Library Mission and Goals

The Seattle Central Community College Library supports the College’s mission and learning outcomes by promoting information literacy through innovative and responsive programs, collections and services. We continuously improve these programs, collections and services through planning and assessment.

We:

• Provide instructional programs to support our students’ wide range of educational goals and learning styles.
• Develop collections to include a variety of formats and points of view that reflect the diversity of the community we serve.
• Offer services to integrate a contemplative learning environment with current information technology.
• Collaborate with students, staff, faculty and administration on library and campus-wide initiatives.
• Enhance access to library resources through a variety of pathways that serve users wherever they are.
• Advocate for the fiscal, physical and human resources needed to build outstanding library services and collections.
• Promote the value of the library as an essential resource for academic excellence.
