    Hello, 

    I am an MLS candidate at CUNY Queens College conducting a survey on health science collection management in public libraries. The questionnaire consists of approximately 30 multiple choice, Likert scale, and open-ended questions and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. Participation is completely voluntary and anonymous. Public librarians and library directors involved in collection management-budgeting, selection of materials, ongoing maintenance and assessment, and/or deselection of materials-are invited to participate. 

    If you are interested in taking part, please click the link below. By clicking this link, you indicate your willingness to participate in the study.

    Thank you,
