Okay, here's my own reverse survey for you. :) What is "web services", what job description or role or responsibilities does "a librarian planning to work in web services" mean to you? Because I'm not sure myself, nor am I sure everyone else who uses that term agrees. My answer to your survey depends on what we're talking about. And I have NO idea what "w/e" means or stands for.
