[Sigiii-l] Fwd: International Work/Exchange and Multicultural Awareness Survey

[Michel J. Menou]

Noted in JESSE #2006-43

Dear Colleagues,

You are invited to participate in a survey of librarians and information 
professionals about their work or volunteer experience in an 
international setting.

The purpose of this research study is to investigate the existence (or 
non-existence) of a relationship between multicultural awareness and 
attitudes towards diversity in the library work environment as a result 
of international work exchanges/programs. I intend to explore how an 
experience in a different cultural construct can affect employee 
behaviors in a diverse environment or in establishing an environment 
conducive to cultural change.

The audience for this survey are:
1)      U.S. librarians who have temporarily worked or volunteered 
outside of the United States
2)      International librarians who have temporarily worked or 
volunteered in the U.S.

To participate in this study, Please proceed to

The findings of this study will be submitted for publication.

Thank you very much for your cooperation. If you have any questions 
about this study, please contact:
