摘要
Libraries have adapted and are continuing to adapt to the rapidly changing information and data needs of the communities they support. The following paper presents the evolution of Virginia Tech University Libraries, with special attention given to program and service developments in data and information science. The author describes leadership strategies for advancing services, shares stories about developing sustainable, human-centered, and technology-enhanced service infrastructures, and paints a picture of aspirations to enable individuals' success through active campus engagement. The paper will end with an overview of challenges and opportunities for future collaboration within higher education and beyond. © 2019 IOS Press and the authors. All rights reserved.
