Library survey packs potential cash award
Want a chance to win a $20 voucher for the college store? All you have to do is help evaluate Castleton State College’s library services by filling out library service quality survey that is being e-mailed campus-wide. Librarian Sandy Duling said the survey is to help library officials understand student perceptions and expectations of the library so changes can be made to better serve them.
The CSC library is one of hundreds of academic libraries across the country conducting this “LibQUAL+” survey. Survey results will be compared to results from other libraries to identify best practices.
The answers are confidential. No identifying links between responses and individuals will be retained and only aggregated data will be reported, Duling said. If willing participants have trouble with the link e-mail Duling at sandy.duling@castleton.edu.
Those who participate are eligible to be entered in a random drawing for one of 20 $20 College Store cash cards. You can enter your name in the drawing by including your e-mail address at the end of the survey.

We made it, Mom
I remember distinctly the first time I was asked what I wanted to go to college for. My 6th grade science teacher posed it to our class (I guess start ‘em young, right?), and of course I had no idea. Probably for a lot of the same reasons as most of my young peers, but […]

I always told them the same […]
