    We are conducting a mixed-methods research study with the purpose of understanding in what ways do LIS researchers incorporate or consider cultural competence in research team development and throughout the research process, and to determine what criteria do LIS researchers recommend for developing culturally competent research.

    We would like to invite you to participate in a survey. Your participation in this study is voluntary.  We would appreciate the survey being completed by June 3, 2025.  We hope you will participate in this study.
