The Idaho Commission for Libraries (ICfL) is seeking feedback from the Idaho library community through an online survey. As we face the possibility of tighter budgets, ICfL staff want to ensure we prioritize our resources to meet your most critical needs.

Our Idaho Library Needs Assessment Survey is open until March 31. It includes 18 multiple-choice questions and three optional open-ended questions. We invite all members of the Idaho library community to take the survey: staff, directors, managers, trustees, and volunteers. Please share the survey with your colleagues and encourage them to complete it.

The survey is anonymous, so we encourage you to be as honest as possible in your responses. We ask a few general demographic questions about your library and your role to help us interpret the data and identify patterns. Aggregate responses will be shared with ICfL staff, the Idaho Board of Library Commissioners, and the Idaho library community.

This survey is the first phase of our multiyear needs assessment project. We plan to gather feedback from the Idaho library community through multiple methods over the next few years.

Thank you for your time and effort to complete our survey.
