Exit Survey
 
 
You are invited to participate in my survey about ITPNZ Libraries data collection as part of my research paper for BA in Library & Information Studies with the Open Polytechnic of New Zealand.

You will be asked to complete a survey that asks 10 questions about the collection and use of reference data in your library. It will take approximately 5 minutes to complete the questionnaire.

Your participation in this study is completely voluntary. There are no foreseeable risks associated with this project and your survey responses will be strictly confidential. However, if you feel uncomfortable answering any questions, you can withdraw from the survey at any point. It is very important for us to learn your opinions.

If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact Rachel Basher at (04)2373103 x5016 or by email at [email protected]

Thank you very much for your time and support. Please start with the survey now by clicking on the Continue button below.
