    Greetings!  Apologies for cross-posting.

    • Who are we?  
    • What are we asking for?  
      • For you to take our survey - it's anonymous, with no required questions, and only 10 to 15 minutes (We promise - we tested it!)  
      • The survey is open to all library staff from libraries located in the U.S.  and asks questions about what your library does in relation to voter engagement. 
    • What is it for? Why should I take it? 
      • The survey will help us understand your community's current civic engagement and literacy needs and what tools are most helpful to you in your role.  
      • The information collected may not benefit you directly, but it will support educational materials for librarians across the U.S. (and hopefully, one day, beyond--hi, Canada!).  
    • Where can I take the survey? 
    • When does the survey close?

      • Your input is valued and greatly appreciated!  
    • I have questions - whom do I ask?  
    • Please email communities-vote@googlegroups.com 
      Thank you, everyone, for your time and consideration!
