[Peter Suber]

[Forwarding from Marianne Buehler, who added this description in a separate
email:  "Our survey is focused on multiple intersections that encompass a
variety of sustainable activities in academic libraries, including infusing
scholarly communication into the curriculum and promoting open access to
research."  --Peter Suber.]

Please accept this invitation to participate in the *Library as Partner in
Creating Curriculum for Sustainability* survey.

This survey explores the level of engagement of academic libraries and
information studies schools in the emerging focus of educating for
sustainability on university and college campuses across North America. The
expected benefits associated with your involvement include creating a
better understanding of the role of libraries in educating for
sustainability and may also reveal some opportunities for further research.

We are committed to analyzing the results and sharing key findings of this
survey. We anticipate the survey will take 10-20 minutes to complete. There
are no foreseeable risks associated with this survey. The confidentiality
of your responses will be protected.

Please share this survey with colleagues in academic libraries and LIS
schools. Those who complete the survey may be entered in a random drawing
at the close of the survey for the following prizes: One of ten Better
World Books gift certificates valued at $20 each and one of ten Starbucks
gift certificates valued at $10 each. If you wish to participate in the
drawing, please provide your email address at the end of the survey. The
survey closes on May 2, 2012.
