Survey on preservation statistics--addendum

The Preservation Statistics Survey FY2014 survey deadline has been
extended! You now have until Friday, March 20, 2015 to complete the
survey at

    <URL:http://www.ala.org/alcts/resources/preservation/presstats>

Count what you do and show preservation counts! The FY14
questionnaire focuses on production-based preservation activities,
including conservation treatment, general preservation activities,
preservation reformatting and digitization, digital preservation and
digital asset management.  The survey, now in its third year, is a
project of the Preservation and Reformatting Section (PARS) of the
Association of Library Collections and Technical Services (ALCTS),
and is based on the Preservation Statistics survey program
coordinated by the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) from
1984-2004.

Why should your institution participate in the FY2014 Preservation
Statistics Survey?

    The FY2014 Survey is significantly shorter than previous years,
    asking only for production data--information you already have
    for annual reporting or other internal planning and evaluation.

    Preservation Statistics data helps you and the wider
    preservation community advocate for preservation programming and
    activities, demonstrating how programs compare to peers as well
    as areas of strength and need.

    Your participation can help us achieve a representative body of
    preservation programs, which means better analysis and
    examination of trends in preservation programming.  To continue
    the Preservation Statistics Project, we need seventy-five
    institutions to respond to this FY14 survey.  To date, we have
    15 respondents.  We need 60 more institutions to respond to the
    survey by March 20, 2-15 in order to continue the project for
    FY15.
