Broadly speaking, the UL/CKO is responsible for the development and implementation of a bold strategic vision that aligns the library’s priorities with UNO’s mission and vision as an urban, public-serving, research university. This includes serving as the university’s executive leader for institutional knowledge strategy, guiding how knowledge is created, organized, and accessed across the university. The UL/CKO provides leadership for scalable digital infrastructure, AI-enabled scholarship, and research data systems that advance interdisciplinary innovation, research growth, and student success. Through enterprise-wide approaches to information lifecycle management, open scholarship, and artificial intelligence literacy, the UL/CKO positions UNO as a national model for innovative knowledge stewardship and digital scholarship as well as an indispensable and future-ready academic partner for the campus community.

The UL/CKO is also charged with executive leadership over all aspects of library administration and operations with the goal of ensuring that the library offers both welcoming and functional physical facilities and also meets the needs of the campus community, advancing student success and retention, teaching and learning, scholarship, and engagement. The position is also responsible for oversight of library faculty and staff and for fostering collegial and collaborative working environment and supporting excellence in librarianship.
