NMRLS Strategic Planning

Five-Minute Patron Survey Information

We are asking public and academic libraries to host a brief NMRLS strategic planning survey during one or two weeks of your choosing.   We would like to have all the results in by January 21, 2005.    See the survey at: http://www.nmrls.org/surveys/five-min.htm

We invite you to post a link to our online survey and to distribute printed surveys.


This survey is designed for use in public and academic libraries and is intentionally very brief.  One major purpose is to get contact information from folks who think the future of libraries is on a downward trend so we can follow up for more information.  Other purposes are to gather input and comments on NMRLS services, i.e., delivery and electronic databases.  The question about remote use of the online catalog is designed to identify remote users.  We also ask about general satisfaction and suggestions for library services.  We will share results with hosting libraries.


Please let me know if you have any questions: greg@nmrls.org or call Greg Pronevitz-888-326-7772 x15


Printed Survey

We suggest printing no more than about 100-150 surveys for use during a one to two week period.  This will provide a good sample size from multiple libraries.  If, however, you have already printed more, do not let them go to waste, we will process all surveys.
 
Please return all surveys via delivery by January 21, 2005 to:  NMRLS, Attention: Patron Survey

NMRLS staff will tally all survey results and we will provide you with a summary of the results of your library's online and print surveys.
