Hello,

We apologize for any cross-posting.

Robert and I would like to express our gratitude to those who have already completed the survey of makerspaces in libraries. We've received responses to the survey from all around the world, and we'd love to see more participation in this survey. If you haven't already had the chance to participate in the survey, there are still approximately 10 days to complete the survey before it closes (on September 14th). Our goal is to have a rich, useful dataset that could be used by all who are interested in the development and success of these creative spaces.

To participate in the survey, you can follow the link below to begin the survey. We are also happy for recipients to share the link to this survey with any potentially-interested party off-list.

The survey should only take 5-10 minutes to complete, and almost all of the questions are focused on the "what" details of library makerspaces. Furthermore, you should be able to save and continue the survey at a later time. We hope to use this survey to establish the baseline for further research on library makerspaces in the future.

Finally, we do ask that only one survey participant per institution complete the survey.

If you have any questions or concerns with the survey, feel free to reach out to us via email at [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask]
