The Librarian Parlor<\/a>, aka @LibParlor<\/a>,\u00a0is a space for conversing, sharing expertise, and asking questions about the process of developing, pursuing, and publishing library research. Thanks to funding from the Institute of Museum and Library Services,\u00a0we are building LibParlor Online Learning<\/a>,\u00a0an openly accessible and interactive online curriculum for academic library workers and MLIS students who have experience with or interest in conducting research. In order to inform this work, we are conducting a study through a survey\u00a0and focus groups to learn about the experiences, educational needs, and institutional constraints of academic library workers. The survey\u00a0 takes approximately 15-30 minutes to complete through an online form.<\/p>\n You can access the survey here<\/a>.\u00a0This survey will be open until\u00a0Friday,\u00a0April 8, 2022<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Once you complete the survey, you will be asked if you are interested in participating in a focus group to discuss your experiences more in depth. You will also have the opportunity to sign up to be considered for attendance at our Curriculum Planning Forum in May 2022, with all expenses covered. If you are not interested in completing the survey but would like to receive grant updates or be considered for the forum,\u00a0please\u00a0express your interest using the LPOL interest form<\/a>.<\/p>\n
