As it did in FY 2005 and FY 2009, the UConn Libraries will be collecting data in FY 2014 related to library use in accordance with the federal government\u2019s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-21. The same survey is used at many research universities in the United States. This year\u2019s survey at UConn will run from July, 2013 through June 2014 and will consist of three data collection activities:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. An in-house user survey in HBL that will take place two hours each month at randomly selected times. The in-house user survey is being coordinated by the Statistics and Assessment Team (Carole Dyal, Kate Fuller, Susanna Cowan, and Joel Atkinson). This survey is intended to gather data on library use from individuals who enter HBL during a survey period.<\/li>\n
  2. A web-based survey that will be presented to users of e-journals, e-books, and databases during the same two hours each month as the in-house survey. Users will be required to complete a very brief survey (four clicks) before they are connected to one of the Libraries\u2019 e-resources.<\/li>\n
  3. Library staff who enter service data into RIO have been asked to indicate the purpose of use for each service they provide over the course of the year.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In addition to being used in the University\u2019s submission to the government, this data will be helpful in demonstrating to the Provost the extent to which the Libraries support the University\u2019s research and educational programs.<\/p>\n

    The schedule for the in-house and web-based surveys are as follows:<\/p>\n

    \u00a0July 25, Thursday 2 p.m. \u2013 4 p.m.<\/p>\n
