Hello all, I am seeking participants for a research study designed to explore the current use and applications of low-cost and flexible “maker” technologies (such as the Raspberry Pi and Arduino) employed in libraries to solve various problems (e.g., counting patrons, hosting an interactive informational display, among others). If you choose to take part in this study, you would be asked to do the following: 1) complete a brief demographic survey, which includes your prior or current use of single-board or microcontrollers within a library, and 2) participate in a virtual interview held via Zoom. The interview session will take approximately 45-60 minutes and will be audio-recorded. In order to participate in this study, individuals must be 18 years of age or older, are currently using or have used a single-board computer or microcontroller to solve a problem within a library setting, currently are (or were at the time of the project) a librarian or employed by a library, and have access to a computer with Zoom, internet access, a microphone, and (optionally) a camera. Approximately 20 participants will be recruited for this study. Participants will receive a $75 Amazon.com gift card at the conclusion of the session. If you are interested in participating or have any questions about the study, please contact Dr. Monica Maceli at [log in to unmask] to schedule your session.
