E-Book Survey to Psychology Staff

We recently carried out a short survey with Psychology library members to help us better understand the awareness, use and attitudes towards e-books.  On the whole staff were happy to use e-books although some did express a preference for the printed copy.  “I like e-books because they are so much quicker and easier to access when you need to find something out, however if I wanted to read the whole book cover to cover I find the paper version much easier to read.”   However, a significant number of respondents (31%) were unaware of the e-books that are available.  We will increase our promotion of e-books to ensure staff are able to get the material they need in the most time efficient way.

Thank you to everyone who responded to the short e-book survey.
