governmental, corporate, and public archives, libraries, museums, historical societies, and other institutions utilizing the
<i>2018 Standardized Measures and Metrics for Public Services in <em><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Archival Repositories and</span></em> Special Collections Libraries</i>.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">The purpose of the survey is to gather information about which measures are being collected or not collected, which metrics are in use, and the types of data collection tools or systems institutions are using
to implement the standards. The survey also seeks to gather information related to the readiness of institutions to contribute data to a national survey of comparative measures and metrics, as well as training needs. The results will be used to determine how
to best support the ongoing implementation of the <i>2018 Standardized Measures and Metrics for Public Services in
<em><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Archival Repositories and</span></em> Special Collections Libraries</i> and to improve outreach, training opportunities, and advocacy around the standards. This survey has received an IRB determination and
has been designated as non-human subject research.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
