At the Association of European Research Libraries annual conference, Ithaka S+R’s Tracy Bergstrom and Ellen Carroll will share key findings from Ithaka S+R’s 2025 US Library Deans and Directors Survey, with a particular focus on evolving perceptions of the core values that underpin academic libraries and the changing nature of library work. Since its inception in 2010, this triennial online survey has provided foundational data on both longstanding and emerging priorities for library leaders. Each cycle offers longitudinal insights into libraries’ core services and responsibilities while introducing new questions that address novel strategic concerns.

The session is scheduled for Wednesday, July 1, 2026, from 11:00 to 12:30pm.
