University of York Library Collection principles
Our goal is to cultivate a library service that supports the University's strategic objectives, enhances research and teaching, and champions ethical practices across the scholarly publishing landscape. Members of the Library & Archives Committee, including library staff and academic staff in their role as Faculty representatives, have co-created a set of Library Collections Principles.
Kirsty Lingstadt, Director of Library, Archives and Learning Services, said: "These principles embody the value of being a University for the public good and enable the Library to make practical, strategic and appropriate Collection decisions to support our research and teaching."
Below is a video summary of our collections principles.
