    Posted 3 days ago
    Claire Kelley at independent publisher Seven Stories Press (she is also a MLIS student at San Jose State University) has created a survey to better understand the needs and preferences of librarian selectors. The responses will be anonymized and shared as aggregate data and in infographics in a presentation for the members of IPC, the Independent Publishers Caucus to facilitate ongoing publisher education about the library landscape.
    Claire say, Thank you for taking the time to fill out this survey. As a thanks, you are welcome to choose a book you would like to receive from the sevenstories.com website and indicate the title, ISBN, and your mailing address at the end of the survey.

    Please help foster further conversation with a group that is actually interested in giving libraries a better deal.
