Got your sheet music online?
Well, any kind of online music collections, actually:
In light of the large number of sheet music collections now available online, I am engaged in a research project investigating the knowledge that institutions have of the use and users of their online music collections. For the purposes of my research, I have defined online music collections as any grouping of printed and/or manuscript music materials for which an institution has item-level descriptions available to the public via the Internet.
If you are involved with such a collection(s), I would be very grateful for your participation in a survey that asks about the use and users of the collection(s). It contains 14 questions and should take no more than 15 – 20 minutes to complete. Results will be coded and analyzed using Qualtrics software and to assure anonymity, no comments will be quoted in their entirety. I will be happy to share my results with anyone who is interested. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
