Since then, hospital libraries and librarians have faced significant changes including downsizing, position and\/or library elimination, and mergers of hospitals into systems. In an effort to develop and implement effective advocacy for hospital libraries and plan for future services, current benchmarking data is needed.<\/p>\n<p>We ask only one response per library. The survey consists of 58 questions and will take approximately 20 minutes. For your convenience we recommend you gather the pertinent information (e.g.-usage statistics, budget, bed counts, staffing) prior to beginning the survey.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you in advance for participating in the survey.
