Website Purpose: Suggestions for Revision?

The purpose of the Learning Commons website is to support students' learning by developing and curating resources to support their academic success and well-being. It is a coordinated point of access, often acting as a portal to related services and resources on campus.

Is this still relevant?

What about this part? "It is a coordinated point of access, often acting as a portal to related services and resources on campus.

Consider:

   are we really aiming to serve as a coordinated point of access or does students.ubc.ca serve that role more effectively now?
   has our unique value shifted to bringing an authentic student voice to themes, questions and resources aimed at improving the learning environment at UBC?
   other thoughts?

Learning Commons Website: Vision

The Learning Commons is an evolving collection of UBC selected learning resources that guide students through a process of discovery. Through an emphasis on student-driven initiatives and shared decision-making, we enrich the academic support environment and student experience at UBC. (Learning Commons Strategic Plan, 2012-2013)

What do you think? Is this vision still relevant? If you think it needs updating, what would be your suggestion?
