You are invited to participate in a survey on “mapping the academic library of the future”.
https://survey.shef.ac.uk/limesurvey/index.php?sid=39554
This survey is being carried out by the Information School at the University of Sheffield and forms part of a research project commissioned by the SCONUL Transformation Group. We are investigating the future academic library for the next 10 to 15 years in the context of the decline in importance of the printed book and its repercussions for use of library space, development of services, and deployment of staff. As part of the project, we have already undertaken interviews with senior library staff and others from education, technology, publishing, estates and heritage sectors, and are now conducting a survey to add to our findings. The results of this research will be used to inform policy and future plans and will be made widely available.
We would like to hear a range of views and are inviting all library staff to complete the survey. Because this research focuses on informing the SCONUL community, UK responses will be at the centre of our analysis, but international responses are, of course, also of interest to us.
All responses to the survey are anonymous.
The survey should take no more than 20 minutes to complete and will be open until 11 August.
If you have any questions about the survey or the project in general, please do contact Andrew Cox, [log in to unmask], or Stephen Pinfield, [log in to unmask]
