[LM_NET] Survey about School Librarians and Technology Integration

[Palm Center <fsupalmcenter@GMAIL.COM>]

Dear School Librarians,

The Florida State University PALM Center would like to invite you to
participate in a survey. We are interested in gathering information from
school librarians on how they are integrating technology in their
schools.  While
there are no direct benefits to individual subjects, we hope the information
obtained will help national organizations, policy makers, and researchers
further articulate this role. The survey will take approximately 15 minutes
to complete.

Your participation in this study is completely voluntary.  There are no
foreseeable risks associated with this project.  However, if you feel
uncomfortable answering any questions, you can stop answering questions on
the survey at any point without being penalized.

If you agree to participate in the study, you will be entered into a drawing
for a $100 Amazon.com gift card. If you decide NOT to participate in this
study, you will NOT be penalized. Research staff will only use your name and
address (if provided by you) to send you additional information or for the
drawing for a $100 Amazon gift card, if you indicate you are willing.

It is very important for us to learn your opinions so that we can better
articulate the role of the school librarian in technology integration. Your
survey responses will be strictly confidential to the extent provided by
law.  Your name and contact information will not be shared with anyone
outside the research project. All information from the study will be
presented in the aggregate: no individual responses will be used.

If you would like to participate in this research project, the survey can be
accessed at http://palm.pnmi.com/. Please complete the survey by July 1,
2010. We are sending this to a number of lists. Please excuse the cross
posting.  Thank you for your help.



Sincerely,

Nancy Everhart, Director, PALM Center

Marcia Mardis, Associate Director, PALM Center
