We will introduce participants to a set of survey instruments that were developed through large-scale tests with various Pathways projects and designed to help projects understand the use of their collections and the characteristics and preferences of their users. Along with the instruments we will provide participants with guidance as to how best to adapt and use the tools through strong research design, sampling, delivery and analysis methods.
