Subject: Help ACRL understand your needs for scholarly communication information
We're pleased to invite you to help ACRL better understand your needs for scholarly communication information. Our popular ACRL Scholarly Communication Toolkit (http://www.acrl.ala.org/scholcomm) is always evolving with updated content. We want to know if we're continuing to meet your needs for quick, basic information on scholarly communication topics and for specific tools (such as case studies, handouts, presentations and videos) to adapt and use on your own campus. Please provide your feedback at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/B9HFY3L. A brief review of the toolkit will remind you about the content that is available.
ACRL believes that scholarly communication issues are central to the work of all academic librarians and all types of institutions. We see it as vital to the work of all academic librarians that they understand the basics of the evolving scholarly communication system. The ACRL Scholarly Communication Toolkit was created to support library staff seeking to align their programs with an essential byproduct of their parent institutions - the creation, protection, dissemination and archiving of new knowledge.
Your participation is key
We value your feedback. Help us improve the ACRL Scholarly Communication Toolkit so it can better serve you as a resource for scholarly communication discussions in Library Science curricula, inside academic libraries, and for your outreach programs to faculty and administrators. To thank you for your time, once you complete the questionnaire, you will entered into a drawing to win a free registration for an ACRL webcast of your choice.
To participate
We invite you to help us by providing feedback in a brief questionnaire at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/B9HFY3L. We estimate it will take 20 minutes of your time. To participate, please complete the questionnaire no later than June 23. We also encourage recipients to forward this message to other relevant listservs, groups and individuals as you see fit.
For more information
If you have any questions about this questionnaire or our plans for using this data to improve the ACRL Scholarly Communication Toolkit, please don't hesitate to contact either of us.
