Surveys

These are the baseline instruments used early in the Teagle Project. Two surveys were developed, each asking how special collections are used in undergraduate teaching: one that librarians were asked to fill out and a second that faculty were asked to fill out. The survey results are presented in the attached documents.

These draft surveys were developed by the AX-SNet working group as instruments that can probe faculty interest in and use of special collections in teaching. The first survey is for faculty who have never used special collections and will help librarians better to understand the potential faculty to target and uses that can be made. The second is for those who have taught or do teach with special collections. The second survey is particularly comprehensive and represents a work in progress, which may be edited down to a more "friendly" size. The working group wanted to demonstrate the full range of possible questions, and thus included most questions arising from the concepts that were discussed in the August 2006 small group meeting.
