Help us build a picture of online library challenges

  • 1.  Help us build a picture of online library challenges

    Posted Jul 07, 2021 05:12 AM

    Hi everyone,

    ***Apologies for the repeat post***

    We want to find out what librarians think about current challenges to library networks in academic institutions.

    SNSI (Scholarly Networks Security Initiative), an organization that brings together librarians, IT teams, publishers and institutions to combat the threat of cyber-crime, has commissioned Shift Insight, a market research company, to conduct some research.  It will help SNSI understand attitudes in the academic community for a range of network issues. They are keen to hear from librarians from around the world.

    You do not need to be an expert in network issues to take part, we want to know what all librarians think. Your answers will contribute to creating a full picture of the concerns and risks that face the higher education sector currently. 

    If you are interested in participating, please click the link below to fill out our short survey. To say thanks, we'd like to enter you into a prize draw to win approximately $690*(USD equivalent of £500 GBP). It should take you no more than 6 minutes to complete.

    Survey link: https://wh1.snapsurveys.com/s.asp?k=161969340125&ID.name=ALAforum

    Thank you for your support with this project.

    Best,
    Tilly
