.
