Take the survey of library use of QR Codes and Receive a Free Copy of the Report

[Cary Gordon]

If your URL is 300 characters long, or, like me, easily mixed up, you might consider using a URL shortener, be it a service (bit.ly, etc.) or something in-house. This is aside from the QR code question.

The international study is open to public, academic and special libraries of all nations. The study is only open to libraries that have already used QR codes, even if in a very minimal way.

The institutional name of participants is listed but responses are aggregated or not attributed to particular respondents.  To take the survey follow the link below:
