[Lib-helig-l] New Librarians International/National Association Activity and Career Attitudes Survey

Posted on behalf of Loida Garcia-Febo and   Robin Kear

Dear colleagues:

In 2007, individuals from five continents answered a survey about new
librarians, leadership, library associations and professional futures.
Results including a proposed plan of action were published under the
title "International Perspectives of the New Librarian Experience,"
(Feliciter, Issue #2, 2007). This year we are following up on that
survey and kindly asking for help in finding out more about the
perspectives of new librarians from different regions of the world.

Recently, library associations from a number of countries have
developed various initiatives to introduce new librarians to their
group's existence, include them in their activities, develop their
careers, and encourage them to stay in the profession. This brief,
general survey intends to measure the success of these initiatives.
Findings will be presented at library associations' conferences and
discussed in journal articles.

Please, take a few minutes to answer the survey. It will be available
until March 15. Answers are confidential. Participants will remain
anonymous.
