I am conducting a survey on library automation trends. The survey
aims to measure how well libraries are satisfied with their
automation systems and the companies or other organizations that
support them. It also attempts to get some indication of whether
libraries are looking favorably on open source software for their
automation system.

The survey works through the lib-web-cats directory within the
Library Technology Guides web site.  This approach eliminates the
need to retype any demographic information regarding your library.
You will just need to navigate to your library in lib-web-cats.

Here are the instructions on how to complete the survey:

I am hoping to get a very large response to this survey. I will
publish the results of the study in an upcoming article, provided I
get enough responses to ensure its validity.

Thanks in advance for taking the time to participate in the survey.

Please contact me directly if you have any problems accessing or 
completing the survey.
