Hi all ~

On Q10, I'm not quite sure what we mean by the 2nd to last column.

Are we saying this is not currently done, but we would like to do it?  And then we could click Would like to outsource, as well?

So, one could combo:

* Currently done in-house and would like to outsource.
* Would like to add to our digital preservation program and would like to outsource.

But the other combos really only mean you are currently doing two things?


I guess, I'm stumbling because it seems that selecting two or more things can mean different things:

1) it can mean you are doing two things.
2) it can mean you aren't doing anything and you want to do something.

But, you can't say you are currently outsourcing, but want to do it in house

I wonder if this is better as two questions?

Or, move the Would like to add to our digital preservation program first, and add in a new column for "Would like to do in-house"?

On Q16: should we make it "and/or", rather than just or?

The survey looks great!

Subject: [NDSA-STANDARDS] please review revised version of the staffing survey

Hello,

I made some revisions to the dp staffing survey based on:
- feedback from our last WG call (defines FTE, gives example of other department, ability to indicate that an area isn't considered part of the dp function)
-  feedback from Mary Vardigan via email (primarily about the privacy text, but also some new options for the type of organization, and the wording of the question about the amount of files being preserved)
- best practice videos/manuals on building surveys (by Qualtrics and SurveyMonkey) Based on these I simplified how the number ranges were presented for the question on amount of content, simplified some question text, and added some more N/A and Other options.
- capability of Qualtrics - using a feature called "carry forward choices", they're now asked which areas are considered part of the dp function at their org, and in a follow up question they are asked the status of any they had selected in the previous question.

You can try out a test version of the survey with this link:  Try the test version of the survey.<https://harvard.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_7PdihNMVB9FnT6I>
Currently 2 of the questions are required (name of organization, type of organization) so you won't be able to advance to page 2 if you leave these blank.

Any and all feedback is welcome.

For the "real" survey, Jimi and I were thinking that a month should be sufficient time to keep the survey open once we're ready to publish it. That should give us enough time to look at the number of responses coming in and send out reminders if needed. Any objections to the month length?

Thanks,
Andrea
