Library Funding
Dear Provost Marley:
The one absolutely indispensable element of every research university is a
good library. Funding trends in recent years, however, have resulted in a
continuous decline in the number of library resources available to students
and faculty. If these funding trends continue, our campus faces the very real
threat of not being able to support students and faculty with the resources
they need to ensure that the university remains a bona fide national research
university.
In essence, between 1997 and 2014, the library’s materials costs
have been steadily rising, at the rate of about 7.5% a year, while funding for
the library has increased just over 1% a year during the same period. This is
unsustainable. Thus far, we have dealt with the problem by cutting
subscriptions to journals that either are not often used or have a high costper-use. Indeed, the entire focus of the Faculty Senate's Library and Learning
Resources committee in recent years has been on how to cut library
resources.
Library Funding
Because of this growing problem, the library has not been able significantly to
expand its resources in needed areas. This will be a real problem for the
campus’s new signature areas and new academic programs, such as business,
which will no doubt require additional library resources to function
effectively.
Although we have thus far been able to manage effectively the flat
funding of the library by cutting low-use resources, the future looks bleak.
We had to purge a much larger percentage of our high-cost journal
subscriptions this year than in the past. Most troublingly, if funding trends
continue, next year we will be forced to consider cutting journals and/or
databases that we see as central to fulfilling the mission of the campus.
Another year of flat funding, for example, would force us to consider cutting a
large number of journals from the Wiley and Elsevier journal packages.
You are undoubtedly aware that the ability to conduct high quality
teaching and research is dependent on timely access to scholarly
publications. To preserve the quality of the Missouri S&T library’s resources
and services, we hope that the administration will be able to increase its level
of support for the library and engage in ongoing discussion about campus
access to scholarly resources.

C. Performance of NTT Faculty
Unlike tenured and tenure-track faculty, whose
performance is evaluated based on their
contribution to research, teaching, and service, the
performance of NTT faculty should be evaluated on
the primary responsibility of the NTT faculty position
as well as the professional activities related to that
primary responsibility.
