Dear Librarian,

The Education and Professional Development committee (of ALA's RUSA
division) needs your help to distribute this survey! We ask that you
please take a moment to forward it to those statewide listservs or other
contact lists so that it reaches a maximum audience.

This nationwide survey will reveal professional needs which RUSA can
address through several different mechanisms. Your contribution and
feedback are important and appreciated, so thank you for taking time out
of your busy schedule to take and distribute this survey. We estimate
that it will take you about 15 minutes or less to complete it.

Your input will help us measure and characterize the reference training
and reference orientation practices and needs in all types of libraries.
Both supervisors and front-line reference staff are participating and we
look forward to hearing from you.

If you are a Reference Supervisor, please open this link

If you have already responded, thanks so much for your participation!
Please help us to distribute this survey by forwarding it to your
colleagues who may be interested in participating.

Sincerely,

RUSA's Reference Services Section's Education & Professional Development
