1 Discussion:
2
3 Agenda Item 6.A., Review final draft of survey questions. Ms. Mast suggested changing the
4 rating scale of the survey to a five-point scale with "1" being "very unlikely" and "5" being
5 "very likely" because it would require less explanation to the respondents and be easier for
6 the respondents to recall.
7
8 Ms. Mason added that a numeric scale would increase the survey's statistical confidence.
9 She said that respondents do not have difficulty with a five-point scale.
10
11 Mr. Peebles referred to the question about using other libraries and for what purpose. He said
12 that this would assist the Board in reviewing the other library collections to see what drew the
13 public to that particular Library.
14
15 Ms. Mason stated that the survey will be carefully scrutinized not to be perceived as
16 redundant by the respondent. Mr. Peebles questioned whether questions #6 and #8 are
17 redundant. Ms. Mason responded that on the survey, they will be careful not to use the word
18 "purpose" to prevent problems.
19
20 Mr. Polasek indicated that if the Board was in consensus the consultant will proceed with the
21 survey. The Board agreed. Ms. Mason reported that more information regarding the survey
22 will be presented to the Board at their next meeting on June 23, 1999.
