Survey Says . . . Book of the Week
Every September the Board of Directors and Associates of The Haiku Foundation are sent a survey. Their responses help to guide our growth and direction. We’d like to broaden our input, and so we’ll be asking you to respond to a series of questions, one per week, over the next half-year. Your replies will be weighed in our assessment of our performance.
Today’s question: The Book of the Week Project
The Haiku Foundation features a different book each week on the blog. Selections from the book are posted along with a copy of the book’s cover. All such offerings are gathered in the Book of the Week Archive. When available, we provide a link to the complete book in our Digital Library.
Please assess how well The Haiku Foundation is delivering on this topic. Indicate your assessment of our performance to date by choosing one of the options:

Please feel free to add additional comments. Thank you in advance for your consideration, and for helping us make The Haiku Foundation a better resource.

Dear Garry, Thank you. If I had not been a teacher, I would have loved to be a librarian. When we moved back to Wisconsin, I felt more at home again when I got my library card.

I don’t know about all the major databases anymore, in a specific sense. When I taught at NEIU, I served on the library committee. When I taught students how to write research papers in special education, we had a class at the library. The staff taught them all that was available to them. With my volunteer work in education at THF, one of my hopes is that THF will be listed as a resource on course outlines. I see the entire site as educational, and I know that is another question.

Thanks again – I know this work takes a great deal of time. Ellen

Excellent. Only problem is archived books are difficult to download. Content offered is the very best. Regards.

Excellent – and thank you. I hope this project has found its way to many library and other educational websites.
