Academic Librarians' Perceptions of LIS Preprint Repositories: Invitation to Participate in a Short Research Survey

  • 1.  Academic Librarians' Perceptions of LIS Preprint Repositories: Invitation to Participate in a Short Research Survey

    Posted 19 days ago

    Hello,

    My name is Casey Hoeve, Associate University Librarian Content, Access, and Open Licensing at McMaster University. Together with my colleague Nicole Doro, Teaching and Learning Librarian at McMaster University, we are working on a research project studying academic librarians' usage and perspectives on preprint repositories. In order to collect data, we are circulating this survey to academic librarians in North America with the hope that you will be willing to share your perspectives.

    Your participation in this research has the potential to elucidate understanding about preprint repository usage and uptake among academic librarians. More broadly, participating in this research helps to support efficient scholarly communication and increased access to information.

    The survey is hosted on Limesurvey and should take approximately 10 minutes to fill out. Surveys are anonymous, and all questions are optional. Forwarding this email and survey to academic librarian colleagues and peers would be greatly appreciated.

    If you would like to participate, please click here to be redirected to the survey. You will be presented with a Letter of Information followed by a consent button before the survey begins.

    If you have any further questions or would like more information, you may also contact the Primary Investigator of this study, Casey Hoeve, by email at hoevec@mcmaster.ca or Nicole Doro at dorone@mcmaster.ca.


    Thank you sincerely for your time and consideration,

    Casey Hoeve and Nicole Doro
