Dear Library &amp; Corrections Professionals: <br /><br />Earlier this month, I posted this email about a survey I’m conducting for my master’s thesis at UCLA in the Department of Information Studies. Many heartfelt thanks to those who have taken the survey! However, I could still use some more responses, especially your comments on how the current economic crisis is affecting facilities&#039; services. <br /><br />If you work in, or provide services to a state, county or private juvenile correctional facility in California, I would be most grateful if you would complete this short survey &#040;about 10&#045;15 minutes&#041;: <br /><br />[www.surveymonkey.com] <br /><br />Additionally, I would appreciate it if you would please forward this link to other individuals, listservs &amp;/or forums where people may have relevant knowledge for my survey. <br /><br />Confidentiality will be strictly maintained &#045;&#045; no personal identifying information will be used in this study. If you have any questions or concerns about this survey, you may contact me, Susan Minobe, at sminobe@ucla.edu or my faculty advisor, Virginia Walter, at walter@gseis.ucla.edu. <br /><br />Many, many apologies for cross&#045;posting &amp; duplication, but thank you very much for your time and participation! <br /><br />Susan L. Minobe, MLIS 2009/10 <br />Graduate School of Education and Information Studies <br />University of California at Los Angeles

Dear Library &amp; Corrections Professionals: <br />I am conducting a research project in the course of completing my master’s thesis at UCLA in the Department of Information Studies. I wish to determine the state of library and literacy services and programs in juvenile correctional facilities in California. No nationwide survey has been done in nearly 30 years, since the “Survey of library service in local correctional facilities” in 1980, &amp; state &amp; local studies are equally sparse. <br /><br />If you work in, or provide services to a state, county or private juvenile correctional facility in California, I would be most grateful if you would complete this short survey &#040;about 10&#045;15 minutes&#041;:<br /><br />https://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=5uYqC7by_2bQTMWjsxU630uw_3d_3d <br /><br />Additionally, if you know a particular individual, or know of a relevant listserv or discussion forum where people have relevant knowledge for my survey, I would appreciate it if you would please forward this link. <br /><br />Confidentiality will be strictly maintained &#045;&#045; no personal identifying information will be used in this study. If you have any questions or concerns about this survey, you may contact me, Susan Minobe, at sminobe@ucla.edu or my faculty advisor, Virginia Walter, at walter@gseis.ucla.edu.<br /><br />Many, many apologies for cross&#045;posting &amp; duplication, but thank you very much for your time and participation! <br /><br />Susan L.
