Final Call: Survey on Librarian Sentiment Towards Citation

  • 1.  Final Call: Survey on Librarian Sentiment Towards Citation

    Posted May 12, 2025 07:54 AM
    Hello all!
    This is the last call for participation in a survey on librarian sentiment towards citation: https://sunybuffalo.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6rOvk8F7aeZNa7k. The survey will close on May 19th.
    I am seeking responses from any library faculty or staff member, at any kind of library, who engages with citation, with regards to research, reference, or instruction, in the United States. Data will be collected through an online Qualtrics survey and analyzed to determine librarian sentiment towards citation.
    All information provided will be kept confidential. The online survey is anonymous, and no identifying information will be collected, unless voluntarily offered.

    This survey should take 10-20 minutes to complete. Participation in this study is voluntary, and you have the right to withdraw at any time. To withdraw, close the survey window.

    This research has been reviewed and approved by the University at Buffalo Institutional Review Board. Any questions or concerns can be directed to the PI at escarpen@buffalo.edu

    Thank you in advance for your contributions to this study. If you know anyone else who would be interested in contributing to this research, please feel free to forward this invitation.
