[SOA] A*CENSUS II: All Archivists Survey - Your Story. Our Future.

[Sherri Goudy]

Good Morning Members!


SOA is partnering with SAA and Ithaka S+R for the A*CENSUS II: All
Archivists Survey, a major nationwide survey of the archives profession
which has just launched. The All Archivists Survey aims to gather
information from every archivist and community memory worker in the US on
their demographics, educational backgrounds, job placements, and salaries,
as well as perspectives on key issues in the field.

A*CENSUS II seeks to understand how the knowledge and skills of archivists
and memory workers has evolved since the original A*CENSUS, conducted 17
years ago. By participating in this survey you are helping us understand
not only how far we’ve come, but where we need and want to go in the coming
years. A*CENSUS II findings will be shared widely with the profession, and
the more people who participate, the stronger the data and resulting action
will be.

The survey will take approximately 30 minutes to complete and can be
accessed by clicking on the following link:


https://surveys.ithaka.org/jfe/form/SV_4UfKQtGLT3mf2u2?Source=SOA


Your responses will be saved automatically, so you may exit and re-enter
the survey as many times as you wish. Your participation is voluntary; all
of your data are anonymous and will be reported in aggregate form only.

The All Archivists Survey is funded by the Institute for Museum and Library
Services <https://www.imls.gov/> and it was collaboratively developed by
the Society of American Archivists <https://www2.archivists.org/>, the
not-for-profit research organization Ithaka S+R <https://sr.ithaka.org/>,
and the A*CENSUS II working group whose members represent diverse sectors
and roles within the archives profession.

If you have questions or require technical assistance, please contact
Ithaka S+R by sending an email to surveys at ithaka.org.

Thank you in advance for your participation!  Your story is our future!
