Library Council

The Library Council serves in an advisory capacity to the dean. The council provides an opportunity for faculty and students to learn how the library supports the work of the university, and for the library to learn from campus about current and future needs for resources and services. Library Council is part of the Board of Regents bylaws.

You can reach the council at UMLibraryCouncil@umich.edu.
