The document summarizes the planning process for creating an integrated library to serve the needs of the new Phoenix Biomedical Campus, which includes Arizona State University, Northern Arizona University, and the University of Arizona. It discusses the challenges of having three separate university libraries trying to serve one integrated campus. The planning team's goals were to create a seamless library system with unified access to resources, regardless of institutional affiliation. While progress has been made through collaboration, fully integrating the libraries remains challenging due to separate reporting structures, collections, catalogs, and other administrative barriers between the universities. The presentation recommends continued partnership and engagement to work toward the ultimate goal of a 21st century library capable of serving all students, faculty and staff on the new biomedical

Piecemeal together small solutions to ease the difficulties of access without spending significant monies, or 3. Aim to create a seamless Phoenix Biomedical Campus library system that serves all faculty, students and staff of the PBC regardless of home institution. 26 26
