It has been quite some time since we did a Journal of the POMA readership survey and the Publications Committee wants to make sure your opinions and suggestions are considered as the publication evolves to better serve you. Your participation will help us gain a clear understanding of what you expect to see and how you want to see it, which will help us produce a publication that is a true reflection of interests and concerns of POMA members.

The survey is anonymous unless you choose to identify yourself.

Thank you for participating in this survey - we sincerely appreciate your input.
