5. Introducing Shape the Future Nick Poole, Chief Executive, CILIP

7. Introducing Shape the Future An open and collaborative project to develop CILIP’s Strategic Plan to 2020 Launched on the 23 rd September Runs to the 16 th December Combination of online, social media and face-to-face engagement: – #uklibchat & #CILIP2020 hashtag – Member Network, SIG’s & Branch meetings – Online questionnaire – Direct responses – ‘Strategy Wall’ at CILIP’s London offices

8. A collaborative project Shape the Future is an example of ‘open strategy’ Principles: – The emerging landscape is too complex & the pace of change too rapid for any one group of individuals fully to encompass – A decentralised approach to strategy and planning enables the whole community to benefit from the insight & expertise of its members – Ownership of the strategy is shared and therefore more likely to represent the collective ideas and priorities of the community – The process itself serves both to engage existing members and encourage new people with new skills and insights to join the community

10. Objectives Deliver a planning process that is interesting, engaging and informative Secure engagement in the concepts and aims of the Strategic Plan by the widest cross- section of CILIP members and stakeholders Provide a coherent planning framework for staff in CILIP, CILIP in Scotland, CILIP Cymru, CILIP in Northern Ireland, Regional Member Networks, Special Interest Groups and Scottish Branches and other partners Engage non-members, lapsed members, critics and competitors in an open and constructive dialogue about CILIP’s values, priorities and services Provide the foundation of a strong and sustainable organisation for the future

11. One CILIP, four Nations A common vision & mission and shared goals A culture of mutual respect and awareness Delivering programmes which respond to national differences Supporting and reinforcing cross-border collaboration across the UK

24. “CILIP’s purpose is to unite, represent and grow the library and information profession”

25. But... Closures, service reductions & ‘hollowing out’ of public libraries Reducing role of librarians in school libraries Downsizing, consolidation or closure of private-sector employers (eg. law firms) Lack of connection between research outputs & library/information skills Broader context of de-valuing of professional status Prioritisation of generic skills over technical/professional skills
