Himmelfarb Library will be conducting a brief entry survey of its users at selected one-hour time frames during the remainder of September and early October.
Individuals entering the library will be stopped briefly to identify their user category (1st year, 2nd year, faculty, etc) and reason for library visit (research, computer use, studying, etc.) by staff members stationed at the Library's Access Monitor Desk. There will be nothing to fill out, with only a brief responses to the two questions requested.
We appreciate your willingness to take a few seconds to help us better understand who our frequent users are and the purpose the library serves for those users. We thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation!
