Dear Librarian, 

It's been over a decade since Library Journal conducted a job
satisfaction survey. That study, in 1994, brought attention to the
graying of librarianship and has been quoted widely in both government
and media. It also unleashed passionate discussion of salaries, image,
and job challenges and persuaded us to do two other surveys, on non-MLS
librarians and on librarians of color. 

It's time for another wide-ranging survey of the field-and, like that
earlier study, published November 1, 1994--we want it to be more than a
mere statistical report. We hope you'll participate by clicking on the
link below (or copy and paste it into your browser). The survey should
take approximately 10 minutes to complete.

Library Journal. As a thank you for participating, your library will be
entered into a drawing to win one of two $250 American Express Gift
Cards.

Thank you in advance for your time. Please share this link with your

Sincerely,
Francine Fialkoff
