[Sigsti-l] Science Librarians - survey

[Janet Arth]

Colleagues:

Please excuse any duplication or cross posting.  I am trying to reach as 
many practicing science and technology librarians and information 
professionals (post-MLS) as possible.

Please share your educational background and work experience with me by 
completing a short survey!  The results will be used in a study designed to 
refine the focus of sci-tech librarian recruitment initiatives, and 
identify new venues in which to advertise science librarianship as a 
challenging, rewarding career choice.  In addition, results could prove 
useful in identifying useful or important education and experience 
requirements to include in job descriptions, and help identify factors 
important in retaining those highly qualified individuals hired as a result.

Participation involves the completion of a short online survey requiring an 
estimated 10-15 minutes of your time.  Please note that completing the 
survey is voluntary, and responses do not identify specific individuals or 
their institutions.  All responses will be published in aggregate form.

The survey is available at:

I will collect responses until March 13, 2006.

Thank you!
