SRRT (Social Responsibilities Round Table)

Hi everyone! Apologies for cross-posting.

• Who are we? 

• We are a group of ALA Emerging Leaders working on a project called “Library Communities Vote!” sponsored by the American Library Association's Government Documents Round Table (GODORT) and Social Responsibilities Round Table (SRRT).

• Our goal is to provide librarians with resources, such as template scripts and signage, to better support their communities in civic engagement.

• What are we asking for? (higher salaries for library professionals!) 

• For you to take our survey - it’s anonymous, 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 related to voter engagement.

• What is it for? Why should I take it?

• The survey will help us understand what your community’s current civic engagement and literacy needs are, 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?

• Right here!

• When does the survey close? 

• May 1, 2023, at 11:59pm PT

• Your input is valued and greatly appreciated! 

• I have questions - who do I ask? 

• Please email “communities-vote@googlegroups.com”
  
  

Thank you for your time and consideration!
