<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Thanks to everyone for your help with the Digital Inclusion Survey. Our overall response rate is 26%, and they are looking for a higher response rate from city libraries
in particular. I have attached a spreadsheet that includes both the original survey sample, and other libraries that may wish to take the survey so you can see if you have done it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">The survey is sponsored by ALA, IMLS, and the Information Policy and Access Center of the University of Maryland.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">To see how survey data is utilized for policy efforts, check out
<a href="http://digitalinclusion.umd.edu">http://digitalinclusion.umd.edu</a>. The data is used by many national groups in their work to keep libraries in the front of policy debates such as e-rate and broadband. The data produced by the group is attractive
and useful.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
