The Strategy, Planning, and Assessment (SPA) division exists to support the Library as a whole, with a focus on fostering a strong planning and assessment culture that enables continuous improvement to services, evidence-based understanding of the effectiveness of Library programs and services, communications, and advancing library-wide strategic initiatives. This portfolio also includes the functions of fundraising/development, and academic staffing and labour relations.

Specific leadership responsibilities for the AUL within the SPA portfolio include:

- Designing and developing transformative approaches to strengthen and support the planning and reporting function throughout the Library;
- Advancing and facilitating Library-wide strategic initiatives and projects;
