Please excuse cross-postings.



The employment of term-limited archivists, often called “project
archivists,” is a common labor practice in libraries and archives. We
invite participants to participate in an online survey, written in support
of a CLIR publication on Best Practices and Case Studies for archival term
positions, which aims to determine the main reasons that repositories hire
project archivists.



The survey is intended for hiring managers, unit heads, directors,
administrators, and anyone else making hiring decisions or engaged in
strategic planning related to project archivists. It should take
approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. * We ask that student employees,
volunteers, and interns not participate.* For convenience, a PDF of the
survey is attached to this email and available for viewing prior to
beginning the survey.



There are minimal risks associated with the survey. Participants may refuse
to participate or withdraw from the survey at any time. Participants will
not be compensated for participating in this voluntary survey. There are no
direct benefits to participants, but there is the potential for archivists
and employers to contribute to discussions on the design of mutually
beneficial short-term employment conditions.



At the end of the survey, individuals may self-select to be considered to
participate in a follow up interview by sharing their name and contact
information. The interview will last approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Volunteers for the follow up interview risk the loss of confidentiality by
disclosing their personal information to the research team. This
information will not be shared outside the research team.



This research study has been reviewed and approved by the Institutional
Review Board at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.



Please proceed to the survey:
