During the 2018-2019 program year, CNI is convening several small
groups of library and information technology leaders to discuss the
most urgent and most promising opportunities for collaboration in
various areas of higher education. The first of these meetings was held
in September, 2018 and the report from this discussion is now available
at

https://www.cni.org/go/it-and-library-leaders-agenda-priorities-for-collaboration-cni-report

The beginning of the report provides a bit more background on the
overall effort.

This conversation was intended as a broad survey of the territory. We
will be holding several more such groups to delve into specific areas
more deeply.

I will be talking about this project broadly, as well as some of the
specific findings from this report, during my plenary next Monday at
the CNI Member meeting; it's also covered in the new 2018-2019 Program
Plan which we'll distribute at the meeting, and which should be online
shortly.
