The purpose of this survey is to evaluate the common views on the current public library environment. As technology advances and is incorporated more into daily life, computers and Makerspaces have increased the noise level in some public libraries. Children's areas now encourage active play. Although some patrons benefit from the added services, others seem hesitant and dislike the loud distractions. They view the library as quiet time to read and study. Where do you fall?

This survey should only take 10 minutes and there will not be any type of compensation. All answers and results are anonymous.  Please answer all the questions to the best of your knowledge. All inquires can be sent to me at kay.behar@ou.edu.

Thank you,
