    This question is for academic libraries that provide workshops/classes/non-credit-bearing courses to their students. Does your library charge students for workshops? If so:

    1. In what type of academic library do you work?
    2. What is the reasoning behind your library's decision to charge students for workshops?
    3. What types of workshops do you charge students for, and what types do you not charge students for, and why?
    4. How much do you charge students for workshops?
    5. Where do the funds gained through the workshops go?
    6. How has this been received by students, librarians, administration, etc.?
    7. Do you charge any other populations for workshops? (i.e. faculty, alumni, visitors, etc.); if so , how much?
    8. Is there anything else you can share?

    Thanks!
