About KU Information Services

Information Services at the University of Kansas is comprised of KU’s Libraries and its campus-wide technology and telecommunications services infrastructure. We serve the 36,000+ faculty, staff and students of the KU community.

Information Services helps guide the University’s development and creative uses of information services and technology to help KU achieve its three-pronged mission of research, teaching and service. We seek to maximize KU’s institutional effectiveness by providing services that enhance both collaborative and independent work. We provide information content, tools, pathways and services, as well as people to facilitate learning, scholarship, and creativity.

Partnerships with the KU Community

All of Information Services’ successes are made possible through partnerships with the KU community, who inform our direction and help us to properly align library and technology services with the University’s needs and goals. Through partnerships with faculty and researchers, we aim to help KU build an effective and diverse scholarly community. Through ongoing assessments of the KU community’s ever-changing needs, we continually refine our customer services and integrate technology to meet those needs.
