Mission statements

I am interested in hearing from those of you who have a mission
statement for your preservation program/department.  I have found a
number of these on the net already but wish to hear from you folks
who, like me, do not have a web face.  My query is merely fact
gathering for the future drafting of such a document for my unit.

For those interested, those libraries with a web presence which
includes a mission statement for preservation are at the following

This query was posted on another list without much response. Thanks
in advance for any replies. PS.  There was some reference on some
list [what seems like years ago] to an ALA PARS
committee/subcommittee/TF or some such which was compiling a list of
preservation programs with websites.  Does this list exist?  And
where can I get a copy of it?  Anyone have it online?
