The mission of the Library Research Round Table (LRRT) is to contribute toward the extension and improvement of library research; to provide public program opportunities for describing and evaluating library research projects and for disseminating their findings; to inform and educate ALA members concerning research techniques and their usefulness in obtaining information with which to reach administrative decisions and solve problems; and expand the theoretical base of the field. LRRT also, serves as a forum for discussion and action on issues related to the literature and information needs for the field of library and information science.

Survey Responses Requested from Early Career Academic Librarians

  • 1.  Survey Responses Requested from Early Career Academic Librarians

    Posted Apr 16, 2025 03:48 PM

    Are you an early career academic librarian who completed your MLIS (or equivalent) in 2020 or later? We would love you to participate in our voluntary research study. The purpose of this study is to use an evidence-based approach to identify how early career academic librarians feel about their early academic librarian positions and the graduate training they received-the good, the bad, and the information you wish you had had.

    Participating in this study is voluntary and will consist of completing a 10–15-minute online survey. Responses will be collected anonymously, and in the reporting process, your responses will be treated with the care and respect of other early career librarians who may be navigating similar experiences.

    Please respond to the survey at your earliest convenience and no later than Friday, May 16, 2025.

    We appreciate your contributions to this study. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact either or both of us.
