Dear Library Staff Member,</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
We are a group of researchers from Rutgers University, the University of South Carolina, and the University of Kentucky conducting a survey about library staff experiences with and attitudes towards drag queen storytimes.
</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
Drag queen storytimes are a type of children’s programming that is becoming increasingly common in libraries. During these events, drag queens lead storytime by reading stories, singing songs, making crafts, and engaging in other activities typically included
in children’s storytimes.</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
</p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">
If you are a children’s librarian or other staff member involved in children’s services, you are invited to complete an online survey about your library’s experience with drag queen storytimes. We are interested in hearing from library staff who have experience
with this type of children’s programming, as well as library staff who do not have experience with this type of children’s programming.
