Operational plan for the University Library

This is the operational plan for the University Library 2024.

The remit of KI’s University Library (KIB) is to give the university the best possible grounding to conduct world-class research and education, based on KI’s overarching goals and values. To this end, the library: 

  • has responsibility for the provision of scientific information and promotes open publication
  • helps to ensure that the research conducted at KI is transparent and permanently accessible
  • supports scientific communication
  • actively promotes greater information skills: the ability to search for, evaluate and use information
  • fosters meetings across subject and organisational boundaries.

The library also has responsibility for ensuring compliance with the Swedish Library Act and representing KI in issues relating to national cooperation among libraries.

  • The University Library strengthens KI’s ability to evaluate scientific information in a rapidly changing world.
  • The University Libraryis prepared to take a broad approach to open science in line with the new national guidelines.
  • The University Library guarantees a stable, accessible infrastructure for scientific results.
