CAW Survey: Past, Present and Future Engagements

As part of a strategic planning initiative, the Community Archiving Workshop (CAW) Collective seeks your input on how both the model and the group can best serve your community collections.

Please note many of the questions allow for multiple selections. The survey should take 5-10 minutes.

Thank you for your feedback! We would love to send you a mystery schwag bag of CAW goodies in gratitude for your time and consideration. If you'd like a gift, please include your mailing address below!
