[Web4lib] Web 2.0 and Public Library Outreach

[Y.H.Lim-07 at student.lboro.ac.uk]

Hi,

Sincere apologies to those who have gotten similar emails before! I have
previously posted this on other lists!

I am currently undertaking an MSc in Information and Knowledge Management
and am researching the use of Web 2.0 technologies as outreach tools by
public libraries in various countries.

Thus, I am seeking views of public librarians on this matter and if you are
one, I would be immensely grateful if you could help me with a
questionnaire (link below). It takes about 20 minutes to complete
(depending on how much you would like to comment) and responses by 18th
July 2008 would be greatly appreciated.

I would be delighted to share (or discuss) the research outcomes with
you. Do leave your name and contact details as indicated in the
questionnaire if you are interested.

Your feedback and comments would be invaluable in aiding the exploration of
factors that might facilitate or impede success of using Web 2.0
technologies in public library outreach. All effort would be taken to
ensure anonymity of participants.

With many thanks!
