Further to our participation last January in the JISC National E-Books Observatory user survey, the Library is now taking part in a follow up survey to see how things have moved forward and how attitudes and behaviour towards e-books have changed. You are under no obligation whatsoever to take part in this survey. Any information you give us will be held securely and we will under no circumstances reveal any findings other than at a highly aggregated level. We are collecting the data through a third-party, Survey Monkey, and you can check their privacy policy here: Survey Monkey privacy policy.
If you wish to take the survey, you can find it here: JISC Survey.
You can find out more about the survey on the library website here

Please see this note from the Library Leadership Team:
We are grateful to everyone who has shown interest in the Library Open Forum but at this busy time, and with some of you facing exams, it has become clear that this is not the best time for the Forum to be held so we have decided to cancel the 16th January meeting. We are sorry for any inconvenience this causes and of course we shall answer all questions you have sent us as well as any further questions you may have.
We shall post your questions and our responses on our website www.imperial.ac.uk/library from 19 January.
(If you would still like to submit a question please email Alice Ashley-Smith on
a.ashley-smith@imperial.ac.uk)
With best wishes for a successful 2009,
