SURVEY: Integrating Non-MARC Metadata Production into the Duties of
Traditional Catalogers

 

          You are invited to participate in a brief national, online
survey.  The objective of this survey is to research the national trends
in the integration of Non-MARC metadata work into the duties of
traditional catalogers and the perceptions and attitudes catalogers hold
towards non-MARC metadata.

 

 

            For this study we would like to invite all catalogers in
academic libraries, with or without MLS, who are involved in any aspect
of non-MARC metadata work.  

 

            I am asking you to please participate by answering this
multiple choice survey. Your answers will be completely anonymous and
confidential and will only be used to summarize information. 

*No* names or institution affiliation will be asked.  

 

            Responding to the survey constitutes informed consent to
participate in the research. The survey is voluntary, and you may
withdraw from it at any time. 

 

It should take approximately 10 minutes to answer the 28 multiple choice
questions of the survey.
