For the attention of university library staff: Help us build a picture of cybersecurity challenges

Dear ER&L members
The Scholarly Networks Security Initiative (SNSI<https://www.snsi.info/>) is an initiative that brings together librarians, IT teams, publishers and institutions to combat the threat of cyber-crime. SNSI has commissioned Shift Insight<http://www.shift-insight.co.uk/>, a market research company, to conduct research with librarians. The work follows on from similar study they conducted in 2021, and will help SNSI understand attitudes in the academic community to a range of network security issues and the result will be a public report to inform the whole community. They are keen to hear from librarians from around the world.

You do not need to be an expert in network issues or cybersecurity to take part, we want to know what all librarians think. Your answers will contribute to creating a full picture of the concerns and risks that face the higher education sector currently.
If you are interested in participating, please click the link below to fill out our short survey below. To say thanks, we'd like to enter you into a prize draw to win £500 (or local equivalent). It should take you no more than 10 minutes to complete.
