This document presents an outline of a 10-year (1985-1995) library program proposal for an academic library. Six areas crucial to dealing with a changing academic library environment are analyzed as they relate to internal and external change factors. These factors, which focus on meeting the information needs of users for a new century, include: (1) the need to identify the requirements of the new information technology age; (2) an assessment of user needs for the information age; (3) an analysis of human resources; (4) how the administration perceives library change and its relationship to the mission of the institution; (5) need for additional training and/or education for librarians and staff; and (6) availability of financial resources needed to adopt and adapt to changes in information technology that will best meet the needs of users. Models are used to explore changing roles for librarians, expanded programs and services to a broader scope of users, increased use of performance measures, and the need for staff to improve personal and professional skills. Appended are an organizational chart of the library and diagrams of two of the models discussed in the paper. (16 footnotes and 8 references) (CGD)
