The Association for Rural and Small Libraries is partnering with Brooklyn Public Library to distribute an important survey on cardholder signup policies at public libraries across the United States. The survey should take about 25 minutes to complete.



Purpose: By responding to this survey, you are contributing to the first known sampling of public library card access trends across the United States. The survey collects data about your library's cardholder signup process for adults and children/teenagers, as well as how these policies and procedures are revised. Brooklyn Public Library will share findings in a report issued to the field in spring 2024; and will convene a working group next summer to publish a framework for library leaders of best practices around cardholder access.



Ensure YOUR library is represented!

[Take the Survey]


Survey Audience: The survey is intended for anyone who currently works or recently worked (within the past 12 months) at a public library in the United States and who is familiar with their library's cardholder signup process. Your personal information will be kept confidential.



Multiple organizations are distributing this survey; therefore, you may also receive an invitation to participate elsewhere, or you may see a link for this survey in a library publication or forum. We ask that individuals take this Library Card Access Survey only once (however we can accept responses from multiple individuals on behalf of the same library).



Participants may provide their name and email address to be entered into a drawing for a chance to win a $25 (USD) gift card from Giftogram, which allows recipients to select from a list of retailers. One hundred (100) gift cards will be issued.



Questions? If you have questions about this project, please contact Amy Mikel, Director of Customer Experience at Brooklyn Public Library, at amikel at bklynlibrary.org<http://arsl.memberclicks.net/message2/link/2ef6f4c0-5a04-4a4d-b2f7-ed66ef2b6dcf/7>. If you have any technical questions about this survey, please feel free to contact Trevor Schlusemann from Avenue M Group (the market research firm administering the survey) at schlusemann at avenuemgroup.com<http://arsl.memberclicks.net/message2/link/2ef6f4c0-5a04-4a4d-b2f7-ed66ef2b6dcf/8>.
