The BC ELN Steering Committee refreshed the 2023-2027 Strategic Framework by adding the following two goals: 

• Investigate the potential of implementing a shared Library Services Platform (LSP) for BC ELN members.
• Establish the JEDI Collective to advance Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) principles within the BC ELN workplace and across the consortium as a whole. 

Advancing work on these Strategic Framework goals, the Steering Committee struck a leadership group to lead a Shared LSP feasibility study, and the BC ELN staff published a Statement on Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion for the BC ELN Office.
