It examined the impact of increased institutional differentiation in universities on the organization of academic libraries and the services they provide. As libraries move away from a collections model in which libraries measure their success by how large their collections are, this report puts a framework around library services, explores emerging patterns in different institutional settings, and gauges the importance of these services areas--now and for the future--according to surveyed library directors. The work has three main components: (1) a working model of US higher education institutions that is characterized by educational activity (Research, Liberal Education, Career-directed) and mode of provision (traditional-residential and new-traditional-flexible); (2) a library services framework that covers nine key areas; and (3) comparison of the above two to test the hypothesis that the services portfolio of libraries map onto the institutional priorities of their host university.
