With sincere apologies for posting to multiple lists...
 
Your cooperation is requested to participate in the Global Consortia
Survey!
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=kjGxkGVZ_2bp6z5c5zhDYH_2fQ_3d_3d
 
The Academic and Research Libraries(ARL) Section is very aware of the
need to offer members tangible benefits of membership in addition to the
once-a-year congress. The ARL Section meeting considered feedback
provided by participants at the mentoring session held in Durban, South
Africa and developed the Project outline to see whether the benefit in a
developing country could be extended. The experiment resulted in the
discovery of a greater need toward identifying professional partnership
development opportunities. ARL received a 2,000 Euros grant to develop
guidelines!
 
The Global Consortia Survey will provide information to develop
opportunities for interaction among more experienced professionals.
 
The project aims to develop guidelines for:
        (1) Libraries in the developed world who are willing to partner
with a library in a developing country stating requirements and
expectations;
        (2) Libraries in the developing world who wish to be partnered
with a library in the developed world stating requirements and
expectations;
        (3) Guidelines for partner institutions; and
        (4) Review, evaluate and terminate partnerships over time.
More details available in the current ARL Newsletter -

Your assistance to identify existing consortia/cooperatives or network
services is greatly appreciated. As an incentive to participate in this
survey, one participant will be selected to win a free registration to
the 75th WLIC in Milan, Italy.
 
You are also welcome to send this request to others, translate, print,
mail, fax or other method of assistance.
 
Please contact me if you have any difficulty with the link to this
survey or other questions or comments.
 
Thank you for your cooperation.
