The Data Dude: Public Library Survey

This is a friendly first of the year reminder to those who have yet to start or complete your IMLS Public Library Survey. The deadline is February 19, 2016. The survey is required for your library to receive state aid if you are accredited. If you aren’t accredited, you still have an incentive to complete the survey ($200), called Dollar$ for Data. The link to log in to the survey is here. If you forgot your password, send me an e-mail and I will get it to you. According to the last published statistics by IMLS, Nebraska was second to last (behind Puerto Rico) in response rates to the public library survey, so we need your help to improve our percentage. If you have any questions about the survey, or need any help, please contact me.
