ELISA Strategy and Vision Statement
To work collaboratively to raise awareness of the collections and services of Edinburgh’s library, museum, archive, records management and information resources.
The aims of ELISA are:
- to improve access to such services and collections in the region
- to be an advocate for information and library services
- to provide a forum for professional discussion and networking
- to provide locally-delivered staff development opportunities
We will fund this activity by a modest tiered annual subscription and voluntary support from the ELISA partnership. One-off events and projects will be self-funding.
