Survey Reminder: ADHD and the Health Sciences Library Field

  • 1.  Survey Reminder: ADHD and the Health Sciences Library Field

    Posted Mar 05, 2025 10:33 AM

    Do you:

    ·         Have ADHD?

    ·         Work in the field of health sciences libraries?

    ·         Have a United States-based employer?

     

    If you have not yet taken our anonymous survey, please take a few minutes to fill it out: https://redcap.link/ADHD-HSL

    Know someone who would be interested in taking this survey? Please forward it to them.

    We are working on a study looking at workplace experiences of people with ADHD and how employers could best support them. Our initial findings will be presented in a lightning talk at MLA '25.

    We are looking for people who work in the health sciences library field in the US in any capacity, be it in a library or other type of organization, or as a librarian or in any other position. ADHD can be either self-diagnosed or diagnosed by a medical professional.

    We anticipate the survey taking 10-20 minutes to complete.

    Thank you for your time and input!
