Thank you for the feedback!

brookenslibrary — Wed, 25 Apr 2012 14:47:47 +0000

The library has been surveying the UIS community for feedback during the month of April. We had 472 responses to the online survey and 133 responses to the Snapshot Day survey. All we can say in response is THANKS!

Your feedback allows us to know what we are doing well, and how we can improve. April 8-14 was National Library Week and without YOU there would be no libraries. Continue to dream big with us and we will do our best to make it better for you!

Also, congratulations to the winners of the survey prize drawings! If your name was not selected this time, keep in mind that we will have more opportunities to win prizes in the future.
