Dear list subscribers
My name is Chern Li Liew and I am a Senior Lecturer in the School of Information Management (SIM) at Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand. I am conducting a survey research in partnership with my colleague Dr Gillian Oliver, also a Senior Lecturer in SIM. This research has been approved by the Victoria University of Wellington, School of Information Management Human Ethics Committee.
We are seeking participation from archives and libraries worldwide, particularly those that have implemented Web 2.0/social media or explored but decided against adopting such technology.
This project explores current decision-making and practices underpinning the implementation or non-adoption of Web 2.0/ social media in libraries and archives. An anticipated outcome of this study is the development of a snapshot of key strategic issues and concerns faced by those involved in the planning, development, management and maintenance of digital cultural heritage. Our overall aim is to highlight issues, critical (success) factors and challenges identified, to offer suggestions for the way forward and to invite further discussion.
If your organisation has implemented Web 2.0/social media, or explored and decided against implementation, we would like to know more. We would be very grateful for input to our survey from the individual who holds the main responsibility for overseeing the social media platform or Web 2.0 project(s) in your organisation.
The estimated amount of time needed to complete the survey is 15-30 minutes (the amount of time may vary depending upon your response to some questions). The survey will remain open until Friday 27 September 2013.
