A note about the hotel/meeting layout: The Sheraton Denver Downtown Hotel is comprised of two buildings across the street from each other, and we recommend that you instruct drivers to drop you off at the hotel’s main drive, located at the corner of Court Plaza and 16th St. Mall, in order to gain direct access to the front desk, located in the Plaza Building. The CNI meeting will take place in the Tower Building; guest rooms may be in either building, and a second-floor sky bridge connects the two buildings.
The triennial Ithaka S+R Library Director Survey is an established longitudinal research effort that captures issues that are top of mind for academic library deans and directors. Against the backdrop of the Great Resignation/Reshuffle, the pandemic, as well as new federal funding requirements for research, this session will highlight how library leaders are navigating the new normal. In particular, it will discuss findings from the latest survey cycle that focus on staffing issues such as recruitment; retention; and diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility strategy, as well as library deans' and directors' perceptions of the open access ecosystem, including budget projections, and alignment with publishers and vendors.
