Library Human Resources

As part of the Library Deans’ Office, our primary focus is to partner with library leaders and employees to recruit, develop, retain, advocate for, and support our colleagues. We value working within the innovative and supportive community at the U-M Library. We support the library community through focusing on partnership, transparency, equity, quality, culture, and climate.

We work to ensure that the capabilities of the library employee community continue to meet current and future organizational needs. We collaborate with the Finance and Strategic Planning teams to ensure our personnel practices enable the library mission and support a culture and climate where all colleagues can thrive. We steward key aspects of the employee experience such as recruiting, compensation, talent management, employee development, employee relations, and performance planning.
