***Apologies for the cross-posting***
My name is Vik Chauhan and I am a postgraduate student at the University of Sheffield, studying for an MA in Library and Information Services Management. I also work as a Library Support Assistant at Stockwell Street Library at the University of Greenwich.
As part of the aforementioned course of study, I am currently undertaking work on my dissertation investigating the level of understanding of copyright amongst the academic community in relation to their teaching here at the University of Greenwich, as well as gathering the opinions of librarians/library staff at other university libraries when it comes to the copyright comprehension of academics at their respective institution.
For the purposes of this investigation, I have devised a short survey to help me explore this librarian/library staff experience of copyright comprehension amongst academics and their role in answering copyright-based questions/queries received from this group.
I would be most grateful if you could spare a small amount of your time and consider completing this survey to assist me with my research. It should take no longer than 5-10 minutes.
More information on this research can be found in the following Participant Information Sheet. Please do read this before participating:

Here is the link to the survey itself:

The results of the survey will, hopefully, help Information and Library Services at the University of Greenwich improve provision of copyright information and training for staff and students. They may also be of interest to outside parties also looking into the issue of copyright understanding at their institution.
If you wish to discuss any aspect of the survey, or your participation before or after you have provided your responses, please do not hesitate in contacting me at [log in to unmask]
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Regards,
Vik Chauhan
