1. ABOUT YOU

Thank you for taking the time to fill out this survey. It will be used as part of my MA Museum Studies dissertation. My dissertation will examine how people collect online, and how online collecting might take place in the future.

It is useful to know a little about you before we begin to enquire after your collecting habits. This survey is completely anonymous.

EVEN IF YOU DON'T CONSIDER YOURSELF TO BE A ESPECIALLY FORMAL COLLECTOR, IT WILL BE EXTREMELY INTERESTING TO CONSIDER HOW YOU MIGHT TAKE OBJECTS FROM YOUR HOME AND PUT THEM ONLINE, AND TO CONSIDER HOW THE INTERNET INFLUENCES COLLECTING HABITS.
