Go Digital Campaign Survey Collection Assistants:
This research is being conducted to support the Go Digital Campaign, a new ongoing citywide awareness campaign that showcases the Library's massive digital collection to District Residents. The Library seeks to increase digital awareness and usage.
The survey collection will take place beginning in July and will conclude in September, in multiple library locations throughout the District of Columbia - assignment locations will be confirmed prior to the start date.
Volunteers will be assigned to a specific library location to conduct in-person survey collection using an iPad (training will be provided).
