Hello,
I, along with Leslie Street, a reference librarian at the Georgetown
University Law Library, am conducting research regarding collection
development cancellation strategies at both law firm and academic law
libraries. The linked survey is designed to be completed by law firm
librarians, familiar with collection development policies and procedures
at their law firms. Additionally, the survey also inquires about usage
of a few particular types of resources. The survey takes approximately
10 minutes to complete. We hope that the results of this survey will
offer a much clearer picture regarding decisions being made across the
profession about the changing scope of our collections as well as the
type of material being collected.
We hope to have preliminary survey results gathered by April 30, 2009.
We would appreciate if you could take a few minutes to complete the
survey. Your participation will be very helpful in allowing law
librarians to understand in a more empirical fashion what our colleagues
are doing at other institutions, so that we can better tackle common
problems together.
Thank you for your participation. The survey can be found at:
