<p class=MsoNormal>Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>My name is Ann Myers, and I am writing on behalf of myself
and Melissa Hubbard. We are conducting a survey of rare book catalogers
in order to determine the state of the profession regarding policies and
procedures created in response to the recent professional discourse about
“hidden collections.” We are sending this email to the
EXLIBRIS-L and DCRM-L listservs in an attempt to reach as many rare book
cataloging professionals as possible. We apologize for cross-posting.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This survey will take approximately 20-30 minutes to
complete. We invite you to respond if you are responsible for the
creation and/or administration of rare book cataloging policies at your
institution. Participation in this survey is completely voluntary and
anonymous, and all responses will be kept confidential. The survey will
be available for three weeks, during which time we will send out 2 reminders.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>You can reach the survey by clicking on the link
below. If you have any questions about this research, please contact me
at (618) 453-1499 or <a href="mailto:amyers@lib.siu.edu">amyers@lib.siu.edu</a>.
I appreciate your time and attention.<o:p></o:p></p>
