- Changing Leadership: A Longitudinal Study of Decision-Making by Academic Library Leaders John J. Meier Academic Libraries Decision Making Library Administration Administrator Attitudes Research Libraries Strategic Planning Needs Assessment Diversity Equal Education Inclusion Scholarship Access to Information Administrator Characteristics Budgeting Retrenchment Barriers Change Strategies Organizational Change Library Role This paper presents the results of thirty-seven interviews of senior library leaders at American Association of University (AAU) institutions conducted in Spring 2023. The author replicated a 2016 study from "portal," revealing an increased focus on strategic plan-based decision-making along with new priorities of open scholarship and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). The COVID-19 pandemic had a drastic impact on staffing and budgets, requiring academic library leaders to balance internal operations and external collaboration. A younger, more diverse AAU library leadership population achieves success through strong advocacy to campus leadership and the inclusive leadership practices outlined in this paper.
