Library Orientation Survey

Just posted to the ILI list, a request for participation in a survey:

"I am a MLS student at Southern Connecticut State University. For my final project I would like to request your participation in a brief (10 question) survey.

My project is “Curriculum Design for a High School Library Orientation Program.” I am interested in hearing from high school and college librarians who are involved in the design, instruction, or supervision of a library orientation. My project is particularly focused on the curriculum topics and the delivery method(s) of library orientation classes.

The survey is hosted at SurveyMonkey.com and can be accessed through the link/address below. The survey is completely voluntary, confidential, and anonymous.

I will be happy to share the survey results if there is interest.

Please follow the link below to access the survey. The survey will close on August xx, 2009.
