How’s YOUR LIBRARY handled community survey data?
by Jeff Milo 06 Nov '25

06 Nov '25

Hey everyone, FERNDALE is gearing up to run a community *survey*, and we’re curious how others have managed the *data analysis* side of things. We’d especially love to hear from any libraries that have done this on a tighter budget or found creative, lower-cost ways to manage the data ;) Did you crunch the numbers in-house, team up with someone, or bring in outside help? Would love to hear about any tools, tips, or even some “wish we’d done this differently” stories... Thanks in advance! 💚📚🗃️ -- jeff(a)fadl.org Jeff Milo Marketing Coordinator Ferndale Area District Library -- jeff(a)fadl.org Jeff Milo Marketing Coordinator Ferndale Area District Library
