Guest Post: Call for participation in survey regarding Librarian's Perceptions of Union Participation

Today we have a guest post from Mary-Michelle Moore and Heather Hughes of the University of California, Santa Barbara Library:

You are invited to participate in a survey about the benefits and effects of participating in your library’s union. Your responses will help us better understand how participation in union activity informs your workplace morale and professional identity. This questionnaire should take no more than 30 minutes to complete and will ask about your experience with your library’s union, your participation with the union, and how union participation or non-participation affects your interactions with colleagues and morale.  

We are employing a mixed-methods approach to our research and may want to follow up with individuals to learn more about your experiences. If you are willing to speak with us further, please provide your name and contact information. Names and identifying information will not be associated with individual answers, nor will personal identifying information appear in the final paper.

We invite you to take the survey if you work as an academic librarian in the United States.  Please feel free to share.  We anticipate collecting responses until June 15th.
