[Eril-l] Academic Librarians’ Perceptions of LIS Preprint Repositories: Invitation to Participate in a Short Research Survey

[Electronic Resources in Libraries discussion list]

Hello,

My name is Casey Hoeve, Associate University Librarian Content, Access, and
Open Licensing at McMaster University. Together with my colleague Nicole
Doro, Teaching and Learning Librarian at McMaster University, we are
working on a research project studying academic librarians’ usage and
perspectives on preprint repositories. In order to collect data, we are
circulating this survey to academic librarians in North America with the
hope that you will be willing to share your perspectives.

Your participation in this research has the potential to elucidate
understanding about preprint repository usage and uptake among academic
librarians. More broadly, participating in this research helps to support
efficient scholarly communication and increased access to information.

The survey is hosted on Limesurvey and should take approximately 10 minutes
to fill out. Surveys are anonymous, and all questions are optional.
Forwarding this email and survey to academic librarian colleagues and peers
would be greatly appreciated.

If you would like to participate, please click here to be redirected to the
survey <https://surveys.mcmaster.ca/limesurvey/index.php/448156?lang=en>.
You will be presented with a Letter of Information followed by a consent
button before the survey begins.

If you have any further questions or would like more information, you may
also contact the Primary Investigator of this study, Casey Hoeve, by email
at hoevec at mcmaster.ca or Nicole Doro at dorone at mcmaster.ca.


Thank you sincerely for your time and consideration,

Casey Hoeve and Nicole Doro

"*it's almost impossible to read a fine thing without wanting to do a fine
thing*."

-John Steinbeck, The Pastures of Heaven



"*There is no other occupation upon earth that is so appropriate to every
time and every age and every place. Reading stimulates the young and
diverts the old, increases one's satisfaction when things are going well,
and when they are going badly provides refuge and solace. It is a delight
in the home; it can be fitted in with public life; throughout the night, on
journeys, in the country, it is the companion that never lets me down.*"
