Subject: SPNHC survey
The Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections (SPNHC) has designed a survey to gather opinions about SPNHC from our colleagues who are not SPNHC members. In 2006, a sessional committee on Long-Range Planning was formed. One of the committee's charges was to develop and conduct a survey of the SPNHC membership to learn more about its composition and membership perception of the society. This survey has been distributed to our membership. A companion survey was also created to help SPNHC understand how other members of the collections community perceive SPNHC and the activities in which we are involved. The survey is anonymous and consists of 18 questions which should take 5-10 minutes to complete. Please see <URL:http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=563253506155> and complete the survey by April 21, 2007; we plan to tabulate the results and report significant findings to the SPNHC membership at the Annual Meeting in May. If you work with natural history collections, we would very much appreciate your time in taking our survey. The feedback we receive will help formulate the future directions of the society.
