Surveys
We have expertise in surveying the many populations our partners serve, analyzing the results, and providing expert guidance.
Currently, our local surveys program helps libraries understand the perceptions of their faculty members, undergraduate, and graduate/professional students as they make strategic plans for their campus.
S+R spent time with us, learning our background, and developed an additional survey module that addressed perfectly what we were trying to learn: how our faculty approach online teaching and what type of support they are looking for.
