Library SurveyPosted Tue, 26 Aug 2008 15:48 by Computers & Website
The Altoona Area Public Library is conducting an organizational study to determine how best to continue to serve the Altoona-Blair County Community. As part of the study effort, a survey is being conducted to learn more about the Library's current and future patrons and the resources and reference materials they utilize.
As a member of the Altoona-Blair County Community, we are asking you to take a few minutes to complete this important survey. Individual findings are anonymous and overall results will be combined as part of the final study.
We thank you in advance for your participation and contribution to this study.
