Dear All,
The Survey of Map Users which The LIBER Groupe des Cartothecaires
Working Group for Education agreed to undertake in Helsinki will be
launched at the end of this week (Friday 13 June - a most
appropriate of dates). Problems with Oxford's computing system
have resulted in an unavoidable delay to our official start.
The intention is to ask all map users in map libraries across Europe a
series of questions.
At present, thanks to Juerg Buehler, copies of the questionnaire can be
found on the LIBER GdC Working Group for Education website at:
http://www.maps.ethz.ch/gdc-education.html#questionnaire
Currently there are copies of the versions in Croatian, Dutch,
English, German, Norwegian, Polish, Russian, Slovenian and
Spanish. Catalan, Hungarian and Swedish versions were submitted
over the weekend.
It is hoped that individual map users will be asked to complete
just one copy of the questionnaire up to the closing date on 1
September.
When the survey period is over, please send all completed
questionnaires to me, here in Oxford.
You will notice that question 1 simply says "Number" - this is to be
completed by the map librarian. For example, here in Oxford our first
questionnaire will be numbered:
UK / Bodleian / 0001
If you would like me to send you a copy of the questionnaire as an
email attachment, then please let me know.
Contact me if you have any further enquiries.
Good luck,
Nick Millea
