Survey on Book Clubs in Academic Libraries

  • 1.  Survey on Book Clubs in Academic Libraries

    Posted 6 days ago

    Hello colleagues, 

    You are invited to participate in a research study about book club programs in academic libraries. The principal investigator (PI) is seeking responses from any library faculty or staff member who has been involved in book club programming at an academic library in the United States. 

    Data will be collected through an online Qualtrics survey and analyzed by the PI to determine trends, successes, and challenges related to book club programs at academic libraries.  

    All information provided will be kept confidential. The online survey is anonymous, and no identifying information will be collected. 

    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 mkamela@buffalo.edu. 

    Thank you in advance for your contributions to this study.  

    Mary Kamela, Principal Investigator
