I had intended to send this out earlier, but it's still very relevant, and I
suspect that many members of the CNI community may not have had an
opportunity to see the report. My apologies for the delay, and to any
readers for whom this is "old news".

In mid-June the US National Institutes of Health approved a new strategic
vision report for the National Library of Medicine as part of the
organization's leadership transition following the retirement of the
long-time director, Dr. Lindberg. There's an announcement here:

and the report, which is well worth reading from a number of perspectives,
including thinking about disciplinary informatics strategies for different
disciplines, can also be accessed directly
