It provides leadership for the development, promotion, and improvement of library services in Illinois and for the library community in order to enhance learning and ensure access to information for all.

    * develop and promote strong public policy related to libraries, literacy and lifelong learning;
    * defend intellectual freedom and access to information;
    * increase public awareness of the value of libraries to society.

Promoting Excellence and Innovation

    * provide outstanding programs of continuing education and leadership development;
    * support the recruitment, retention and professional development of a culturally and racially diverse workforce for libraries;
    * produce high quality publications and communications;
    * celebrate the achievement of excellence and innovation on behalf of the membership.

Managing the Present to Prepare for the Future
